Hi, if i do a rbd du i have this warning, each for every snapshot and the image itself.

warning: fast-diff map is invalid for vm-110-disk-3

i noticed that on a newer vms this not happen, so i think is something related to new versions of cecph. I started the cluster with version 5.2, 2 years ago, and then updated to 6 and now 6.2 (following instruction for pve5to6)

if a do a rbd-objectmap-rebuild the error disappear.

Is it the correct way? i can i "script" and do this in batch for all vms and relative snapshots?
i've tried with

Code:
rbd ls cephpool | rbd object-map rebuild
but it does not work

Thanks.

Hi,

I guess it has something to do with image features.
can you please send the output of

Code:
rbd info -p <poolname(default rbd)> vm-110-disk-3

i did the commands manually for image and all the snapshot. and from this problems started, i don't know if it's related:

The problem is that your image have no "deep flatten" feature.
This is an immutable feature and can't be turned on.
A solution would be to copy the image but then you lose all snapshots of it.
