Hi Tyler, Maybe you didn't read the full message, but in the message you will notice that I'm doing exactly that, and the problem just occurred when I was doing the upgrade from Octopus to Pacific. I'm nowhere near Quincy yet. The original goal was to move from Nautilus to Quincy, but I have gone to Octopus (no problems) and now to Pacific (problems).

I hate to be the bearer of bad news here, but:
https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/releases/quincy/#upgrading-from-pre-octopus-...
"You *must* first upgrade to Octopus (15.2.z) or Pacific (16.2.z) before upgrading to Quincy."
Is this expected? What am I missing? Thanks for any pointers!
Personally, what I would do in this situation is treat the 2 Quincy mons as permanently failed, and recover from the Nautilus one that's still working. That is: take a copy of the monmap, then purge the two Quincy mons that were prematurely upgraded, and finally rebuild those same 2 mons with Centos 7/Nautilus.
Preferably, this is done in some kind of staging environment first for validation as you do not want to mess with that last mon at this point.
Cheers, Tyler
