You can reduce min_size to k in an ec pool. But that's a very bad idea
for the same reason that min_size 1 on a replicated pool is bad.

Hi,
I see that as a security feature ;-)
You can prevent data loss if k chunks are intact, but you don't want
to work with the least required amount of chunks. In a disaster
scenario you can reduce min_size to k temporarily, but the main goal
should always be to get the OSDs back up.
For ex
Hi!
While trying to understand erasure coded pools, I would have expected
that "min_size" of a pool is equal to the "K" parameter. But it turns
out, that it is always K+1.
Isn't the description of erasure coding misleading then? In a K+M setup,
I would expect to be good (in the sense of "no
