Reconstructing an OSD server when the boot OS is corrupted

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear Ceph Community

We have 5 OSD servers running Ceph v15.2.17. The host operating system is
Ubuntu 20.04.

One of the servers has suffered corruption to its boot operating system.
Using a system rescue disk it is possible to mount the root filesystem but
it is not possible to boot the operating system at the moment.

The OSDs are configured with (spinning disk) data drives, WALs and DBs on
partitions of SSDs, but from my examination of the filesystem the
configuration in /var/lib/ceph appears to be corrupted.

So my question is: what is the best option for repair going forward? Is it
possible to do a clean install of the operating system and scan the
existing drives in order to reconstruct the OSD configuration?

Thank you,
Peter
P.S. the cause of the original corruption is likely due to an unplanned
power outage, an event that hopefully will not recur.
