Yes it recovered when I put the OSD back in. The issue is that it fails to sort itself out when I remove that OSD even though I have loads of space and 8 other OSDs in 4 different zones to choose from. The weights are very different (some 3.2 others 0.36) and that post I found suggested that this might cause trouble for the crush algorithm. So I was thinking about making them more even before removing the OSD.
