If it's idle I think that's why — normally these are kept live (unstale) just by passing normal messages back and forth. Although, Zheng, it ought to be sending off messages prior to stale if there's no other traffic, shouldn't it? If you're not seeing any problems on these hosts I don't think you need to worry about it, though. > Ceph health is OK and the MDS server seems pretty happy although I am > occasionally seeing some "closing stale session" lines in the ceph-mds log > but I think that's a separate issue. Closing stale sessions means the MDS is removing clients which haven't checked in for a while. That might be a problem if the client computer is still around and wants to access the FS. (Alternatively, if you've got eg laptops mounting CephFS and they're timing out when they get taken home for the night, not so much.) -Greg _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@lists.ceph.com http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
