So I got a Luminous Ceph cluster deployed and everything was working (after fighting with the beta external storage features, no more custom Kube Controllers, yay!). Then I tried to actually get a test deployment up, but I kept on seeing the following errors on my nodes:

```
```log
libceph: mon0 172.16.0.104:6789 feature set mismatch, my 106b84a842a42 < server's 40106b84a842a42, missing 400000000000000
```

I originally thought it was due to running Luminous (the ceph provisioner that I was using targeted Jewel) so I created my own image with Luminous binaries. Same message as before, no change from what I could tell. My next idea was the image format was to new (stupid thought in retrospective, *shrug*). No change on that error message.

Looking deeper into the error message (which I should have done before). This error occurred from a monitor after image construction, but before image mount. The error was complaining that the feature flag `400000000000000` was missing support by my client. This feature turns out to mean basically `CRUSH_TUNABLES5` with the following requirements (Google is great at this):

```
```log
v10.0.2 (jewel) or later
Linux kernel version v4.5 or later (for the file system and RBD kernel clients)
```

And that's my problem. I'm assuming that Kubernetes is using the kernel module to mount rbd's, but my nodes are running Ubuntu 16.04 with the following kernel:

```

In the above setup, each volume represents a single logical "partition", but in reality each of these volumes spans two physical drives. These volumes are great under Windows, but not so useful to the BIOS attempting to bootstrap a OS. To make it possible for the BIOS to start Windows we need to create real partitions for each of our mirror volumes.

First let's use `detail disk` to make sure we target the correct volumes.
```
```bat
DISKPART> select disk 0
DISKPART> detail disk
```

In the picture, `volume 0` is our `System Recovery` volume and `volume 1` is our OS volume, different configurations may be different.

```
```bat
DISKPART> select disk 0
DISKPART> select volume 1
DISKPART> retain
