Re: Pause i/o from time to time

Hello ceph-users,

we're hitting a similar problem last Thursday and today. We have a cluster consisting of 6 storagenodes containing 70 osds (JBOD configuration). We created several rbd devices and mapped them on dedicated server and exporting them via targetcli. This iscsi target are connected to Citrix XenServer 6.1 (with HF30) and XenServer 6.2 (HF4).

In the last time some disks died. After this some errors occured on this dedicated iscsitarget:
Oct 23 15:19:42 targetcli01 kernel: [673836.709887] end_request: I/O error, dev rbd4, sector 2034037064
Oct 23 15:19:42 targetcli01 kernel: [673836.713596] test_bit(BIO_UPTODATE) failed for bio: ffff880127546c00, err: -6
Oct 23 15:19:43 targetcli01 kernel: [673837.497382] end_request: I/O error, dev rbd4, sector 2034037064
Oct 23 15:19:43 targetcli01 kernel: [673837.501323] test_bit(BIO_UPTODATE) failed for bio: ffff880124d933c0, err: -6

These errors go through up to the virtual machines and lead to readonly filesystems. We could trigger this behavior with set one disk to out.

We are using Ubuntu 13.04 with latest stable ceph (ceph version 0.67.4 (ad85b8bfafea6232d64cb7ba76a8b6e8252fa0c7)

Our ceph.conf is like this:

[global]
filestore_xattr_use_omap = true
mon_host = 10.200.20.1,10.200.20.2,10.200.20.3
osd_journal_size = 1024
public_network = 10.200.40.0/16
mon_initial_members = ceph-mon01, ceph-mon02, ceph-mon03
cluster_network = 10.210.40.0/16
auth_supported = none
fsid = 9283e647-2b57-4077-b427-0d3d656233b3

[osd]
osd_max_backfills = 4
osd_recovery_max_active = 1

[osd.0]
public_addr = 10.200.40.1
cluster_addr = 10.210.40.1
....
....

After the first outage we set osd_max_backfill to 8, after the second one to 4 but it didn't help. It seems like it is the bug mentioned at http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/6278 . The problem is, that this is a production environment and the problems began after we moved several VMs to it. In our test environment we can't reproduct it but we are working on a larger testinstallation.

Does anybody have an idea how to investigate further without destroying virtual machines? ;)

Sometimes these IO errors lead to kernel panics on the iscsi target machine. The targetcli/lio config is a simple default config without any tuning or big configurations.


Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best Regards,
Uwe Grohnwaldt
