Re: CephFS constant high write I/O to the metadata pool

Hi Patrick,

With "objecter_ops" did you mean "ceph tell mds.pve-core-1 ops" and/or
"ceph tell mds.pve-core-1 objecter_requests"? Both these show very few
requests/ops - many times just returning empty lists. I'm pretty sure that
this I/O isn't generated by any clients - I've earlier tried to isolate
this by shutting down all cephfs clients and this didn't have any
noticeable effect.

I tried to watch what is going on with that "perf dump" but to be honest
all I can see is some numbers going up in the different sections :)
...don't have a clue what to focus on and how to interpret that.

Here's a perf dump if you or anyone could make something out of that:

Tnx!
