Hi all,

IMHO reweight-by-utilization should come with some sort of warning, it
just suddenly reweights everything - no dry run, no confirmation,
apparently no option to see what it's going to do. It also doesn't
appear to consider pools and hence crush rulesets, which I imagine
could result in it making some poor reweighting decisions.

We ran it on a cluster this evening and promptly had over 70% of
objects misplaced - even at 5-7 GB/s that's quite a lot of data
movement when there are half a billion objects in the cluster! I think
we'll stick with Dan's scripts
(https://github.com/cernceph/ceph-scripts/blob/master/tools/crush-reweight-by-utilization.py)
for the moment (thanks Dan!).
