To the best of my knowledge, the autoscaler and the balancer are two different entities, the former taking care of setting the number off PGs and the latter of distributing them to the OSDs according to the CRUSH rules. If this is correct, then I'd say my issue is with the balancer and not with the autoscaler, unless the problem is that with too few PGs the balancer is unable to distribute them uniformly. Is this correct? If yes, then should I expect that after turning the autoscaler on the number of PGs will be increased and my problem hopefully resolved? Yes to all of the above. With too few PGs, the balancer can’t do a very uniform job. Think of an oil drum. Pack it full of basketballs, or golf balls. > _______________________________________________ > 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
