Specifying this is awkward. In [mon] or [global], osd pg bits = N osd pgp bits = N where N is the the number of bits to shift 1 to the left. So for 1024 PGs, you'd do 10. (What it's actually doing is MIN(1, num_osds) << N. The default N is 6, so you're probaby seeing 64 PGs per pool by default.) sage > > On Tue, Feb 5, 2013 at 6:40 AM, ArtemGr <artemciy@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Martin B Nielsen <martin <at> unity3d.com> writes: > >> Hi, > >> > >> Looking at: > >> http://ceph.com/docs/master/rados/operations/pools/ > >> > >> It has this description roughly in the middle: > >> > >> --------------- > >> Important > >> Increasing the number of placement groups in a pool after you create > >> the pool is still an experimental feature in Bobtail (v 0.56).
