Try all these.. osd recovery max active = 1 osd max backfills = 1 osd recovery threads = 1 osd recovery op priority = 1 Thanks & Regards Somnath -----Original Message----- From: ceph-users [mailto:ceph-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Robert LeBlanc Sent: Thursday, September 10, 2015 1:56 PM To: ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Hammer reduce recovery impact -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 We are trying to add some additional OSDs to our cluster, but the impact of the backfilling has been very disruptive to client I/O and we have been trying to figure out how to reduce the impact. We have seen some client I/O blocked for more than 60 seconds. There has been CPU and RAM head room on the OSD nodes, network has been fine, disks have been busy, but not terrible. 11 OSD servers: 10 4TB disks with two Intel S3500 SSDs for journals (10GB), dual 40Gb Ethernet, 64 GB RAM, single CPU E5-2640 Quanta S51G-1UL.

One problem we have is that the requirements of the cluster changed after setting up our pools, so our PGs are really out of wack. Our most active pool has only 256 PGs and each PG is about 120 GB is size. We are trying to clear out a pool that has way too many PGs so that we can split the PGs in that pool. I think these large PGs is part of our issues. Things I've tried: * Lowered nr_requests on the spindles from 1000 to 100. This reduced the max latency sometimes up to 3000 ms down to a max of 500-700 ms. it has also reduced the huge swings in latency, but has also reduced throughput somewhat. * Changed the scheduler from deadline to CFQ. I'm not sure if the the OSD process gives the recovery threads a different disk priority or if changing the scheduler without restarting the OSD allows the OSD to use disk priorities. * Reduced the number of osd_max_backfills from 2 to 1. * Tried setting noin to give the new OSDs time to get the PG map and peer before starting the backfill. This caused more problems than solved as we had blocked I/O (over 200 seconds) until we set the new OSDs to in. Even adding one OSD disk into the cluster is causing these slow I/O messages. We still have 5 more disks to add from this server and four more servers to add. In addition to trying to minimize these impacts, would it be better to split the PGs then add the rest of the servers, or add the servers then do the PG split. I'm thinking splitting first would be better, but I'd like to get other opinions. No spindle stays at high utilization for long and the await drops below 20 ms usually within 10 seconds so I/O should be serviced "pretty quick". My next guess is that the journals are getting full and blocking while waiting for flushes, but I'm not exactly sure how to identify that. We are using the defaults for the journal except for size (10G). We'd like to have journals large to handle bursts, but if they are getting filled with backfill traffic, it may be counter productive. Can/does backfill/recovery bypass the journal?
