Hi, As one of the last steps to complete my first run op porting I need to get ceph-disk working... But I'm getting a stall in test_activate for the OSD. why doesn't the activation of the OSD background and the script continues. --WjW During testing is starts ceph-osd like: function test_activate() { local to_prepare=$1 local to_activate=$2 local osd_uuid=$($uuidgen) ${CEPH_DISK} $CEPH_DISK_ARGS \ prepare --osd-uuid $osd_uuid $to_prepare || return 1 $timeout $TIMEOUT ${CEPH_DISK} $CEPH_DISK_ARGS \ activate \ --mark-init=none \ $to_activate || return 1 test_pool_read_write $osd_uuid || return 1 } Which results in script output: activate: ceph osd.0 data dir is ready at testdir/test-ceph-disk/dir command_check_call: Running command_check: ../build/bin/ceph-osd --cluster=ceph --id=0 --osd-data=testdir/test-ceph-disk/dir --osd-journal=testdir/test-ceph-disk/dir/journal starting osd.0 at - osd_data testdir/test-ceph-disk/dir testdir/test-ceph-disk/dir/journal And is the processtable this looks like: /usr/bin/timeout 360 /usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/src/ceph-disk/.tox/py27/bin/coverage run --append --source=ceph_disk -- /usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/src/ceph-disk/.tox/py27/bin/ceph-disk --verbose --prepend-to-path= --statedir=testdir/test-ceph-disk --sysconfdir=testdir/test-ceph-disk activate --mark-init=none testdir/test-ceph-disk/dir and: CEPH_BIN=/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/build/bin CEPH_ROOT=/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph CEPH_CONF=/dev/null LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/build/lib CEPH_BUILD_VIRTUALENV=/tmp VIRTUAL_ENV=/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/src/ceph-disk/.tox/py27 PATH=/tmp/ceph-disk-virtualenv/bin:/tmp/ceph-detect-init-virtualenv/bin:.:../build/bin:/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/build/bin:.:/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/src/ceph-disk/.tox/py27/bin:/tmp/ceph-disk-virtualenv/bin:/home/wjw/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:.:/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/build/bin:/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/src PYTHONHASHSEED=648437795 CEPH_LIB=/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/build/lib CEPH_DISK=/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/src/ceph-disk/.tox/py27/bin/coverage run --append --source=ceph_disk -- /usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/src/ceph-disk/.tox/py27/bin/ceph-disk PWD=/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/build CEPH_ARGS= --fsid=19836d4d-ad32-429e-bf30-588f9d8d18d1 --auth-supported=none --mon-host=127.0.0.1:7451 --chdir= --journal-dio=false --erasure-code-dir=/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/build/lib --plugin-dir=/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/build/lib --log-file=testdir/test-ceph-disk/$name.log --pid-file=testdir/test-ceph-disk/$name.pidfile --osd-class-dir=/usr/srcs/Ceph/work/ceph/build/lib --run-dir=testdir/test-ceph-disk --osd-failsafe-full-ratio=.99 --osd-journal-size=100 --debug-osd=20 --debug-bdev=20 --debug-bluestore=20 --osd-max-object-name-len=460 --osd-max-object-namespace-len=64 SHLVL=1 CEPH_MON=127.0.0.1:7451 _=/usr/bin/timeout ../build/bin/ceph-osd --cluster=ceph --id=0 --osd-data=testdir/test-ceph-disk/dir --osd-journal=testdir/test-ceph-disk/dir/journal And is the osd.0.log I see: 2016-11-11 13:41:36.562422 b678000 2 osd.0 0 boot 2016-11-11 13:41:36.614480 b678000 0 osd.0 0 done with init, starting boot process 2016-11-11 13:41:36.614532 b678000 1 osd.0 0 We are healthy, booting 2016-11-11 13:41:36.614535 b678000 10 osd.0 0 start_boot - have maps 0..0 2016-11-11 13:41:36.616877 ba89b00 10 osd.0 0 _preboot _preboot mon has osdmaps 1..5 2016-11-11 13:41:36.618842 b7d6d80 10 osd.0 5 _preboot _preboot mon has osdmaps 1..5 2016-11-11 13:41:36.618846 b7d6d80 10 osd.0 5 _send_boot 2016-11-11 13:41:36.724501 b7d6d80 10 osd.0 6 boot_epoch is 6 2016-11-11 13:41:36.724505 b7d6d80 1 osd.0 6 state: booting -> active So the OSD should actually finish and go into background.
