• Scan logs for warnings

  journalctl -u ceph-mon@<hostname> --since today
  journalctl -u ceph-osd@<id> --since today
  

📅 Weekly Tasks¶

🚨 Watch For¶

• OSDs marked down/out → restart or replace disk.
• PGs stuck/inactive → check network and MON quorum.
• Slow requests → test Ceph network latency and disk health.
• Near‑full warnings → add OSDs or clean up unused images/snapshots.
• MON quorum loss → ensure at least 2 of 3 MONs are running.
