Get on nautilus first and (perhaps even go to pacific) before expansion. Primarily for the reason that starting in nautilus degraded data recovery will be prioritized over remapped data recovery. As you phase out old hardware and phase in new hardware you will have a very large amount of backfill happening and if you get into a degraded state in the middle of this backfill it will take a much longer time for the degraded data to become clean again. Additionally, you will want to follow the best practice of updating your cluster in order. In short monitors then managers then osds then MDS and RGW then other clients. More details here: https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/releases/nautilus/#upgrading-from-mimic-or-luminous You dont want to run with a mixed software version cluster longer than a well coordinated upgrade takes.
