Hi, > I would suggest trying kvm instead of xen... There is a lot of different setup that might work, I'm not looking for a different setup, I want to fix this one. We already have a complete running infra using Xen and using an iscsi NAS as backend for the VM image and Lustre as distributed FS and I want to replace all that and use ceph instead. > "net eth0: rx->offset: 0, size: 4294967295" > > Seems that there is something wrong with networking code in xen? The problem doesn't appear with Ceph on its own or Xen on its own, so it's a weird interaction between them and it could very well be that the network code of ceph does something unexpected triggering this behavior in xen. At this point I wouldn't exclude anything ... Also even if the root fault lies with Xen, I think that the running away memory issue triggered inside the OSD by this is worth fixing on its own. A badly behaving client shouldn't be able to DoS the OSD so easily.
