great, thank you Anthony! :) so size 4 / min_size 2 would be a lot better (of course) we have to stay at 3/2 for now though, because our OSDs are filled 60% in sum maybe someone can answer additional questions: - what is the best practice to avoid a full OSD scenario, where ceph tries to recreate all 3 replicas in one of the two rooms when the other room is down? because 3 replicas don't fit in one room obviously. - when does it make sense to migrate a pool to Erasure Coding, when doesn't it make sense and does Erasure Coding NEED a caching tier as some article on the internet stated? I think using a caching tier helps with migrating but other then that I don't understand why we'd need a caching tier. _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
