Hi, In fact, when you increase your pg number, the new pgs will have to peer first and during this time, a lot a pg will be unreachable. The best way to upgrade the number of PG of a cluster (you 'll need to adjust the number of PGP too) is :
- Don't forget to apply Goncalo advices to keep your cluster responsive for client operations. Otherwise, all the IO and CPU will be used for the recovery operations and your cluster will be unreachable. Be sure that all these new parameters are in place before upgrading your cluster - stop and wait for scrub and deep-scrub operations ceph osd set noscrub ceph osd set nodeep-scrub - set you cluster in maintenance mode with : ceph osd set norecover ceph osd set nobackfill ceph osd set nodown ceph osd set noout wait for your cluster not have scrub or deep-scrub opration anymore - upgrade the pg number with a small increment like 256 - wait for the cluster to create and peer the new pgs (about 30 seconds) - upgrade the pgp number with the same increment - wait for the cluster to create and peer (about 30 seconds) (Repeat the last 4 operations until you reach the number of pg and pgp you want At this time, your cluster is still functionnal. - Now you have to unset the maintenance mode ceph osd unset noout ceph osd unset nodown ceph osd unset nobackfill ceph osd unset norecover It will take some time to replace all the pgs but at the end you will have a cluster with all pgs active+clean.During all the operation,your cluster will still be functionnal if you have respected Goncalo parameters - When all the pgs are active+clean, you can re-enable the scrub and deep-scrub operations ceph osd unset noscrub ceph osd unset nodeep-scrub Vincent
