Adding new OSDs - also adding PGs?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All,

I'm going to be adding a bunch of OSDs to our cephfs cluster shortly (increasing the total size by 50%). We're on reef, and will be deploying using the cephadm method, and the OSDs are exactly the same size and disk type as the current ones.

So, after adding the new OSDs, my understanding is that ceph will begin rebalancing the data. I will also probably want to increase my PGs to accommodate the new OSDs being added. My question is basically: should I wait for the rebalance to finish before increasing my PG count? Which would kick off another relabance action for the new PGs? Or, should I increase the PG count as soon as the rebalance action starts after adding the new OSDs, and it would then create new PGs and rebalance on the new OSDs at the same time?

Thanks for any guidance!
