Hi,
I had looked at the output of `ceph health detail` which told me to search
for 'incomplete' in the docs.
Since that said to file a bug (and I was sure that filing a bug did not
help) I continued to purge the Disks that we hat overwritten and ceph then
did some magic and told me that the PGs were again available on three OSDs
but were incomplete.
I have now gone ahead and marked all three of the OSDs where one of my
incomplete PGs is (according to `ceph pg ls incomplete`) as lost one by
one, waiting for ceph status to settle in between and that lead to the PG
now being incomplete on three different OSDs.
Also, force-create-pg tells me "already created".

There should be docs on how to mark an OSD lost, which
I would expect to be
linked from the troubleshooting PGs page.
There is also a command to force create PGs but I don’t think that will
help in this case since you already have at least one copy.
