Hello,

I'm running ceph 14.2.3 on six hosts with each four osds. I did recently upgrade this from four hosts.

The cluster is running fine. But i get this in my logs:

Sep 11 11:02:41 ceph1 ceph-mon[1333]: 2019-09-11 11:02:41.953 7f26023a6700 -1 verify_upmap number of buckets 5 exceeds desired 4

It looks like the balancer is not doing any work.

Here are some infos about the cluster:

ceph1 ~ # ceph osd crush rule ls
replicated_rule
cephfs_ec
ceph1 ~ # ceph osd crush rule dump replicated_rule
{
    "rule_id": 0,
    "rule_name": "replicated_rule",
    "ruleset": 0,
    "type": 1,
    "min_size": 1,
    "max_size": 10,
    "steps": [
        {
            "op": "take",
            "item": -1,
            "item_name": "default"
        },
        {
            "op": "chooseleaf_firstn",
            "num": 0,
            "type": "host"
        },
        {
            "op": "emit"
        }
    ]
}

ceph1 ~ # ceph osd crush rule dump cephfs_ec
{
    "rule_id": 1,
    "rule_name": "cephfs_ec",
    "ruleset": 1,
    "type": 3,
    "min_size": 8,
    "max_size": 8,
    "steps": [
        {
            "op": "set_chooseleaf_tries",
            "num": 5
        },
        {
            "op": "set_choose_tries",
            "num": 100
        },
        {
            "op": "take",
            "item": -1,
            "item_name": "default"
        },
        {
            "op": "choose_indep",
            "num": 4,
            "type": "host"
        },
        {
            "op": "choose_indep",
            "num": 2,
            "type": "osd"
        },
        {
            "op": "emit"
        }
    ]
}

ceph1 ~ # ceph osd erasure-code-profile ls
default
isa_62
ceph1 ~ # ceph osd erasure-code-profile get default
k=2
m=1
plugin=jerasure
technique=reed_sol_van
ceph1 ~ # ceph osd erasure-code-profile get isa_62
crush-device-class=
crush-failure-domain=osd
crush-root=default
k=6
m=2
plugin=isa
technique=reed_sol_van

The idea with four hosts was that the ec profile should take two osds on each host for the eight buckets.

Now with six hosts i guess two hosts will have tow buckets on two osds and four hosts will have each one bucket for a piece of data.

Any idea how to resolve this?
