Re: cephfs file size limit 0f 1.1TB?

Hi John,
That's great, thank you so much for the advice.
Some of our users have massive files so this would have been a big block.

Is there any particular reason for having a file size limit? Would setting max_file_size to 0 remove all limits?

Thanks again,

Jake

Are there any repercussions to configuring this on an existing large fs?

No. It's just a limit that's enforced at the point of appending to
files or setting their size, it doesn't affect how anything is stored.

Dear All,

I've been testing out cephfs, and bumped into what appears to be an
upper
file size limit of ~1.1TB

e.g:

[root@cephfs1 ~]# time rsync --progress -av /ssd/isilon_melis.tar
/ceph/isilon_melis.tar
sending incremental file list
isilon_melis.tar
1099341824000 54% 237.51MB/s 1:02:05
rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes to socket [sender]:
Broken pipe (32)
rsync: write failed on "/ceph/isilon_melis.tar": File too large (27)
rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at receiver.c(322)
[receiver=3.0.9]
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (28 bytes received so far)
[sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(605)
[sender=3.0.9]

Firstly, is this expected?

CephFS has a configurable maximum file size, it's 1TB by default.

Change it with:
ceph fs set <fs name> max_file_size <size in bytes>

If not, then does anyone have any suggestions on where to start digging?

I'm using erasure encoding (4+1, 50 x 8TB drives over 5 servers), with
an
nvme hot pool of 4 drives (2 x replication).

I've tried both Kraken (release), and the latest Luminous Dev.

many thanks,

Jake
