Re: [Gluster-users] heal hanging

[Pranith Kumar Karampuri <pkarampu@xxxxxxxxxx>]

You guys use more than 128 clients don't you? We recently found a memory corruption in client-table which is used in locking. I wonder if it has some role to play here.
http://review.gluster.org/13241 is the fix. Could you see if you are seeing this issue even after this fix?

Last entry for get_real_filename on any of the bricks was when we turned off the samba gfapi vfs plugin earlier today:

We'll get back to you with those traces when %cpu spikes again. As with most sporadic problems, as soon as you want something out of it, the issue becomes harder to reproduce.

Unfortunately, all samba mounts to the gluster volume through the gfapi vfs plugin have been disabled for the last 6 hours or so and frequency of %cpu spikes is increased. We had switched to sharing a fuse mount through samba, but I just disabled that as well. There are no samba shares of this volume now. The spikes now happen every thirty minutes or so. We've resorted to just rebooting the machine with high load for the present.

Could you see if the logs of following type are not at all coming?

These are operations that failed. Operations that succeed are the ones that will scan the directory. But I don't have a way to find them other than using tcpdumps.

At the moment I have 2 theories:
1) these get_real_filename calls
2) [2016-01-21 16:10:38.017828] E [server-helpers.c:46:gid_resolve] 0-gid-cache: getpwuid_r(494) failed

Yessir they are.  Normally, sssd would look to the local cache file in /var/lib/sss/db/ first, to get any group or userid information, then go out to the domain controller.  I put the options that we are using on our GFS volumes below…  Thanks for your help.

 

We had been running sssd with sssd_nss and sssd_be sub-processes on these systems for a long time, under the GFS 3.5.2 code, and not run into the problem that David described with the high cpu usage on sssd_nss.

"
That was Tom Young's email 1.5 years back when we debugged it. But the process which was consuming lot of cpu is sssd_nss. So I am not sure if it is same issue. Let us debug to see '1)' doesn't happen. The gstack traces I asked for should also help.

Hmm.. Is there a way to disable using this and check if the CPU% still increases? What getxattr of "glusterfs.get_real_filename <filanme>" does is to scan the entire directory looking for strcasecmp(<filname>, <scanned-filename>). If anything matches then it will return the <scanned-filename>. But the problem is the scan is costly. So I wonder if this is the reason for the CPU spikes.

Pranith, could this kind of behavior be self-inflicted by us deleting files directly from the bricks? We have done that in the past to clean up an issues where gluster wouldn't allow us to delete from the mount.

If so, is it feasible to clean them up by running a search on the .glusterfs directories directly and removing files with a reference count of 1 that are non-zero size (or directly checking the xattrs to be sure that it's not a DHT link).

find /data/brick01a/homegfs/.glusterfs -type f -not -empty -links -2 -exec rm -f "{}" \;

Is there anything I'm inherently missing with that approach that will further corrupt the system?

I waited a few minutes for the heals to finish and ran the heal statistics and info again. one file is in split-brain. Aside from the split-brain, the load on all systems is down now and they are behaving normally. glustershd.log is attached. What is going on???

I should mention that the problem is not currently occurring and there are no heals (output appended). By restarting the gluster services, we can stop the crawl, which lowers the load for a while. Subsequent crawls seem to finish properly. For what it's worth, files/folders that show up in the 'volume info' output during a hung crawl don't seem to be anything out of the ordinary.

Over the past four days, the typical time before the problem recurs after suppressing it in this manner is an hour. Last night when we reached out to you was the last time it happened and the load has been low since (a relief).  David believes that recursively listing the files (ls -alR or similar) from a client mount can force the issue to happen, but obviously I'd rather not unless we have some precise thing we're looking for. Let me know if you'd like me to attempt to drive the system unstable like that and what I should look for. As it's a production system, I'd rather not leave it in this state for long.

Will it be possible to send glustershd, mount logs of the past 4 days? I would like to see if this is because of directory self-heal going wild (Ravi is working on throttling feature for 3.8, which will allow to put breaks on self-heal traffic)

Hello, Pranith. The typical behavior is that the %cpu on a glusterfsd process jumps to number of processor cores available (800% or 1200%, depending on the pair of nodes involved) and the load average on the machine goes very high (~20). The volume's heal statistics output shows that it is crawling one of the bricks and trying to heal, but this crawl hangs and never seems to finish.

The number of files in the xattrop directory varies over time, so I ran a wc -l as you requested periodically for some time and then started including a datestamped list of the files that were in the xattrops directory on each brick to see which were persistent. All bricks had files in the xattrop folder, so all results are attached.

Thanks this info is helpful. I don't see a lot of files. Could you give output of "gluster volume heal <volname> info"? Is there any directory in there which is LARGE?

Pranith

Please let me know if there is anything else I can provide.

Could you give me the output of "ls <brick-path>/indices/xattrop | wc -l" output on all the bricks which are acting this way? This will tell us the number of pending self-heals on the system.

I am having issues with 3.6.6 where the load will spike up to 800% for one of the glusterfsd processes and the users can no longer access the system.  If I reboot the node, the heal will finish normally after a few minutes and the system will be responsive, but a few hours later the issue will start again.  It look like it is hanging in a heal and spinning up the load on one of the bricks.  The heal gets stuck and says it is crawling and never returns.  After a few minutes of the heal saying it is crawling, the load spikes up and the mounts become unresponsive.

 

Any suggestions on how to fix this?  It has us stopped cold as the user can no longer access the systems when the load spikes... Logs attached.
