The fact that it's happening with only about 1 GBit/s and all OSDs are reading and writing. I will also check the network interface of the client next time it occurs. Also, ceph-fuse was taking 50 % CPU load just from this. Also, I observe the file at the source being kept during the copy, and the file at the target growing slowly. So it's definitely a copy, and only at the end the source file is deleted. > > John > >> >> For large files, this might be rather time consuming, >> and we should certainly advise all our users to not move files around needlessly if this is the case. >> >> Cheers, >> Oliver >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> ceph-users mailing list >> ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx >> http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com >>
