Nope. The number that comes out here is for human consumption, you can't accurately interpret it like that. Some things to note: * it's already smoothed across the last 2 PGMap updates. * it isn't going to come out at particularly regular intervals, it's coming out at 1s (configurable) + the time it took to save an update to the PGMap. * OSDs only send their stats in to the mon at osd_mon_report_interval_min (default 5s), so if you're trying to extract something at higher resolution here it's going to not really make sense. You should do your own sampling in a way that makes sense for you. There is an existing piece of code for collecting pool stats from the mon here: https://github.com/ceph/Diamond/blob/calamari/src/collectors/ceph/ceph.py#L386 Cheers, John > 2016-03-14 09:00:05.572509 mon.0 [INF] pgmap v4110210: 920 pgs: 920 > active+clean; 427 GB data, 917 GB used, 1413 GB / 2456 GB avail; 140 kB/s > wr, 33 op/s > 2016-03-14 09:00:06.715286 mon.0 [INF] pgmap v4110211: 920 pgs: 920 > active+clean; 427 GB data, 917 GB used, 1413 GB / 2456 GB avail; 146 kB/s > wr, 5 op/s > 2016-03-14 09:00:07.855350 mon.0 [INF] pgmap v4110212: 920 pgs: 920 > active+clean; 427 GB data, 917 GB used, 1413 GB / 2456 GB avail; 73206 B/s > wr, 4 op/s > 2016-03-14 09:00:09.111931 mon.0 [INF] pgmap v4110213: 920 pgs: 920 > active+clean; 427 GB data, 917 GB used, 1413 GB / 2456 GB avail; 19729 B/s > wr, 9 op/s > 2016-03-14 09:00:10.269301 mon.0 [INF] pgmap v4110214: 920 pgs: 920 > active+clean; 427 GB data, 917 GB used, 1413 GB / 2456 GB avail; 63001 B/s > wr, 9 op/s > 2016-03-14 09:00:12.589068 mon.0 [INF] pgmap v4110215: 920 pgs: 920 > active+clean; 427 GB data, 917 GB used, 1413 GB / 2456 GB avail; 62601 B/s > wr, 2 op/s > > Ok, so at this point the last read stat I got was 09:00:04 3368 B/s rd. > Because I got no new read statistic should I interpret that as "3368 B/s > were read each second since > 09:00:04"?
