Re: New OSD Nodes, pgs haven't changed state

[Chris Taylor <ctaylor@xxxxxxxxxx>]

 

I see on this list often that peering issues are related to networking and MTU sizes. Perhaps the HP 5400's or the managed switches did not have jumbo frames enabled?

Hope that helps you determine the issue in case you want to move the nodes back to the other location.

Hi Goncalo,

 

Thanks for your reply!  I finally figured out that our issue was with the physical setup of the nodes.  Se had one OSD and MON node in our office and the others are co-located at our ISP.  We have an almost dark fiber going between our two buildings connected via HP 5400's, but it really isn't since there are some switches in between doing VLAN rewriting (ISP managed).

 

Even though all the interfaces were communicating without issue, no data would move across the nodes.  I ended up moving all nodes into the same rack and data immediately started moving and the cluster is now working!  So it seems the storage traffic was being dropped/blocked by something on our ISP side.

 

Cheers,

Mike

Hi Mike...

I was hoping that someone with a bit more experience would answer you since I never had similar situation. So, I'll try to step in and help.

The peering process means that the OSDs are agreeing on the state of objects in the PGs they share. The peering process can take some time and is a hard operation to execute from a ceph point of view, specially if a lot of peering happens at the same time. This is one of the reasons why also the pg increase should be done in very small steps (normally increases of 256 pgs).

Is your cluster slowly decreasing the number of pgs in peering? and the number of  active pgs increasing? If you see no evolution at all after this time, you can have a problem.

pgs which do not leave the peering state may be because:
- incorrect crush map
- issues in osds
- issues with the network

Check that your network is working as expected and that you do not have firewalls blocking traffic and so on.

A pg query for one of those peering pgs may provide some further information about what could be wrong.

Looking to osd logs may also show a bit of light.

Cheers
Goncalo

Subject: New OSD Nodes, pgs haven't changed state

Hi,

Yesterday morning I added two more OSD nodes and changed the crushmap from disk to node. It looked to me like everything went ok besides some disks missing that I can re-add later, but the cluster status hasn't changed since then.  Here is the output of ceph -w:

I have legacy tunables on since Ceph is only backing our Xenserver infrastructure.  The number of pgs remapping and clean haven't changed and there isn't seem to be that much data... Is this normal behavior?

Here is my crushmap:
