The 'down' status is why it's not being replaced, vs. destroyed, which would allow the replacement. I'm not sure why --replace lead to that scenario, but you will probably need to mark it destroyed for it to be replaced.
https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/rados/operations/add-or-rm-osds/#replacing-an-osd has instructions on the non-orch way of doing that. You only need 1/2. You should look through your logs to see what happened that the OSD was marked down and not destroyed. Obviously, make sure you understand ramifications before running any commands. :) David On Mon, Jan 30, 2023, at 04:24, mailing-lists wrote: > # ceph orch osd rm status > No OSD remove/replace operations reported > # ceph orch osd rm 232 --replace > Unable to find OSDs: ['232'] > > It is not finding 232 anymore.
