For future reference, "ceph pg repeer <pgid>" might have helped here. Was the PG stuck in the "activating" state? If so, I wonder if you temporarily exceeded mon_max_pg_per_osd on some OSDs when rebuilding your host. At least on Nautilus I've seen cases where Ceph doesn't gracefully recover from this temporary limit violation and the PGs need some nudges to become active.
