Kernel memory allocation oops Centos 7

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

 



Brief outline:

6 Node production  cluster. Each node Dell R610, 8x1.4TB SAS Disks, Samsung M.2 PCIe SSD for journals, 32GB RAM, Broadcom 10G interfaces.

Ceph 0.80.7-0.el7.centos from the ceph repositories.


About 10 times per day, each node will oops with the following message:

An example:

All oops seem to be triggered by page allocation failure.

The effect of the oops is that the server has memory allocation errors all over the place , but mainly in the network stack. Not surprising since that would be the major activity.
I have set vm swappiness to 0 on one node but it still generates the errors.

Mem:      32732696   32507888     224808      51004          0   26187580
-/+ buffers/cache:    6320308   26412388
Swap:     31249404     308396   30941008



Each oops is serious and affects the machine enough to trip nagios which scans each 5 minutes. It would appear that the node doesn't respond to the network for many seconds.

?


A couple of observations:
Affects mon/osd servers as well as just osd servers, although they don't seem to be any more or less affected.

The OSD processes are affected on occasions but they do not seem to be using excessive memory

The main culprit seems to be the vm page cache.

Any recommendations?
