You definitely have my sympathies; We encountered a similar situation a couple of years ago and it was a very hairy ordeal indeed. We found most of the suggestions in this mailing list post to be extremely beneficial in coaxing our cluster back into life: https://www.mail-archive.com/ceph-users@

It looks like that’s the dependancy specified for the Mitaka edition of that module. Can you not run a newer release? If not, and if you want any fixes submitted back upstream to be accepted, we’d better move quick… ;) -- -Nick > On 26 Apr 2017, at 10:50, Nick Jones wrote: > >
