Re: ceph mgr balancer bad distribution

Hi Stefan,

Which balancer mode are you using? crush-compat scores using a mix of
nobjects, npgs, and size. It's doing pretty well over here as long as
you have a relatively small number of empty PGs.
I believe that upmap uses nPGs only, and I haven't tested it enough
yet to know if it actually improves things.

Also, did you only run one iteration of the balancer? It only moves up
to 5% of objects each iteration, so it can take several to fully
balance things.
