Hello,

is this calculation for the number of PGs correct?

36 OSDs, Replication Factor 3

36 * 100 / 3 => 1200 PGs

But i then read that it should be an exponent of 2 so it should be 2048?

At large numbers of PGs it may not matter very much, but I don't think it would hurt either!

Basically this has to do with how ceph_stable_mod works. At non-power-of-two values, the bucket counts aren't even, but that's only a small part of the story and may ultimately only have a small effect on the distribution unless the PG count is small.
