Thanks Michael for your response.

Could you also please help in understanding

#1  On my ceph cluster , how can i confirm if journal is on block device
partition or on file ?

#2  Is it true that by default ceph-deploy creates journal on dedicated
partition and data on another partition if i use the command  ceph-deploy
osd create ceph-node1:/dev/sdb

I want to understand the concept of journals creation in Ceph. Hope you
will help me.
