Re: Nfs-ganesha 2.6 packages in ceph repo

Hi David,

thanks for the reply! 

Interesting that the package was not installed - it was for us, but the machines we run the nfs-ganesha servers on are also OSDs, so it might have been pulled in via ceph-packages for us. 
In any case, I'd say this means librados2 as dependency is missing either in the libcephfs or in nfs-ganesha packages. 

Also, good news that things work fine with 12.2.5 - so I hope our upgrade will also go without bumps ;-). 

My experience is sadly only a few months old. We've started with nfs-ganesha 2.5 from the Ceph repos, but hit a bad locking issue, which I also reported to this list. 
After upgrading to 2.6, we did not observe any further hard issues. It seems that there are sometimes issues with slow locks if processes are running with a working directory in ceph
and other ceph-fuse clients want to access files in the same directory, but there are no "deadlock" situations anymore. 

In terms of tuning, I did not do anything special yet. I'm running with some basic NFS / Fileserver kernel tunables (sysctl):
net.core.rmem_max = 12582912
net.core.wmem_max = 12582912
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 10240 87380 12582912
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 10240 87380 12582912
net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_sack = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_no_metrics_save = 1
net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 250000
net.core.default_qdisc = fq_codel

However, I did not do explicit testing of different values, but just followed general recommendations here. 

It seems ACLs and quotas are honoured by the NFS server (as expected, since it uses libcephfs behind the scenes). 
Right now, throughput for bulk data is close to perfect (we manage to saturate our 1 GBit/s link) and for metadata access it seems close to what ceph-fuse achieves,
which is sufficient for us. 

Cheers and thanks for the feedback,
	Oliver

This is with nfs-ganesha-2.6.1-0.1.el7.x86_64, libcephfs2-12.2.5-0.el7.x86_64 and librados2-12.2.5-0.el7.x86_64. Thanks for the pointer on that.
