+Can't Write Data
+================
+
+If your cluster is up, but some OSDs are down and you cannot write data,
+check to ensure that you have the minimum number of OSDs running for the
+placement group. If you don't have the minimum number of OSDs running,
+Ceph will not allow you to write data because there is no guarantee
+that Ceph can replicate your data. See ``osd pool default min size``
+in the `Pool, PG and CRUSH Config Reference`_ for details.
