Hi Igor,

Thanks for your input. I tried to gather as much information as I could to
answer your questions. Hopefully we can get to the bottom of this.

> 0) What is backing disks layout for OSDs in question (main device type?, additional DB/WAL devices?).

Everything is on a single Intel NVMe P4510 using dmcrypt with 2 OSDs per NVMe
device. There is no additional DB/WAL device and there are no HDDs involved.

Also note that we use 40 OSDs per host with a memory target of 6'174'015'488.

> 1) Please check all the existing logs for OSDs at "failing" nodes for other checksum errors (as per my comment #38)

I grepped the logs for "checksum mismatch" and "_verify_csum". The only
occurrences I could find where the ones that preceed the crashes.

> 2) Check if BlueFS spillover is observed for any failing OSDs.

As everything is on the same device, there can be no spillover, right?

> 3) Check "bluestore_reads_with_retries" performance counters for all OSDs at nodes in question. See comments 38-42 on the details. Any non-zero values?

I monitored this over night by repeatedly polling this performance counter over
all OSDs on the mons. Only one OSD, which has crashed in the past, has had a
value of 1 since I started measuring. All the other OSDs, including the ones
that crashed over night, have a value of 0. Before and after the crash.

> 4) Start monitoring RAM usage and swapping for these nodes. Comment 39.

The memory use of those nodes is pretty constant with ~6GB free, ~25GB availble of 256GB.
There are also only a handful of pages being swapped, if at all.

> a hypothesis why mon hosts are affected only  - higher memory utilization at these nodes is what causes disk reading failures to appear. RAM leakage (or excessive utilization) in MON processes or something?

Since the memory usage is rather constant I'm not sure this is the case, I think
we would see more of an up/down pattern. However we are not yet monitoring all
processes, and that would be somthing I'd like to get some data on, but I'm not
sure this is the right course of action at the moment.

What do you think, is it still plausible that we see a memory utilization
problem, even though there's little variance in the memory usage patterns?

The approaches we currently consider is to upgrade our kernel and to lower the memory
target somewhat.

Cheers,

Denis
