Failed rebalance - lost files, inaccessible files, permission issues

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

 



I'm starting a new thread on this, because I have more concrete 
information than I did the first time around.  The full rebalance log 
from the machine where I started the rebalance can be found at the 
following link.  It is slightly redacted - one search/replace was made 
to replace an identifying word with REDACTED.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/97770508/mdfs-rebalance-redacted.zip

The existing servers are running version 3.3.1-11.el6.x86_64, from 
kkeithley's epel repository.  Those servers have CentOS 6.3 on them.

The newer servers are running version 3.3.1-15.el6.x86_64, and are 
CentOS 6.4, fully upgraded as of October 28th, 2013.  Both sets of 
servers have contrib, plus, epel, rpmforge, and kkeithley's glusterfs repo.

One of our developers went through the log linked above and some of the 
source code.  I am reproducing his detailed comments below.  I have not 
looked at the log super-closely, except to produce a list of files that 
failed to migrate.

What I'm hoping is that this information can either point us at some 
proof (bug, committed patch, etc) that the problem is fixed in 3.4.1, or 
we can use it to file a new new bug.  I'm hoping that either an upgrade 
will fix it or that a workaround can be found.

I'm still hoping to hire someone to look things over.  Where can I find 
some good resources for this?  I tried sending a message to Redhat 
Consulting, but something may have gone wrong with that process, because 
it's been two days with no response.

Full quote from our developer:

------------------------------
Preface:  I know what happened to the files and it's not what I thought 
it was.  I don't know the exact cause but we're closer.

Here's where I throw away my vague hunch of two days ago.  I just 
realized that all the ZUMA files I saw on the new bricks were simply 
links created when users tried to access the files.  We did indeed 
rebalance on the files in chronological order of their uploads.  That 
was a two-day-long wrong-tree barking session because I didn't 
understand the architecture.

When I looked at the individual cases of lost or corrupted files, one 
thing kept staring at me in the face until I recognized it:

Three simultaneous processes on the same file!  Of course that would 
have undefined results, and be the cause of all our problems.  NFS may 
not be related after all.

Tediously scrolling through the error log I found mostly errors where it 
refused to copy files from a more empty brick to a fuller brick, which 
makes perfect sense.  The wheels started falling off about 26 hours into 
the rebalance.

The assertion failures actually go on for thousands of lines even though 
only 3 seconds have elapsed.  Eventually it overcame whatever that 
handshake error means.  Not long after:

[2013-10-29 23:13:49.611069] I [dht-rebalance.c:647:dht_migrate_file] 
0-mdfs-dht: /REDACTED/mdfs/KPA/kpacontentminepix/docs/008/058:

attempting to move from mdfs-replicate-1 to mdfs-replicate-6

and there's our first lost file.  From that point on, we were trashing 
files with simultaneous copy processes.  I think a process hung up, and 
a new one was spawned, and when the first process woke back up it didn't 
know enough to stop.
