I don't think ceph-disk has support for separating block.db and block.wal yet 
(?).
You need to create the cluster manually by running mkfs.
Or if you have old mkcephfs script (which sadly deprecated) you can point the 
db / wal path and it will create cluster for you. I am using that to configure 
bluestore on multiple devices.
Alternatively, vstart.sh also has support for multiple device bluestore config 
I believe.

Thanks & Regards

Subject: [ceph-users] Multi-device BlueStore testing

I would like to do some BlueStore testing using multiple devices like mentioned 
here:

https://www.sebastien-han.fr/blog/2016/05/04/Ceph-Jewel-configure-BlueStore-with-multiple-devices/

However, simply creating the block.db and block.wal symlinks and pointing them 
at empty partitions doesn't appear to be enough:

I originally used 'ceph-disk prepare --bluestore' to create the OSD, but I feel 
like there is some kind of initialization step I need to do when moving the db 
and wal over to an NVMe device.  My google searches just aren't turning up 
much.  Could someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Bryan
