Re: Cleanup old osdmaps after #13990 fix applied

Hi Steve,

Thanks, that sounds promising.
Are only a limited number of maps trimmed for each new osdmap generated? If so, I'll generate a bit of churn to get these cleaned up.

We delete RBD snapshots all the time in our production use case, which updates the osdmap, so I did that in my test cluster and watched the map cache on one of the OSDs. Sure enough, after a while the cache was pruned down to the expected size.
