- ceph osd pool set {pool-name} pg_num {pg_num}

+ ceph osd pool set {pool-name} pg_num {pg_num}
After you increase the number of placement groups, you must also
increase the number of placement groups for placement (``pgp_num``)
will not be migrated to the newer placement groups until placement
groups for placement, ie. ``pgp_num`` is increased. The ``pgp_num``
should be equal to the ``pg_num``. To increase the number of
-placement groups for placement, execute the following::

- ceph osd pool set {pool-name} pgp_num {pgp_num}
+ ceph osd pool set {pool-name} pgp_num {pgp_num}
When decreasing the number of PGs, ``pgp_num`` is adjusted
automatically for you.
