Hi,
I'm currently looking at ways to speed up OSD down/out notifications
for disk-pull events, and was investigating using udev remove events
for this.
IIUC, the outage currently propagates through to the mons via OSD device
I/O error -> filestore I/O error -> ceph-osd ceph_abort() -> heartbeat
failure.
For the disk-pull case, this should be relatively easy to speed up
by handling the remove event in 95-ceph-osd.rules with an appropriate
osd down/out PDU. The problem then becomes maintaining consistent
information in the udev database (all stashed via IMPORT{program}):
- cluster / OSD ids
- appropriate cephx creds
Before I hack something up for this, I'm interested in what others
think, and whether anyone has already gone down this path. I seem to
recall someone attempting to change the ceph-osd behaviour on I/O
error at some stage.
Cheers, David
