We have a ceph cluster with roughly 600 RBD's. 2 of the 600 randomly have a new feature which is breaking our backup's.

root@cephmon:~# rbd info Cloud-Ceph1/vm-134-disk-0
rbd image 'vm-134-disk-0':
size 1000 GiB in 256000 objects
order 22 (4 MiB objects)
snapshot_count: 11
id: 7c326b8b4567
block_name_prefix: rbd_data.7c326b8b4567
format: 2
features: layering, exclusive-lock, object-map, fast-diff, deep-flatten, operations
op_features: snap-trash
flags:
create_timestamp: Fri Aug 14 07:11:44 2020
access_timestamp: Thu Jun 8 06:31:06 2023
modify_timestamp: Thu Jun 8 06:31:11 2023

Anyone have any idea what "operations" is? Or snap-trash? These images were created over 3 years ago, so its very odd. Can't seem to find much about "operations" or if its safe to simple use feature disable.

All of my cluster is on the following.

root@cephmon:~# ceph -v
ceph version 16.2.9 (a569859f5e07da0c4c39da81d5fb5675cd95da49) pacific (stable)

This entire cluster started on Nautilus so I would think I should be aok.
 
What are you using for backup? are there any errors in the logs?

I am using a project called Benji.

Benji doesn't like the operations feature.

To work around this I used the proxmox disk move feature to move the 2 disks to other storage, then back to Ceph. Operations feature was gone after that and all has been solid. No idea how 2 of 600 RBD's had that feature enabled.
