Hi, yes you can rename a node without massive rebalancing. The following I tested with pacific. But I think this should work with older versions as well. You need to rename the node in the crushmap between shutting down the node with the old name and starting it with the new name. You only must keep the ID from the node in the crushmap!

I expect this affected the crush map such that a large qty of objects got reshuffled. I want no object movement, if possible. > > BTW this old cluster is on luminous. ☹ > > _______________________________________________ > ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx > To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
