mClock Config Reference
========================
.. index:: mclock; configuration
QoS support in Ceph is implemented using a queuing scheduler based on `the
dmClock algorithm`_. See :ref:`dmclock-qos` section for more details.
To make the usage of mclock more user-friendly and intuitive, mclock config
profiles are introduced. The mclock profiles mask the low level details from
users, making it easier to configure and use mclock.
The following input parameters are required for a mclock profile to configure
the QoS related parameters:
* total capacity (IOPS) of each OSD (determined automatically -
See `OSD Capacity Determination (Automated)`_)
* the max sequential bandwidth capacity (MiB/s) of each OSD -
See *osd_mclock_max_sequential_bandwidth_[hdd|ssd]* option
* an mclock profile type to enable
Using the settings in the specified profile, an OSD determines and applies the
lower-level mclock and Ceph parameters. The parameters applied by the mclock
profile make it possible to tune the QoS between client I/O and background
operations in the OSD.
.. index:: mclock; mclock clients
mClock Client Types
===================
The mclock scheduler handles requests from different types of Ceph services.
Each service can be considered as a type of client from mclock's perspective.
Depending on the type of requests handled, mclock clients are classified into
the buckets as shown in the table below,
+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| Client Type | Request Types |
+========================+==============================================================+
| Client | I/O requests issued by external clients of Ceph |
+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| Background recovery | Internal recovery requests |
+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
| Background best-effort | Internal backfill, scrub, snap trim and PG deletion requests |
+------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
The mclock profiles allocate parameters like reservation, weight and limit
(see :ref:`dmclock-qos`) differently for each client type. The next sections
describe the mclock profiles in greater detail.
.. index:: mclock; profile definition
mClock Profiles - Definition and Purpose
========================================
A mclock profile is *“a configuration setting that when applied on a running
Ceph cluster enables the throttling of the operations(IOPS) belonging to
different client classes (background recovery, scrub, snaptrim, client op,
osd subop)”*.
The mclock profile uses the capacity limits and the mclock profile type selected
by the user to determine the low-level mclock resource control configuration
parameters and apply them transparently. Additionally, other Ceph configuration
parameters are also applied. Please see sections below for more information.
The low-level mclock resource control parameters are the *reservation*,
*limit*, and *weight* that provide control of the resource shares, as
described in the :ref:`dmclock-qos` section.
.. index:: mclock; profile types
mClock Profile Types
====================
mclock profiles can be broadly classified into *built-in* and *custom* profiles,
Built-in Profiles
-----------------
Users can choose between the following built-in profile types:
.. note:: The values mentioned in the tables below represent the proportion
of the total IOPS capacity of the OSD allocated for the service type.
* balanced (default)
* high_client_ops
* high_recovery_ops
balanced (*default*)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The *balanced* profile is the default mClock profile. This profile allocates
equal reservation/priority to client operations and background recovery
operations. Background best-effort ops are given lower reservation and therefore
take a longer time to complete when are are competing operations. This profile
helps meet the normal/steady-state requirements of the cluster. This is the
case when external client performance requirement is not critical and there are
other background operations that still need attention within the OSD.
But there might be instances that necessitate giving higher allocations to either
client ops or recovery ops. In order to deal with such a situation, the alternate
built-in profiles may be enabled by following the steps mentioned in next sections.
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
| Service Type | Reservation | Weight | Limit |
+========================+=============+========+=======+
| client | 50% | 1 | MAX |
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
| background recovery | 50% | 1 | MAX |
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
| background best-effort | MIN | 1 | 90% |
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
high_client_ops
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This profile optimizes client performance over background activities by
allocating more reservation and limit to client operations as compared to
background operations in the OSD. This profile, for example, may be enabled
to provide the needed performance for I/O intensive applications for a
sustained period of time at the cost of slower recoveries. The table shows
the resource control parameters set by the profile:
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
| Service Type | Reservation | Weight | Limit |
+========================+=============+========+=======+
| client | 60% | 2 | MAX |
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
| background recovery | 40% | 1 | MAX |
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
| background best-effort | MIN | 1 | 70% |
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
high_recovery_ops
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This profile optimizes background recovery performance as compared to external
clients and other background operations within the OSD. This profile, for
example, may be enabled by an administrator temporarily to speed-up background
recoveries during non-peak hours. The table shows the resource control
parameters set by the profile:
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
| Service Type | Reservation | Weight | Limit |
+========================+=============+========+=======+
| client | 30% | 1 | MAX |
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
| background recovery | 70% | 2 | MAX |
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
| background best-effort | MIN | 1 | MAX |
+------------------------+-------------+--------+-------+
.. note:: Across the built-in profiles, internal background best-effort clients
of mclock include "backfill", "scrub", "snap trim", and "pg deletion"
operations.
Custom Profile
--------------
This profile gives users complete control over all the mclock configuration
parameters. This profile should be used with caution and is meant for advanced
users, who understand mclock and Ceph related configuration options.
.. index:: mclock; shard config for HDD clusters
.. _mclock-hdd-cfg:
OSD Shard Configuration For HDD Based Clusters With mClock
==========================================================
Each OSD is configured with one or more shards to perform tasks. Each shard
comprises a unique queue to handle various types of OSD specific operations
like client I/O, recovery, scrub and so on. The scheduling of these operations
in the queue is performed by a scheduler - in this case the mClock scheduler.
For HDD based OSDs, the number of shards is controlled by configuration
:confval:`osd_op_num_shards_hdd`. Items are queued and dequeued by one or
more worker threads and this is controlled by configuration
:confval:`osd_op_num_threads_per_shard_hdd`.
As described in :ref:`dmclock-qos-caveats`, the number of OSD shards employed
determines the impact of mClock queue. In general, a lower number of shards
increases the impact of mClock queues with respect to scheduling accuracy.
This is providing there are enough number of worker threads per shard
to help process the items in the mClock queue.
Based on tests performed at scale with small objects in the range
[1 KiB - 256 KiB] on a HDD based cluster (192 OSDs, 8 nodes,
150 Million objects), it was found that scheduling with mClock was not optimal
with multiple OSD shards. For example, in this cluster with multiple OSD node
failures, the client throughput was found to be inconsistent across test runs
coupled with multiple reported slow requests. For more details
see https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/66289. With multiple shards, the situation
was exacerbated when MAX limit was allocated to both client and background
recovery class of operations. During the OSD failure phase, since both client
and recovery ops were in direct competition to utilize the full bandwidth of
OSDs, there was no predictability with respect to the throughput of either
class of services.
However, the same test with a single OSD shard and with multiple worker threads
yielded significantly better results in terms of consistency of client and
recovery throughput across multiple test runs. Please refer to the tracker
above for more details. For sanity, the same test executed using this shard
configuration with large objects in the range [1 MiB - 256 MiB] yielded similar
results.
Therefore, as an interim measure until the issue with multiple OSD shards
(or multiple mClock queues per OSD) is investigated and fixed, the following
change to the default HDD OSD shard configuration is made:
+---------------------------------------------+------------------+----------------+
| Config Option | Old Default | New Default |
+=============================================+==================+================+
| :confval:`osd_op_num_shards_hdd` | 5 | 1 |
+---------------------------------------------+------------------+----------------+
| :confval:`osd_op_num_threads_per_shard_hdd` | 1 | 5 |
+---------------------------------------------+------------------+----------------+
.. index:: mclock; built-in profiles
mClock Built-in Profiles - Locked Config Options
=================================================
The below sections describe the config options that are locked to certain values
in order to ensure mClock scheduler is able to provide predictable QoS.
mClock Config Options
---------------------
.. important:: These defaults cannot be changed using any of the config
subsytem commands like *config set* or via the *config daemon* or *config
tell* interfaces. Although the above command(s) report success, the mclock
QoS parameters are reverted to their respective built-in profile defaults.
When a built-in profile is enabled, the mClock scheduler calculates the low
level mclock parameters [*reservation*, *weight*, *limit*] based on the profile
enabled for each client type. The mclock parameters are calculated based on
the max OSD capacity provided beforehand. As a result, the following mclock
config parameters cannot be modified when using any of the built-in profiles:
- :confval:`osd_mclock_scheduler_client_res`
- :confval:`osd_mclock_scheduler_client_wgt`
- :confval:`osd_mclock_scheduler_client_lim`
- :confval:`osd_mclock_scheduler_background_recovery_res`
- :confval:`osd_mclock_scheduler_background_recovery_wgt`
- :confval:`osd_mclock_scheduler_background_recovery_lim`
- :confval:`osd_mclock_scheduler_background_best_effort_res`
- :confval:`osd_mclock_scheduler_background_best_effort_wgt`
- :confval:`osd_mclock_scheduler_background_best_effort_lim`
Recovery/Backfill Options
-------------------------
.. warning:: The recommendation is to not change these options as the built-in
profiles are optimized based on them. Changing these defaults can result in
unexpected performance outcomes.
The following recovery and backfill related Ceph options are overridden to
mClock defaults:
- :confval:`osd_max_backfills`
- :confval:`osd_recovery_max_active`
- :confval:`osd_recovery_max_active_hdd`
- :confval:`osd_recovery_max_active_ssd`
The following table shows the mClock defaults which is the same as the current
defaults. This is done to maximize the performance of the foreground (client)
operations:
+----------------------------------------+------------------+----------------+
| Config Option | Original Default | mClock Default |
+========================================+==================+================+
| :confval:`osd_max_backfills` | 1 | 1 |
+----------------------------------------+------------------+----------------+
| :confval:`osd_recovery_max_active` | 0 | 0 |
+----------------------------------------+------------------+----------------+
| :confval:`osd_recovery_max_active_hdd` | 3 | 3 |
+----------------------------------------+------------------+----------------+
| :confval:`osd_recovery_max_active_ssd` | 10 | 10 |
+----------------------------------------+------------------+----------------+
The above mClock defaults, can be modified only if necessary by enabling
:confval:`osd_mclock_override_recovery_settings` (default: false). The
steps for this is discussed in the
`Steps to Modify mClock Max Backfills/Recovery Limits`_ section.
Sleep Options
-------------
If any mClock profile (including "custom") is active, the following Ceph config
sleep options are disabled (set to 0),
- :confval:`osd_recovery_sleep`
- :confval:`osd_recovery_sleep_hdd`
- :confval:`osd_recovery_sleep_ssd`
- :confval:`osd_recovery_sleep_hybrid`
- :confval:`osd_scrub_sleep`
- :confval:`osd_delete_sleep`
- :confval:`osd_delete_sleep_hdd`
- :confval:`osd_delete_sleep_ssd`
- :confval:`osd_delete_sleep_hybrid`
- :confval:`osd_snap_trim_sleep`
- :confval:`osd_snap_trim_sleep_hdd`
- :confval:`osd_snap_trim_sleep_ssd`
- :confval:`osd_snap_trim_sleep_hybrid`
The above sleep options are disabled to ensure that mclock scheduler is able to
determine when to pick the next op from its operation queue and transfer it to
the operation sequencer. This results in the desired QoS being provided across
all its clients.
.. index:: mclock; enable built-in profile
Steps to Enable mClock Profile
==============================
As already mentioned, the default mclock profile is set to *balanced*.
The other values for the built-in profiles include *high_client_ops* and
*high_recovery_ops*.
If there is a requirement to change the default profile, then the option
:confval:`osd_mclock_profile` may be set during runtime by using the following
command:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd.N osd_mclock_profile <value>
For example, to change the profile to allow faster recoveries on "osd.0", the
following command can be used to switch to the *high_recovery_ops* profile:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd.0 osd_mclock_profile high_recovery_ops
.. note:: The *custom* profile is not recommended unless you are an advanced
user.
And that's it! You are ready to run workloads on the cluster and check if the
QoS requirements are being met.
Switching Between Built-in and Custom Profiles
==============================================
There may be situations requiring switching from a built-in profile to the
*custom* profile and vice-versa. The following sections outline the steps to
accomplish this.
Steps to Switch From a Built-in to the Custom Profile
-----------------------------------------------------
The following command can be used to switch to the *custom* profile:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd osd_mclock_profile custom
For example, to change the profile to *custom* on all OSDs, the following
command can be used:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd osd_mclock_profile custom
After switching to the *custom* profile, the desired mClock configuration
option may be modified. For example, to change the client reservation IOPS
ratio for a specific OSD (say osd.0) to 0.5 (or 50%), the following command
can be used:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd.0 osd_mclock_scheduler_client_res 0.5
.. important:: Care must be taken to change the reservations of other services
like recovery and background best effort accordingly to ensure that the sum
of the reservations do not exceed the maximum proportion (1.0) of the IOPS
capacity of the OSD.
.. tip:: The reservation and limit parameter allocations are per-shard based on
the type of backing device (HDD/SSD) under the OSD. See
:confval:`osd_op_num_shards_hdd` and :confval:`osd_op_num_shards_ssd` for
more details.
Steps to Switch From the Custom Profile to a Built-in Profile
-------------------------------------------------------------
Switching from the *custom* profile to a built-in profile requires an
intermediate step of removing the custom settings from the central config
database for the changes to take effect.
The following sequence of commands can be used to switch to a built-in profile:
#. Set the desired built-in profile using:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd <mClock Configuration Option>
For example, to set the built-in profile to ``high_client_ops`` on all
OSDs, run the following command:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd osd_mclock_profile high_client_ops
#. Determine the existing custom mClock configuration settings in the central
config database using the following command:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config dump
#. Remove the custom mClock configuration settings determined in the previous
step from the central config database:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config rm osd <mClock Configuration Option>
For example, to remove the configuration option
:confval:`osd_mclock_scheduler_client_res` that was set on all OSDs, run the
following command:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config rm osd osd_mclock_scheduler_client_res
#. After all existing custom mClock configuration settings have been removed
from the central config database, the configuration settings pertaining to
``high_client_ops`` will come into effect. For e.g., to verify the settings
on osd.0 use:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config show osd.0
Switch Temporarily Between mClock Profiles
------------------------------------------
To switch between mClock profiles on a temporary basis, the following commands
may be used to override the settings:
.. warning:: This section is for advanced users or for experimental testing. The
recommendation is to not use the below commands on a running cluster as it
could have unexpected outcomes.
.. note:: The configuration changes on an OSD using the below commands are
ephemeral and are lost when it restarts. It is also important to note that
the config options overridden using the below commands cannot be modified
further using the *ceph config set osd.N ...* command. The changes will not
take effect until a given OSD is restarted. This is intentional, as per the
config subsystem design. However, any further modification can still be made
ephemerally using the commands mentioned below.
#. Run the *injectargs* command as shown to override the mclock settings:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph tell osd.N injectargs '--<mClock Configuration Option>=<value>'
For example, the following command overrides the
:confval:`osd_mclock_profile` option on osd.0:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph tell osd.0 injectargs '--osd_mclock_profile=high_recovery_ops'
#. An alternate command that can be used is:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph daemon osd.N config set <mClock Configuration Option> <value>
For example, the following command overrides the
:confval:`osd_mclock_profile` option on osd.0:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph daemon osd.0 config set osd_mclock_profile high_recovery_ops
The individual QoS-related config options for the *custom* profile can also be
modified ephemerally using the above commands.
Steps to Modify mClock Max Backfills/Recovery Limits
====================================================
This section describes the steps to modify the default max backfills or recovery
limits if the need arises.
.. warning:: This section is for advanced users or for experimental testing. The
recommendation is to retain the defaults as is on a running cluster as
modifying them could have unexpected performance outcomes. The values may
be modified only if the cluster is unable to cope/showing poor performance
with the default settings or for performing experiments on a test cluster.
.. important:: The max backfill/recovery options that can be modified are listed
in section `Recovery/Backfill Options`_. The modification of the mClock
default backfills/recovery limit is gated by the
:confval:`osd_mclock_override_recovery_settings` option, which is set to
*false* by default. Attempting to modify any default recovery/backfill
limits without setting the gating option will reset that option back to the
mClock defaults along with a warning message logged in the cluster log. Note
that it may take a few seconds for the default value to come back into
effect. Verify the limit using the *config show* command as shown below.
#. Set the :confval:`osd_mclock_override_recovery_settings` config option on all
osds to *true* using:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd osd_mclock_override_recovery_settings true
#. Set the desired max backfill/recovery option using:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd osd_max_backfills <value>
For example, the following command modifies the :confval:`osd_max_backfills`
option on all osds to 5.
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd osd_max_backfills 5
#. Wait for a few seconds and verify the running configuration for a specific
OSD using:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config show osd.N | grep osd_max_backfills
For example, the following command shows the running configuration of
:confval:`osd_max_backfills` on osd.0.
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config show osd.0 | grep osd_max_backfills
#. Reset the :confval:`osd_mclock_override_recovery_settings` config option on
all osds to *false* using:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd osd_mclock_override_recovery_settings false
OSD Capacity Determination (Automated)
======================================
The OSD capacity in terms of total IOPS is determined automatically during OSD
initialization. This is achieved by running the OSD bench tool and overriding
the default value of ``osd_mclock_max_capacity_iops_[hdd, ssd]`` option
depending on the device type. No other action/input is expected from the user
to set the OSD capacity.
.. note:: If you wish to manually benchmark OSD(s) or manually tune the
Bluestore throttle parameters, see section
`Steps to Manually Benchmark an OSD (Optional)`_.
You may verify the capacity of an OSD after the cluster is brought up by using
the following command:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config show osd.N osd_mclock_max_capacity_iops_[hdd, ssd]
For example, the following command shows the max capacity for "osd.0" on a Ceph
node whose underlying device type is SSD:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config show osd.0 osd_mclock_max_capacity_iops_ssd
Mitigation of Unrealistic OSD Capacity From Automated Test
----------------------------------------------------------
In certain conditions, the OSD bench tool may show unrealistic/inflated result
depending on the drive configuration and other environment related conditions.
To mitigate the performance impact due to this unrealistic capacity, a couple
of threshold config options depending on the osd's device type are defined and
used:
- :confval:`osd_mclock_iops_capacity_threshold_hdd` = 500
- :confval:`osd_mclock_iops_capacity_threshold_ssd` = 80000
The following automated step is performed:
Fallback to using default OSD capacity (automated)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If OSD bench reports a measurement that exceeds the above threshold values
depending on the underlying device type, the fallback mechanism reverts to the
default value of :confval:`osd_mclock_max_capacity_iops_hdd` or
:confval:`osd_mclock_max_capacity_iops_ssd`. The threshold config options
can be reconfigured based on the type of drive used. Additionally, a cluster
warning is logged in case the measurement exceeds the threshold. For example, ::
2022-10-27T15:30:23.270+0000 7f9b5dbe95c0 0 log_channel(cluster) log [WRN]
: OSD bench result of 39546.479392 IOPS exceeded the threshold limit of
25000.000000 IOPS for osd.1. IOPS capacity is unchanged at 21500.000000
IOPS. The recommendation is to establish the osd's IOPS capacity using other
benchmark tools (e.g. Fio) and then override
osd_mclock_max_capacity_iops_[hdd|ssd].
If the default capacity doesn't accurately represent the OSD's capacity, the
following additional step is recommended to address this:
Run custom drive benchmark if defaults are not accurate (manual)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If the default OSD capacity is not accurate, the recommendation is to run a
custom benchmark using your preferred tool (e.g. Fio) on the drive and then
override the ``osd_mclock_max_capacity_iops_[hdd, ssd]`` option as described
in the `Specifying Max OSD Capacity`_ section.
This step is highly recommended until an alternate mechansim is worked upon.
Steps to Manually Benchmark an OSD (Optional)
=============================================
.. note:: These steps are only necessary if you want to override the OSD
capacity already determined automatically during OSD initialization.
Otherwise, you may skip this section entirely.
.. tip:: If you have already determined the benchmark data and wish to manually
override the max osd capacity for an OSD, you may skip to section
`Specifying Max OSD Capacity`_.
Any existing benchmarking tool (e.g. Fio) can be used for this purpose. In this
case, the steps use the *Ceph OSD Bench* command described in the next section.
Regardless of the tool/command used, the steps outlined further below remain the
same.
As already described in the :ref:`dmclock-qos` section, the number of
shards and the bluestore's throttle parameters have an impact on the mclock op
queues. Therefore, it is critical to set these values carefully in order to
maximize the impact of the mclock scheduler.
:Number of Operational Shards:
We recommend using the default number of shards as defined by the
configuration options ``osd_op_num_shards``, ``osd_op_num_shards_hdd``, and
``osd_op_num_shards_ssd``. In general, a lower number of shards will increase
the impact of the mclock queues.
:Bluestore Throttle Parameters:
We recommend using the default values as defined by
:confval:`bluestore_throttle_bytes` and
:confval:`bluestore_throttle_deferred_bytes`. But these parameters may also be
determined during the benchmarking phase as described below.
OSD Bench Command Syntax
------------------------
The :ref:`osd-subsystem` section describes the OSD bench command. The syntax
used for benchmarking is shown below :
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph tell osd.N bench [TOTAL_BYTES] [BYTES_PER_WRITE] [OBJ_SIZE] [NUM_OBJS]
where,
* ``TOTAL_BYTES``: Total number of bytes to write
* ``BYTES_PER_WRITE``: Block size per write
* ``OBJ_SIZE``: Bytes per object
* ``NUM_OBJS``: Number of objects to write
Benchmarking Test Steps Using OSD Bench
---------------------------------------
The steps below use the default shards and detail the steps used to determine
the correct bluestore throttle values (optional).
#. Bring up your Ceph cluster and login to the Ceph node hosting the OSDs that
you wish to benchmark.
#. Run a simple 4KiB random write workload on an OSD using the following
commands:
.. note:: Note that before running the test, caches must be cleared to get an
accurate measurement.
For example, if you are running the benchmark test on osd.0, run the following
commands:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph tell osd.0 cache drop
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph tell osd.0 bench 12288000 4096 4194304 100
#. Note the overall throughput(IOPS) obtained from the output of the osd bench
command. This value is the baseline throughput(IOPS) when the default
bluestore throttle options are in effect.
#. If the intent is to determine the bluestore throttle values for your
environment, then set the two options, :confval:`bluestore_throttle_bytes`
and :confval:`bluestore_throttle_deferred_bytes` to 32 KiB(32768 Bytes) each
to begin with. Otherwise, you may skip to the next section.
#. Run the 4KiB random write test as before using OSD bench.
#. Note the overall throughput from the output and compare the value
against the baseline throughput recorded in step 3.
#. If the throughput doesn't match with the baseline, increment the bluestore
throttle options by 2x and repeat steps 5 through 7 until the obtained
throughput is very close to the baseline value.
For example, during benchmarking on a machine with NVMe SSDs, a value of 256 KiB
for both bluestore throttle and deferred bytes was determined to maximize the
impact of mclock. For HDDs, the corresponding value was 40 MiB, where the
overall throughput was roughly equal to the baseline throughput. Note that in
general for HDDs, the bluestore throttle values are expected to be higher when
compared to SSDs.
Specifying Max OSD Capacity
----------------------------
The steps in this section may be performed only if you want to override the
max osd capacity automatically set during OSD initialization. The option
``osd_mclock_max_capacity_iops_[hdd, ssd]`` for an OSD can be set by running the
following command:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd.N osd_mclock_max_capacity_iops_[hdd,ssd] <value>
For example, the following command sets the max capacity for a specific OSD
(say "osd.0") whose underlying device type is HDD to 350 IOPS:
.. prompt:: bash #
ceph config set osd.0 osd_mclock_max_capacity_iops_hdd 350
Alternatively, you may specify the max capacity for OSDs within the Ceph
configuration file under the respective [osd.N] section. See
:ref:`ceph-conf-settings` for more details.
