Are you using mclock?
I'm not sure. I'll read about it.
What happens if you set it through the Ceph UI?There are global, mon, mgr, osd, mds and client values that I changed to 10 (the default is 1):
...but the output is still:
# ceph-conf --show-config | egrep osd_max_backfills
osd_max_backfills = 1
osd_max_backfills = 1
You could try turning it off and do the balancing yourself (this might be helpful: https://github.com/laimis9133/plankton-swarm).
I'll definitely look into that. Thanks a bunch!

Hello Bruno,Interesting case, few observations.What’s the average size of your PGs?Judging from the ceph status you have 1394 pls in total and 696TiB of used storage, that’s roughly 500GB per pg if I’m not mistaken.With the backfilling limits this results in a lot of time spent per single pg due to its size. You could try increasing their number in the pools to have lighter placement groups.Are you using mclock? If yes, you can try setting the profile to prioritise recovery operations with 'ceph config set osd osd_mclock_profile high_recovery_ops'The max backfills configuration is an interesting one - it should persist.What happens if you set it through the Ceph UI?In general it looks like the balancer might be “fighting” with the manual OSD balancing.You could try turning it off and do the balancing yourself (this might be helpful: https://github.com/laimis9133/plankton-swarm).Also probably known already but keep in mind erasure coded pools are known to be on the slower side when it comes to any data movement due to additional operations needed.Best,Laimis J.On 4 Jan 2025, at 13:18, bruno.pessanha@xxxxxxxxx wrote:Hi everyone. I'm still learning how to run Ceph properly in production. I have a a cluster (Reef 18.2.4) with 10 nodes (8 x 15TB nvme's each). There are prod 2 pools, one for RGW (3 x replica) and one for CephFS (EC 8k2m). It was all fine but one users started store more data I started seeing:
1. Very high number of misplaced PG's.
2. OSD's very unbalanced and getting 90% full

I've been trying to rebalance the OSD's manually since the balancer does not work due to:
```
"optimize_result": "Too many objects (0.355160 > 0.050000) are misplaced; try again later",
```
I manually re-weighted the top 10 most used OSD's and the number of misplaced objects are going down very slowly. I think it could take many weeks at that ratio.
There's almost 40% of total free space but the RGW pool is almost full at ~94% I think because of OSD's unbalancing.

I also tried changing the following but it does not seem to persist:
```
# ceph-conf --show-config | egrep "osd_recovery_max_active|osd_recovery_op_priority|osd_max_backfills"
osd_max_backfills = 1
osd_recovery_max_active = 0
osd_recovery_max_active_hdd = 3
osd_recovery_max_active_ssd = 10
osd_recovery_op_priority = 3
# ceph config set osd osd_max_backfills 10
# ceph-conf --show-config | egrep "osd_recovery_max_active|osd_recovery_op_priority|osd_max_backfills"
osd_max_backfills = 1
osd_recovery_max_active = 0
osd_recovery_max_active_hdd = 3
osd_recovery_max_active_ssd = 10
osd_recovery_op_priority = 3
```
1. Why I ended up with so many misplaced PG's since there were no changes on the cluster: number of osd's, hosts, etc.
2. Is it ok to change the target_max_misplaced_ratio to something higher than .05 so the autobalancer would work and I wouldn't have to constantly rebalance the osd's manually?
3. Is there a way to speed up the rebalance?
4. Any other recommendation that could help to make my cluster healthy again?
Thank you!
Bruno
