Hi, I had a few doubts regarding the project: 1. We need to look at the metrics that will ultimately classify an OSD. I'm a little confused between a metric and a root cause. Am i right in saying that I/O stats, Network stats, Number of placement groups served by an OSD, Number of objects stored in the OSD are all metrics profiling an OSD? 2. "The python module will also follow predefined policies to help administrator to address the problem." What do we mean by predefined policies here ? Would laying down these possibilities require the knowledge of the root cause of a slow OSD? Clarifying these doubts will help me improve my proposal. I have a draft of the proposal here(https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dPrijkn8-5l4TL6C2TCORivtz_TpeccurNTI4qnFyS0/edit?usp=sharing). Any feedback is appreciated :) Cheers, Vedant -- 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
