Hi,
We went the „long“ way.
- first emptied osd node by node (for each pool), purged all OSDs
- moved the OS from centos 7 to ubuntu 20 (reinstalled every node)
- removed the cache pool and cleaned up some config
- installed all OSDs and moved the data back
- upgraded ceph nautilus to octopus (containered) and now we are moving to
pacific/quincy.
This worked (slow - lot’s of data) without any bigger outage or problems. The only thing
was, that a pool of NVMe nodes was flooding other nodes while backfilling :) …
… so start with low backfill values and CHECK before you carrie on with other pools or
nodes.
Best . Götz

Hi Goetz,
Which method you finally choose?
We've done a successful migration from Centos 8 to ubuntu 20.04 but we have a centos
7 nautilus cluster which we'd like to move to Ubuntu 20.04 octopus same as you.
Wonder any of you tried to skip Rocky 8 from the flow?
