OCS / ODF OSD removal fails with error: unknown parameter name "FORCE_OSD_REMOVAL"

Issue

• This is ODF 4.10.8 and we are trying to remove an OSD following steps from
  Steps to replace failed OSD in Red Hat OpenShift Container Storage 4.X
  or
  in the ODF 4.10 Documentation : Replacing devices

• This command

  oc process -n openshift-storage ocs-osd-removal -p FAILED_OSD_IDS=3 |oc create -n openshift-storage -f -
  

  creates a job and a removal pod , but the removal pod ocs-osd-removal-job is running and does not complete.

• Find out why by looking into its logs oc logs ocs-osd-removal-job

  Notice this pod is waiting for the "ceph osd purge osd.3" command to finish.

• Delete the job oc delete job job_name , that will delete the removal job also, and try again with the option FORCE_OSD_REMOVAL , but this may fail with this error:

  # oc process -n openshift-storage ocs-osd-removal -p FORCE_OSD_REMOVAL=true -p FAILED_OSD_IDS=3 | oc create -f -
  error: unknown parameter name "FORCE_OSD_REMOVAL"
