Hi Boris, 
thank you for your answer. 
What i really did not expect is, that purging an OSD leads to yet another 
rebalancing, after already having it destroyed(!), after it was taken out and 
after the rebalancing seemed to have been completed. 
So with the next host - i have some more to remove - i'll do as you suggest. 
Thanks again, 
cheers, toBias

Hi Tobias, 

what we usually do, when we want to remove an OSD is to reweight the 
crush map to 0. This stops the rebalancing after removing the OSD from 
the crush map. Setting an OSD to out, keeps it weighted in the crush 
map and when it gets removed, the cluster will rebalance the PGs to 
reflect the new crush map.
