>>I am not sure about v0.80.6-1 but in v0.80.7 the --allow-experimental-feature option is not required. I have increased pg_num and pgp_num in v0.80.7 without any issues. >on how big cluster, how long did it take to recovery from this change? The largest pool was roughly 200TB. It took less than 30 minutes. I took a look at the changelog between the version you're running and the version I performed this change on, as far as I can tell, nothing was changed that made this feature non-experimental. http://ceph.com/docs/master/release-notes/ >>It may be safer to make the change incrementally rather than all at once. Since v0.72, ceph does not allow extreme changes in pg_num sizes. >It make sense, thanks. >>Thanks, >>Jacob From: ceph-users [mailto:ceph-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of tombo Sent: Tuesday, March 10, 2015 2:41 PM To: ceph-users@xxxxxxxx Subject: increase pg num Hello, I'm running debian 8 with ceph 0.80.6-1 firefly in production and I need to double the count of pgs. I've found that it was experimantal feature, is it safe now? Is there still --allow-experimental-feature switch for ceph osd pool set {pool-name} pg_num {pg_num} command ?
