Is ceph osd reweight always safe to use?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Christian, all,

Having researched this a bit more, it seemed that just doing

ceph osd pool set rbd pg_num 128
ceph osd pool set rbd pgp_num 128

might be the answer.  Alas, it was not. After running the above the
cluster just sat there.

Finally, reading some more, I ran:

 ceph osd reweight-by-utilization

This accomplished moving the utilization of the first drive on the
affected node to the 2nd drive! .e.g.:

-------
BEFORE RUNNING:
-------
Filesystem     Use%
/dev/sdc1     57%
/dev/sdb1     65%
Filesystem     Use%
/dev/sdc1     90%
/dev/sdb1     75%
Filesystem     Use%
/dev/sdb1     52%
/dev/sdc1     52%
Filesystem     Use%
/dev/sdc1     54%
/dev/sdb1     63%

-------
AFTER RUNNING:
-------
Filesystem     Use%
/dev/sdc1     57%
/dev/sdb1     65%
Filesystem     Use%
/dev/sdc1     70%          ** these two swapped (roughly) **
/dev/sdb1     92%          ** ^^^^^ ^^^ ^^^^^^^           **
Filesystem     Use%
/dev/sdb1     52%
/dev/sdc1     52%
Filesystem     Use%
/dev/sdc1     54%
/dev/sdb1     63%

root at osd45:~# ceph osd tree
# id    weight  type name       up/down reweight
-1      3.44    root default
-2      0.86            host osd45
0       0.43                    osd.0   up      1
4       0.43                    osd.4   up      1
-3      0.86            host osd42
1       0.43                    osd.1   up      1
5       0.43                    osd.5   up      1
-4      0.86            host osd44
2       0.43                    osd.2   up      1
6       0.43                    osd.6   up      1
-5      0.86            host osd43
3       0.43                    osd.3   up      1
7       0.43                    osd.7   up      0.7007

So this isn't the answer either.

Could someone please chime in with an explanation/suggestion?

I suspect that might make sense to use 'ceph osd reweight osd.7 1' and
then run some form of 'ceph osd crush ...'?

Of course, I've read a number of things which suggest that the two
things I've done should have fixed my problem.

Is it (gasp!) possible that this, as Christian suggests, is a dumpling
issue and, were I running on firefly, it would be sufficient?


Thanks much
