Hi Robert, How did you move these files? The 'mv' operation on existing files in the cephfs tree will ** not ** move rados objects between pools. Only new files created in a folder backed by a specific pool will fall into that pool. There may be a lock of documentation here. Please read this blog post [1] before taking any actions. It provides a python script [2] that helps moving existing files between rados pools. Regards, Frédéric.
