On a recent setup on Luminous I had by default min_size=k+m with k=2 and m=1. When you say unsafe : what I would like to do with k=2 and m=1 is equivalent of replicated size=2 pool. In this context, is it really equivalent or EC pool is really unsafe ? Thank you.

In this context, when a single OSD is down, the pool is unavailable (pgs are "incomplete" and stuck queries start to grow). Setting min_size=k seems the right setting, isn't it ? Thank you.
