Hi,

as far as I understand it,

you get no real benefit with doing them one by one, as each osd add, can cause a lot of data to be moved to a different osd, even tho you just rebalanced it.

The algorithm determining the placement of pg's does not take the current/historic placement into account, so changing anything at this, could cause any amount of data to migrate, with each change

Greetings,

Kai

Hello,

I have a ceph cluster with 5 nodes (1 hdd each node). I want to add 5 more 
drives (hdd) to expand my cluster. What is the best strategy for this?

I will add each drive in each node but is a good strategy add one drive and 
wait to rebalance the data to new osd for add new osd? or maybe.. I should be 
add the 5 drives without wait rebalancing and ceph rebalancing the data to all 
new osd?

Thank you.
