You have only 8 PGs in total? They take up several hundreds of GB, making one PG quite large. That's why it's backfill_toofull, it can't store another 200 GB (or so) on that OSD because it would breach the (default) limit of 90%. You need to increase pg_num drastically to decrease your PG sizes.

As a first shot I would aim for 100 PGs per OSD or so.

Zitat von Sinan Polat via ceph-users <[email protected]>:

Hi,

The cluster-wide utilization isn't the important metric here.
backfill_toofull means that the destination OSD selected for the backfill
is above the configured backfillfull_ratio, regardless of how much free
space the cluster has overall.

Can you post the output of:
ceph pg 7.0 query
ceph osd dump | egrep 'nearfull_ratio|backfillfull_ratio|full_ratio'

Kind regards,
Sinan

Hi guys.

Is what ceph claims really the case?

I cannot "decipher" this - can you help, explain what is
(not)happening here - this "state" persists for a few days,
I do not suppose it will heal itself.

many thanks, L.
