So I guess you're looking at an old cluster? (In which case it's *possible* some of those RGW pools are also unused now but were needed in the past; I haven't kept good track of them.) -Greg _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
