Re: [ Ceph MDS MON Config Variables ] Failover Delay issue

Following up on this and other comments, there are 2 different time delays. One (1)  is the time it takes from killing an MDS until a stand-by is made an active rank, and (2) the time it takes for the new active rank to restore all client sessions. My experience is that (1) takes close to 0 seconds while (2) can take between 20-30 seconds depending on how busy the clients are; the MDS will go through various states before reaching active. We usually have ca. 1600 client connections to our FS. With fewer clients, MDS fail-over is practically instantaneous. We are using latest mimic.

>From what you write, you seem to have a 40 seconds window for (1), which points to a problem different to MON config values. This is supported by your description including a MON election (??? this should never happen). Do you have have services co-located? Which of the times (1) or (2) are you referring to? How many FS clients do you have?

In the process of killing the active MDS, are you also killing a monitor?
