@jonty and this particular instance is not actually even a big deal it just didn't manage to do a periodic scrubbing time because it was too busy shuffling data amongst itself, it's just that ceph doesn't really have "really big problem" and a " minor problem " difference...

Then again, the last piece of software that I used that had that (green, orange, red) was elastic search and honestly speaking that traffic lights system status is burned right into my head as something they can go straight to hell

I guess error reporting is just hard, every single data center hall I have walked through had every single router in at least some state of major/minor alarm state. My favorite is the equipment has a dedicated " catastrophic " alarm state.
