Hi Vasu, Thank you for your input! I was very hesitant in changing those on a live system. As I understand I don’t need to wait for a cluster to re-balance between PG and PGP commands, right?

See Create a Pool for details. Once you’ve set placement groups for a pool, you may increase the number of placement groups (but you cannot decrease the number of placement groups). To increase the number of placement groups, execute the following: ceph osd pool set {pool-name} pg_num {pg_num} Once you increase the number of placement groups, you must also increase the number of placement groups for placement (pgp_num) before your cluster will rebalance. The pgp_num will be the number of placement groups that will be considered for placement by the CRUSH algorithm. Increasing pg_num splits the placement groups but data will not be migrated to the newer placement groups until placement groups for placement, ie. pgp_num is increased. The pgp_num should be equal to the pg_num. To increase the number of placement groups for placement, execute the following ceph osd pool set {pool-name} pgp_num {pgp_num} On Fri, Nov 4, 2016 at 9:52 AM, Andrey Ptashnik <aptash...@cccis.com<mailto:aptash...@cccis.com>> wrote: Hello Ceph team, Is it possible to increase number of placement groups on a live system without any issues and data loss? If so what is the correct sequence of steps?
