Re: How to troubleshoot rsync to cephfs via nfs-ganesha stalling

This isn't something I've seen before. rsync generally works fine, even over cephfs. More inline.

When I do individual rsyncs on the subfolders

-rw-r--r-- 1 nobody 500   14 Nov 25 17:01 CentOS_BuildTag

These rsyncs are all going fine.

rsync -rlptDvSHP --delete  --exclude config.repo --exclude "local*"
--exclude "isos"
anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx::centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/
/localpath/CentOS7-x86_64/Packages/
rsync -rlptDvSHP --delete  --exclude config.repo --exclude "local*"
--exclude "isos"
anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx::centos/7/os/x86_64/repodata/
/localpath/CentOS7-x86_64/repodata/
rsync -rlptDvSHP --delete  --exclude config.repo --exclude "local*"
--exclude "isos"
anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx::centos/7/os/x86_64/LiveOS/
/localpath/CentOS7-x86_64/LiveOS/

Except when I try to rsync the file CentOS_BuildTag then everything
stalls. Leaving such files
-rw------- 1 500 500     0 Dec  9 14:26 .CentOS_BuildTag.2igwc5
-rw------- 1 500 500     0 Dec  9 14:28 .CentOS_BuildTag.tkiwc5

So something is failing on the write, it seems. These are the temporary files made by rsync, and they're empty, so the initial write seems to have failed.

I can resolf this by doing a wget and moving the file to the location
wget
'http://mirror.ams1.nl.leaseweb.net/centos/7/os/x86_64/CentOS_BuildTag'
mv CentOS_BuildTag /localpath/CentOS7-x86_64/

I had also problems with .discinfo and when I ls this directory on
cephfs mount it takes a long time to produce output.

When I do the full rsync to the cephfs mount it completes without
errors, when I then later do the sync on the nfs mount it completes also
(nothing being copied)

This confirms that it's not metadata related, as this second successful rsync is purely metadata.

Anybody know what I should do to resolv this? Is this a typical ganesha
issue or is this cephfs corruption, that make ganesha stall?

Writes in Ganesha are pretty much passthrough, modulo some metadata tracking. This means that a write hang is likely to be somewhere between Ganesha and CephFS. However, this is a single, small file, so I don't see how it could hang, especially when wget can copy the file correctly. Maybe there's something about the structure of the file? Does it have holes in it, for example?

Also, can you send the mount options for the NFS mount?
