Interesting. How do you set this "maintenance mode"? If you have a series of 
documented steps that you have to do and could provide as an example, that 
would be beneficial for my efforts.

We are in the process of standing up both a dev-test environment consisting of 
3 Ceph servers (strictly for testing purposes) and a new production environment 
consisting of 20+ Ceph servers.

We are using Ubuntu 22.04.

There’s also a Maintenance mode that you can set for each server, as you’re 
doing updates, so that the cluster doesn’t try to move data from affected 
OSD’s, while the server being updated is offline or down. I’ve worked some on 
automating this with Ansible, but have found my process (and/or my cluster) 
still requires some manual intervention while it’s running to get things done 
cleanly.
