Hello Anthony! The idea behind is to keep osds (with data on HDD) running in 
case of meta device goes down. For sure, my test lab with md Raid1 on 2 NS 
within the same NVME device is just to bring the idea and it has no sense at 
all in real world. In prod I mean to use, for instance, nvme0n1 and nvme1n1 
united into raid1.
And the problem is that ceph-volume tries to get blkid, which is obviosly none 
on /dev/md127. That is my intention to modify the code.

Indeed, but I use fast SSD devices for wal and db.

BTW, don't you like HBA's? Cuz you did sigh when mentioned HBA?:) Why? Cuz of 
price?
