Hi, I have a production cluster and it is experiencing lot of DELETES since many months. However, with the default gc configs - I did not see the cluster space utilization going down. Moreover, the gc list has more than 4 million objects. I tried increasing the gc configs on 4 rados gateways and fired manual gc using the command: *sudo radosgw-admin gc process* The changed GC configs are as follows: rgw gc max objs = 100 rgw gc obj min wait = 3600 rgw gc processor max time = 900 rgw gc processor period = 3600 rgw gc max concurrent io = 20 rgw gc max trim chunk = 64 *Questions* 1. Since the cluster is active cluster and having both PUT and DELETE requests - I am unable to determine whether manual GC is indeed helping. I did see an increase in free space one day - but from the past few days I do not see any increase in free space. How do I determine whether GC is really running? *sudo radosgw-admin gc list | grep oid | wc -l * This command the list is always increasing and I do see very old objects when I grep for oid. 2. Does GC have some problems running automatically on Luminous? It is enabled. 3. Are the above configs fine or can they be made more aggressive? 4. Is there a faster way to claim space which is pending GC without impacting much performance?
