I need to move a 6+2 EC pool from HDDs to SSDs while storage must remain accessible. All SSDs and HDDs are within the same failure domains. The crush rule in question is rule sr-rbd-data-one { id 5 type erasure min_size 3 max_size 8 step set_chooseleaf_tries 50 step set_choose_tries 1000 step take ServerRoom class hdd step chooseleaf indep 0 type host step emit } and I would be inclined just to change the entry "step take ServerRoom class hdd" to "step take ServerRoom class ssd" and wait for the dust to settle. However, this will almost certainly lead to all PGs being undersized and inaccessible as all objects are in the wrong place. I noticed that this is not an issue with PGs created by replicated rules as they can contain more OSDs than the replication factor while objects are moved. The same does not apply to EC rules. I suspect this is due to the setting "max_size 8", which does not allow for more than 6+2=8 OSDs being a member of a PG. What is the correct way to do what I need to do? Can I just set "max_size 16" and go? Will this work with EC rules? If not, what are my options? Thanks! ================= Frank Schilder AIT Risø Campus Bygning 109, rum S14
