Urgent Notice to Users on 0.61.1

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Anyone running 0.61.1,

Watch out for high disk usage due to a file likely located at /var/log/ceph/ceph-mon.<mon-name>.tdump. This file contains debugging for monitor transactions. This debugging was added in the past week or so to track down another anomaly. It is not necessary (or useful unless you are debugging monitor transactions).

Depending on the load of your cluster, the tdump file may become large quickly. I've seen it grow over 50GB/day.

IMHO, the default setting should be "false", but it was merged in prior to 0.61.1 with a default of "true". If you are on 0.61.1, you can confirm the settings with:

ceph --admin-daemon /var/run/ceph/ceph-mon.<mon-name>.asok config show | grep mon_debug_dump

To disable it, add "mon debug dump transactions = false" to ceph.conf, and restart your monitors. Alternatively, you can inject the argument or add the cmdline flag.

Thanks,
Mike
