Thanks in > advance. The "local PGs" feature used by -o is deprecated and removed (depending on the release). Experience with the feature showed that it did not behave well, and we currently consider trying to manually manage data allocations to osds a bad idea. If you want to manage how your data is located and replicated, you are better off using pools with custom crushmap rules. This allows for placement policies that are still flexible enough to handle osd failures and balancing. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
