Graham, I don’t think this is the issue I’m seeing. I’m running Centos on kernel 4.4.24-1. My processes aren’t dying. I have two clusters with 3 mons in each cluster. Over the last 3 months that the clusters have been running, this is only happened on two nodes, and only once per node. If I check the other nodes (or any nodes at this point), I see zero swap used, as in the example below. [jkilborn@darkjedi-ceph02 ~]$ free -h total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 125G 10G 85G 129M 28G 108G Swap: 2.0G 0B 2.0G These mon nodes are also running 8 osds each with ssd journals. We have very little load at this point. Even when the ceph-mon process eats all the swap, it still shows free memory, and never goes offline. total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 131783876 67618000 13383516 53868 50782360 61599096> Swap: 2097148 2097092 56 Seems like a ceph-mon bug/leak to me.

Specifically ever since our last maintenance day, some of our OSD nodes having been suffering OSDs killed by OOM killer despite having enough memory. I looked for ages at the discussions about reducing the map cache size but it just didn't seem a likely cause. It looks like a kernel bug. Here for ubuntu: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1655842 I was seeing this OOM issue on kernels 4.4.0.59 and 4.4.0.62. It sounds like downgrading into 4.4.0.57 should resolve the issue, and 4.4.0.63 out shortly should also fix it. Our unaffected machines in the cluster are running a different release and kernel (though same version of ceph). Haven't actually tested this yet, just found the reference in the last hour... could this also be the problem you are seeing?
