Hi All, It seems I also faced a similar case last year. I have about 160 x HDD mixed size and 12 x 480GB nvme ssd for the metadata pool. I am aware of incidents when ssd osd go to near full state, I increase nearfull ratio but these osd continue to grow for unknown reason. This is production so I changed all the rules to use HDD class osd. After the migration rule, ssd osd still continues to grow. I must take out all these osd. The cluster worked well from that to now (have not fully restarted the cluster from that). As I remember the cluster ran octopus 15.2.11 at the time of the incident (now 15.2.15). (I also recreate some of the ssd osd in the cluster before I remove all ssd osd, the recreated one also grows fast - After I remove all ssd osd, and recreate some, the osd keep the size 0 until now). Still don't know what happened. PS: my metadata pool is now only 4.6GB stored with 4.4GB omap (my store is mostly media so the metadata pool is small), the total data pool is about 500TB.
