Thanks for the extra info, but I find the question more nuanced than that.

For example in my case I ended up with 12.2.9 on my last handful of newly-installed servers (and this is simply using yum rather than explicitly ceph-deploy).

We are replacing hardware nodes so the cluster is actively backfilling across nodes, which fulfills Greg's criterion of "(the bug) only triggers when PGs are not active+clean". Fortunately we are mostly backfilling from older to newer minor versions (12.2.8 to 12.2.9), so the problem may not manifest itself, but I'm not going to be in a position to have all pgs active+clean until the backfills are complete. Perhaps at that point it might be safe to upgrade the remaining osds to the same 12.2.9? The advice to also not upgrade to 12.9.10 is a bit disturbing since it sounds like the feature revert might make it incompatible with what we have.

For those on 12.2.9 -

If you have successfully upgraded to 12.2.9, there is no reason for
you to downgrade, since the bug appears while upgrading to 12.2.9 -
http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/36686. We suggest you to not upgrade to
12.2.10, which reverts the feature that caused this bug. Also, 12.2.10
does not have much in-store except for the revert. We are working on a
clean upgrade path for this feature and will announce it when it is
ready.

For those who haven't upgraded to 12.2.9 -

Please avoid this release and wait for 12.2.10.

Again, sorry about the inconvenience and hope this helps!

Thanks,

This is because 12.2.9 have a several bugs. You should avoid to use this
release and wait for 12.2.10

Argh! What's it doing in the repos then?? I've just upgraded to it!
What are the bugs? Is there a thread about them?

Simon

Is it safe to downgrade from 12.2.9 to 12.2.8?

Or should we just wait for 12.2.10?

Thanks,
