Hi Curtis,Sorry for overlooking your answer. No, k9 m=6 l=5 means 3 locations twitch 5 Osd plus 1 additional disk per location, thus 18.

Hello,Correct me if I'm wrong, but you have 18 servers between the 3 data centers? 9+5+6 is 20 chunks, so you still need 2 more servers to support that setup.On Wed, 9 Oct 2024, 17:38 Michel Jouvin, <michel.jouvin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Hi, I am resurrecting this old thread that I started 18 months ago after some new tests. I stopped my initial tests as the cluster I was using had not enough OSD to use 'host' as the failure domain. Thus I was using 'osd' as the failure domain and I understood it was unusual and probably not expected to work... Recently, in another cluster with 3 datacenters and 6 servers (with 18 to 24 OSDs per server) in each datacenter, I gave the LRC plugin another try. And the same happened again after that one of the datacenters went down: all PGs from the EC pool using the LRC plugin went down. I don't really understand the reason but I was wondering if this plugin, which is still documented, is really supported and supposed to work in Reef? If not, I would like to avoid spending too much time troubleshooting it... If somebody is successfully using it, I'm interested to hear it!

In the second case it is only 2 OSDs down but I'm surprised they don't seem in the same "group" of OSD (I'd expected all the the OSDs of one datacenter to be in the same groupe of 5 if the order given really reflects the allocation done...

Best regards, Michel Le 03/05/2023 à 10:21, Eugen Block a écrit :I think I got it wrong with the locality setting, I'm still limited by the number of hosts I have available in my test cluster, but as far as I got with failure-domain=osd I believe k=6, m=3, l=3 with locality=datacenter could fit your requirement, at least with regards to the recovery bandwidth usage between DCs, but the resiliency would not match your requirement (one DC failure). That profile creates 3 groups of 4 chunks (3 data/coding chunks and one parity chunk) across three DCs, in total 12 chunks. The min_size=7 would not allow an entire DC to go down, I'm afraid, you'd have to reduce it to 6 to allow reads/writes in a disaster scenario. I'm still not sure if I got it right this time, but maybe you're better off without the LRC plugin with the limited number of hosts. Instead you could use the jerasure plugin with a profile like k=4 m=5 allowing an entire DC to fail without losing data access (we have one customer using that). Zitat von Eugen Block <eblock@xxxxxx>:Hi, disclaimer: I haven't used LRC in a real setup yet, so there might be some misunderstandings on my side. But I tried to play around with one of my test clusters (Nautilus). Because I'm limited in the number of hosts (6 across 3 virtual DCs) I tried two different profiles with lower numbers to get a feeling for how that works. # first attempt ceph:~ # ceph osd erasure-code-profile set LRCprofile plugin=lrc k=4 m=2 l=3 crush-failure-domain=host For every third OSD one parity chunk is added, so 2 more chunks to store ==> 8 chunks in total. Since my failure-domain is host and I only have 6 I get incomplete PGs. # second attempt ceph:~ # ceph osd erasure-code-profile set LRCprofile plugin=lrc k=2 m=2 l=2 crush-failure-domain=host This gives me 6 chunks in total to store across 6 hosts which works: ceph:~ # ceph pg ls-by-pool lrcpool PG OBJECTS DEGRADED MISPLACED UNFOUND BYTES OMAP_BYTES* OMAP_KEYS* LOG STATE SINCE VERSION REPORTED UP ACTING SCRUB_STAMP DEEP_SCRUB_STAMP 50.0 1 0 0 0 619 0 0 1 active+clean 72s 18410'1 18415:54 [27,13,0,2,25,7]p27 [27,13,0,2,25,7]p27 2023-05-02 14:53:54.322135 2023-05-02 14:53:54.322135 50.1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 active+clean 6m 0'0 18414:26 [27,33,22,6,13,34]p27 [27,33,22,6,13,34]p27 2023-05-02 14:53:54.322135 2023-05-02 14:53:54.322135 50.2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 active+clean 6m 0'0 18413:25 [1,28,14,4,31,21]p1 [1,28,14,4,31,21]p1 2023-05-02 14:53:54.322135 2023-05-02 14:53:54.322135 50.3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 active+clean 6m 0'0 18413:24 [8,16,26,33,7,25]p8 [8,16,26,33,7,25]p8 2023-05-02 14:53:54.322135 2023-05-02 14:53:54.322135 After stopping all OSDs on one host I was still able to read and write into the pool, but after stopping a second host one PG from that pool went "down". That I don't fully understand yet, but I just started to look into it. With your setup (12 hosts) I would recommend to not utilize all of them so you have capacity to recover, let's say one "spare" host per DC, leaving 9 hosts in total. A profile with k=3 m=3 l=2 could make sense here, resulting in 9 total chunks (one more parity chunks for every other OSD), min_size 4. But as I wrote, it probably doesn't have the resiliency for a DC failure, so that needs some further investigation. Regards, Eugen Zitat von Michel Jouvin <michel.jouvin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:Hi, No... our current setup is 3 datacenters with the same configuration, i.e. 1 mon/mgr + 4 OSD servers with 16 OSDs each. Thus the total of 12 OSDs servers. As with LRC plugin, k+m must be a multiple of l, I found that k=9/m=66/l=5 with crush-locality=datacenter was achieving my goal of being resilient to a datacenter failure. Because I had this, I considered that lowering the crush failure domain to osd was not a major issue in my case (as it would not be worst than a datacenter failure if all the shards are on the same server in a datacenter) and was working around the lack of hosts for k=9/m=6 (15 OSDs). May be it helps, if I give the erasure code profile used: crush-device-class=hdd crush-failure-domain=osd crush-locality=datacenter crush-root=default k=9 l=5 m=6 plugin=lrc The previously mentioned strange number for min_size for the pool created with this profile has vanished after Quincy upgrade as this parameter is no longer in the CRUH map rule! and the `ceph osd pool get` command reports the expected number (10): ---------ceph osd pool get fink-z1.rgw.buckets.data min_sizemin_size: 10 -------- Cheers, Michel Le 29/04/2023 à 20:36, Curt a écrit :Hello, What is your current setup, 1 server pet data center with 12 osd each?

As explained in a previous mail, I setup a 15-chunk/OSD EC pool (k=9, m=6) but I have only 12 OSD servers in the cluster. To workaround the problem I defined the failure domain as 'osd' with the reasoning that as I was using the LRC plugin, I had the warranty that I could loose a site without impact, thus the possibility to loose 1 OSD server. Am I wrong?
