I added osd.1 again, then after recovery the problem went away. I forced this situation to check how cephfs will behave when cluster is near-full, osd fails and ceph tries to recover until backfill fills up other osds so ceph is full. I observed on the client that no IO was possible anymore so that the client was unusable. Is there a smarter way to handle this? It is bad that cephfs then stalls, it would be better if it just returns that there is no space left, but still allow read access... can this be tuned somewhere? -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Florian Wiessner Smart Weblications GmbH Martinsberger Str. 1 D-95119 Naila fon.: +49 9282 9638 200 fax.: +49 9282 9638 205 24/7: +49 900 144 000 00 - 0,99 EUR/Min* http://www.smart-weblications.de -- Sitz der Gesellschaft: Naila Geschäftsführer: Florian Wiessner HRB-Nr.: HRB 3840 Amtsgericht Hof *aus dem dt.
