The CRUSH-related information from the ec profile is only used for the initial creation of the crush rule for pool. You can just change the crush rule and everything else will happen automatically. Or you can create a new crush rule and assign it to the pool like you did, that's also fine.
Unrelated: It's usually not recommended to run the default data pool on an ec pool, but I guess it's fine if it is the only pool. Paul -- Paul Emmerich Looking for help with your Ceph cluster?
