Hi, The common recommendation is to use a good (Intel S3700) SSD disk for journals for each 3-4 OSDs, or otherwise to use internal journal on each OSD. Don't put more than one journal on the same spinning disk. Also, it is recommended to use 500G-1TB disks, specially if you have a 1gbit netw

Hi, While using rbd kernel client with cephx , admin user without admin keyring was not able to map the rbd image to a block device and this should be the work flow. But issue is once I unmap rbd image without admin keyring it is allowing to unmap the image and as per my understanding it sho

Unmapping is an operation local to the host and doesn't communicate with the cluster at all (at least, in the kernel you're running...in very new code it might involve doing an "unwatch", which will require communication). That means there's no need for a keyring, since its purpose is to validate c

There are a lot of next steps on http://ceph.com/docs/master/rados/troubleshooting/troubleshooting-osd/ You probably want to look at the bits about using the admin socket, and diagnosing slow requests. :) -Greg On Sun, Feb 8, 2015 at 8:48 PM, Matthew Monaco wrote: > Hello! > > *** Shameless plug

[ceph-users] kernel crash after 'ceph: mds0 caps stale' and 'mds0 hung' -- issue with timestamps or HVM virtualization on EC2?

Hi folks, One of our users is seeing machine crashes almost daily. He's using Ceph v0.87 giant, and is seeing this crash: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/ianblenke/b74e5aa5547130ebc0fb/raw/c3eeab076310d149443fd6118113b9d94f176303/gistfile1.txt It seems easy to trigger this by rsyncing to the C

Greg, Thanks for confirming they're unrelated - that'll save me from going down the wrong path in debugging. I'll see what I can do about getting more info from the MDS - I'll relay this to our user. Chris On Mon, Feb 9, 2015 at 1:51 PM, Gregory Farnum wrote: > On Mon, Feb 9, 2015 at 11:58 AM
