Progress Module

The progress module is used to inform users about the recovery progress of PGs (Placement Groups) that are affected by events such as (1) OSDs being marked in or out and (2) pg_autoscaler trying to match the target PG number.

The ceph -s command returns something called ” Global Recovery Progress”, which reports the overall recovery progress of PGs and is based on the number of PGs that are in the active+clean state.
