Might that be the case? Nope, all debug levels, including mons are set to 0/0. I also see that the ``no-client'' cluster shows a very small amount of such writes under mon, 10-20kByte/s, and one idle client (writing couple of bytes without O_SYNC) raise this value times up to ~200kB/s and so on, so may be I`m wrong before and writes correlate with amount of clients too(six clients plus three control nodes accessing via API in the context of previous message for both environments). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
