Understood, that was a typo on my part. Definitely dont cancel-backfill after generating the moves from placementoptimizer. ________________________________ From: Josh Baergen <jbaergen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, September 23, 2022 11:31 AM To: Wyll Ingersoll <wyllys.ingersoll@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Eugen Block <eblock@xxxxxx>; ceph-users@xxxxxxx <ceph-users@xxxxxxx> Subject: Re: Re: Balancer Distribution Help Hey Wyll, > $ pgremapper cancel-backfill --yes # to stop all pending operations > $ placementoptimizer.py balance --max-pg-moves 100 | tee upmap-moves > $ bash upmap-moves > > Repeat the above 3 steps until balance is achieved, then re-enable the balancer and unset the "no" flags set earlier?
