Hi. Fresh cluster - but despite setting: jskr@dkcphhpcmgt028:/$ sudo ceph config show osd.0 | grep recovery_max_active_ssd osd_recovery_max_active_ssd 50 mon default[20] jskr@dkcphhpcmgt028:/$ sudo ceph config show osd.0 | grep osd_max_backfills osd_max_backfills 100 mon default[10] I still get jskr@dkcphhpcmgt028:/$ sudo ceph status cluster: id: 5c384430-da91-11ed-af9c-c780a5227aff health: HEALTH_OK services: mon: 3 daemons, quorum dkcphhpcmgt031,dkcphhpcmgt029,dkcphhpcmgt028 (age 16h) mgr: dkcphhpcmgt031.afbgjx(active, since 33h), standbys: dkcphhpcmgt029.bnsegi, dkcphhpcmgt028.bxxkqd mds: 2/2 daemons up, 1 standby osd: 40 osds: 40 up (since 45h), 40 in (since 39h); 21 remapped pgs data: volumes: 2/2 healthy pools: 9 pools, 495 pgs objects: 24.85M objects, 60 TiB usage: 117 TiB used, 159 TiB / 276 TiB avail pgs: 10655690/145764002 objects misplaced (7.310%) 474 active+clean 15 active+remapped+backfilling 6 active+remapped+backfill_wait io: client: 0 B/s rd, 1.4 MiB/s wr, 0 op/s rd, 116 op/s wr recovery: 328 MiB/s, 108 objects/s progress: Global Recovery Event (9h) [==========================..] (remaining: 25m) With these numbers for the setting - I would expect to get more than 15 active backfilling... (and based on SSD's and 2x25gbit network, I can also spend more resources on recovery than 328 MiB/s Thanks, . -- Jesper Krogh
