Your cluster should not need any tuning to become functional, what you're seeing is something massively wrong with it. > Hello, > I have a Cluster Which version? I assume Firefly due to the single monitor which suggests a test cluster, but if you're running a development version all bets are off. > with 30 OSDs What disks? How connected?

The errors you're seeing very much suggest either networking problems of sorts or a huge overload/slowdown of the OSD, running out of CPU, being swapped out, having troubles writing its logs in time. > connected by a 10G cluster link and connected to the Monitor over 1G. I A single monitor is asking Murphy to go and trash its leveldb and thus loosing all data. Even with a test cluster something to consider.

The examples you're giving below all are for osd.2x, suggesting they are all on the same node. If that's so, focus on that node and its network connectivity. > The 3 status below outputs were issued over the course of about 2 to > minutes.
