I assume you also did ceph osd crush remove osd.<id>. When you removed the osd that was down/out and balanced off of, you changed the weight of the host that it was on which triggers additional backfilling to balance the crush map.

Hello, One of my ceph node with 20 OSDs down...After a couple of hours, ceph health is in OK state. Now, I tried to remove those OSDs, which were down state from ceph cluster... using the "ceh osd remove osd.<id>" then ceph clsuter started rebalancing...which is strange ..because thsoe OSDs are down for a long time and health also OK.. my question - why recovery or reblance started when I remove the OSD (which was down). Thanks Swami
