Can't add a ceph-mon to existing large cluster

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

There's something broken in our env when we try to add new mons to
existing clusters, confirmed on two clusters running mimic and
nautilus. It's basically this issue
https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/42830

In case something is wrong with our puppet manifests, I'm trying to
doing it manually.

First we --mkfs the mon and start it, but as soon as the new mon
starts synchronizing, the existing leader becomes unresponsive and an
election is triggered.

Here's exactly what I'm doing:

# cd /var/lib/ceph/tmp/
# scp cephmon1:/var/lib/ceph/tmp/keyring.mon.cephmon1 keyring.mon.cephmon4
# ceph mon getmap -o monmap
# ceph-mon --mkfs -i cephmon4 --monmap monmap --keyrin
keyring.mon.cephmon4 --setuser ceph --setgroup ceph
# vi /etc/ceph/ceph.conf <add the new mon to ceph.conf like this>
[mon.cephmon4]
host = cephmon4
mon addr = a.b.c.d:6790
# systemctl start ceph-mon@cephmon4

The log file on the new mon shows it start synchronizing, then
immediately the CPU usage on the leader goes to 100% and elections
start happening, and ceph health shows mon slow ops. perf top of the
ceph-mon with 100% CPU is shown below [1].
On a small nautilus cluster, the new mon gets added withing a minute
or so (but not cleanly -- the leader is unresponsive for quite awhile
until the new mon joins). debug_mon=20 on the leader doesn't show
anything very interesting.
On our large mimic cluster we tried waiting more than 10 minutes --
suffering through several mon elections and 100% usage bouncing around
between leaders -- until we gave up.

I'm pulling my hair out a bit on this -- it's really weird!

Did anyone add a new mon to an existing large cluster recently, and it
went smoothly?

Cheers, Dan
