Hi Janek, What you said sounds right - an S3 single part obj won't have an S3 multipart string as part of the prefix. S3 multipart string looks like "2~m5Y42lPMIeis5qgJAZJfuNnzOKd7lme". >From memory, single part S3 objects that don't fit in a single rados object are assigned a random prefix that has nothing to do with the object name, and the rados tail/data objects (not the head object) have that prefix. As per your working example, the prefix for that would be '.8naRUHSG2zfgjqmwLnTPvvY1m6DZsgh'. So there would be (239) "shadow" objects with names containing that prefix, and if you add up the sizes it should be the size of your S3 object. You should look at working and non working examples of both single and multipart S3 objects, as they are probably all a bit different when you look in rados. I agree it is a serious issue, because once objects are no longer in rados, they cannot be recovered. If it was a case that there was a link broken or rados objects renamed, then we could work to recover...but as far as I can tell, it looks like stuff is just vanishing from rados. The only explanation I can think of is some (rgw or rados) background process is incorrectly doing something with these objects (eg. renaming/deleting). I had thought perhaps it was a bug with the rgw garbage collector..but that is pure speculation. Once you can articulate the problem, I'd recommend logging a bug tracker upstream.
