Hi Venky,
Yep that's what I figured out too - but it also must have triggered some
underlying issue where the mds goes into some state where each of these
updatedb runs accumulate more and more of that constant write io to the
metadata pool which never settles. Feels like it was constantly flushin

This was common in the NFS days, and some Linux distribution deliberately slew
the execution time. find over an NFS mount was a sure-fire way to horque the
server. (e.g. Convex C1)
IMHO since the tool relies on a static index it isn't very useful, and I
routinely remove any variant from my sys
Hi - mostly as a note to future me and if anyone else looking for the same

I finally solved this a couple of months ago. No idea what is wrong with
Ceph but the root cause that was triggering this MDS issue was that I had
several workstations and a couple servers where the updatedb of "lo
Hi,
One thing I now noticed in the mds logs is that there's a ton of entries
like this:

Hi,
I'm still totally lost with this issue. And now lately I've had a couple of
incidents where the write bw has suddenly jumped to even crazier levels.
See the graph here:

The points where it drops to something manageable again are

Hi Venky,
I have indeed observed the output of the different sections of perf dump
like so:
watch -n 1 ceph tell mds.`hostname` perf dump objecter
watch -n 1 ceph tell mds.`hostname` perf dump mds_cache
...etc...
...but without any proper understanding of what is a normal rate for some

Hi Milind,
Here's are the output of top and a pstack backtrace:

I uploaded the debug log using ceph-post-file - hope someone can access
that :)
ceph-post-file: 30f9b38
maybe,
- use the top program to look at a threaded listing of the ceph-mds
process and see which thread(s) are consuming the most cpu
- use gstack to attach to the ceph-mds process and dump the backtrace
into a file; we can then map the thread with highest cpu consumption to the

I might have spoken too soon :(
Now about 60h after dropping the caches the write bandwidth has gone up
linearly from those initial hundreds of kB/s to now nearly 10MB/s.
I don't think this could be caused by the cache just filling up again
either. After dropping the cache I tested if filling up
Oh Lordy,
Seems like I finally got this resolved. And all it needed in the end was to
drop the mds caches with:
ceph tell mds.`hostname` cache drop
The funny thing is that whatever the issue with the cache was it had
persisted through several Ceph upgrades and node reboots. It's been a live

I tried my luck and upgraded to 17.2.4 but unfortunately that didn't make
any difference here either.
I also looked more again at all kinds of client op and request stats and
wotnot which only made me even more certain that this io is not caused by
any clients.

Hi Patrick,
With "objecter_ops" did you mean "ceph tell mds.pve-core-1 ops" and/or
"ceph tell mds.pve-core-1 objecter_requests"? Both these show very few
requests/ops - many times just returning empty lists. I'm pretty sure that
this I/O isn't generated by any clients - I've earlier tried to isola
