Re: Ubuntu 17.10 or Debian 9.3 + Luminous = random OS hang ?

How up to date is your VM environment? We saw something very similar last year with Linux VM’s running newish kernels. It turns out newer kernels supported a new feature of the vmxnet3 adapters which had a bug in ESXi. The fix was release last year some time in ESXi6.5 U1, or a workaround was to set an option in the VM config.

As someone suggested, I installed linux-generic-hwe-16.04 package on Ubuntu 16.04 to get kernel of 17.10, and then rebooted all VMs, here is what I observed:

- ceph monitor node froze upon reboot, in another case froze after a few minutes 

- ceph OSD hosts easily froze

- ceph admin node (which runs no ceph service but ceph-deploy) never freezes

- ceph rgw nodes and ceph mgr so far so good

 

Here are two images I captured:

 

 

Thanks.

Too little information to make any sort of assessment I'm afraid but,
at this stage, this doesn't sound like a ceph issue.
