Hi Nigel,
When I use K+M hosts in the EC pool, if M hosts get down, still have K hosts active, Can I continue write data to the pool ? Since there only have K hosts, not K+M hosts, When client write a data to EC pool , Primary OSD will split the data to K data pieces,but how about the M coding pieces? is it still be calculated and where it should be hold ?

Yes.
The default is equivalent to "no two chunks in the same host". When you have K+M chunks, it means you need at least K+M hosts. It is however better to have K+M+1 hosts or more because CRUSH may fail to map otherwise. You can test the mapping as demonstrated at https://github.com/ceph/ceph/blob/master/src/test/cli/crushtool/bad-mappings.t: if it succeeds with this tool, it will also succeed on your actual cluster.
