Re: Cephfs I/O when no I/O operations are submitted

Hi Chirstian, 

My configuration is as follows:
Two nodes: node0 (10.10.0.23), node1(10.10.0.24)
node0: Monitor, MDS, OSD0 in /dev/sdd1
node1: OSD1 in /dev/sdd1
The cephfs is mounted using:  mount.ceph 10.10.0.23:6789:/  /mnt/mycephfs/
After finishing configuration (PGs are active+clean), I use the iostat cmd to monitor the /dev/sdd1 in node0. 
The iostat shows that there are write I/Os for about 15minutes. Then there are no I/Os in the OSDs. 
I am not sure where these write I/Os come from. 
Thanks.

Best regards,
Fei Xia

Hi all,
I have a question about the I/O of cephfs.
I configure cephfs with 2 OSDs, and 300PGs in two HDDs. Then I use the
iostat (iostat -kx 1 /dev/sdd1) to monitor the I/Os of the HDDs
(/dev/sdd1). The result is as follows:


The iostat shows that there are write requests every second. However I
do not execute any applications. What the source of the write I/O?

That's why you use atop and/or iotop to determine what program is writing
to the disks.

If it is indeed Ceph (ceph-osd process) writing to the disk then the
question is indeed what causes that.
I have no experience with CephFS, but quiescent RBD volume (mounted VM
images) does not produce I/O by itself.

You say that you're not running any application, but is the CephFS mounted
somewhere?

Regards,

Christian
