Worked around it by doing a fail of the mds because I read somewhere about restarting it. However would be nice to know what causes this and how to prevent it. ceph mds fail c -----Original Message----- Subject: Re: Luminous 12.2.12 "clients failing to respond to capability release" & "MDSs report slow requests" error These are not excessive values, are they?

I am using a default luminous and a default centos7 with default kernel 3.10. Do I really still need to change to a not stock kernel to resolve this? I read this in posts of 2016 and 2019, yet I also saw some post on tuning the mds.
