Re: Safely Upgrading OS on a live Ceph Cluster

That is a good question, and I'm not sure how to answer. The journal is on its own volume, and is not a symlink. Also how does one flush the journal? That seems like an important step when bringing down a cluster safely.

Quick update. So I'm trying out the procedure as documented here.

So far I've:

1. Stopped ceph-mds
2. set noout, norecover, norebalance, nobackfill
3. Stopped all ceph-osd
4. Stopped ceph-mon
5. Installed new OS
6. Started ceph-mon
7. Started all ceph-osd

This is where I've stopped. All but one OSD came back online. One has this backtrace:

2017-02-28 17:44:54.884235 7fb2ba3187c0 -1 journal FileJournal::_open: disabling aio for non-block journal.  Use journal_force_aio to force use of aio anyway
Are the journals inline? or separate? If they're separate, the above means the journal symlink/config is missing, so it would possibly make a new journal, which would be bad if you didn't flush the old journal before.

And also just one osd is easy enough to replace (which I wouldn't do until the cluster settled down and recovered). So it's lame for it to be broken, but it's still recoverable if that's the only issue.
