Since OSDs will not be marked out while the flag is set, the cluster will not start the backfill/recovery process to ensure optimal replication. This is most useful when performing maintenance, including simple reboots. By telling Ceph Hold on, we'll be right back we save the overhead and churn of automatically-triggered data movement.
