Thanks for all your hard work in putting out the fixes so quickly! :)

We have a cluster on 12.2.5 with Bluestore and EC pool but for CephFS, not RGW. 
In the release notes, it says RGW is a risk especially the garbage collection, 
and the recommendation is to either pause IO or disable RGW garbage collection.


In our case with CephFS, not RGW, is it a lot less risky to perform the upgrade 
to 12.2.7 without the need to pause IO?


What does pause IO do? Do current sessions just get queued up and IO resume 
normally with no problem after unpausing?


If we have to pause IO, is it better to do something like: pause IO, restart 
OSDs on one node, unpause IO - repeated for all the nodes involved in the EC 
pool?


Regards,

Linh

I think they both do?

Correct.

The intent here is to clarify that any cluster running 12.2.4 or
older can upgrade without reading carefully. If the cluster
does/did run 12.2.5 or .6, then read carefully because it may (or may not)
be affected.

Does that help? Any suggested revisions to the wording in the release
notes that make it clearer are welcome!

Thanks-
