 The general rules for deciding how many PGs your pool(s) should contain is:
 
-* Less than 5 OSDs set pg_num to 128
-* Between 5 and 10 OSDs set pg_num to 512
-* Between 10 and 50 OSDs set pg_num to 1024
+* Fewer than 5 OSDs set `pg_num` to 128
+* Between 5 and 10 OSDs set `pg_num` to 512
+* Between 10 and 50 OSDs set `pg_num` to 1024
 
 If you have more than 50 OSDs, you need to understand the tradeoffs and how to
 calculate the pg_num value by yourself. For calculating pg_num yourself please
-make use of [the pgcalc tool](http://ceph.com/pgcalc/).

-If you're already using a pool it is generally safe to [increase its PG
-count](#setting-pg-count) on-the-fly. Decreasing the PG count is not
-recommended on a pool that is in use. The safest way to decrease the PG count

 Two changes are necessary to the configuration to enable this capability:

+### Use hostNetwork in the cluster configuration
 
 Enable the `hostNetwork` setting in the [Ceph Cluster CRD configuration](../../CRDs/Cluster/ceph-cluster-crd.md#samples).
