This cluster has multiple rbd images mapped to multiple client machines.

And these messages are at debug level 1 for debug_ms and approximately 200MB-400MB is occupied for these messages from each osd log. > > Is there any reason these messages are present at level 1? Can we move to debug level 5 or above? The messages being passed around are the most basic unit of information about what the messenger is doing that could be helpful for much of anything, so they're at level one. In particular, this is information that we want when diagnosing almost any other problem that involves more than one process, so we like to have it on by default. You could turn down the messenger debugging if it really mattered to you, but the data should compress well with log rotation so I'm not sure there's much point. -Greg -- 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
