Thanks for this clear explanation.

BTW what is the difference between the two following metrics:
ceph_pool_stored_raw
ceph_pool_stored

I expected that ceph_pool_stored_raw should large values than
ceph_pool_stored, depending on the redundancy/replication level, however
at least in our case the values are the same.
