BlueStore Migration
=====================
Each OSD can run either BlueStore or FileStore, and a single Ceph
cluster can contain a mix of both. Users who have previously deployed
FileStore are likely to want to transition to BlueStore in order to
take advantage of the improved performance and robustness. There are
several strategies for making such a transition.
An individual OSD cannot be converted in place in isolation, however:
BlueStore and FileStore are simply too different for that to be
practical. "Conversion" will rely either on the cluster's normal
replication and healing support or tools and strategies that copy OSD
content from an old (FileStore) device to a new (BlueStore) one.
Deploy new OSDs with BlueStore
==============================
Any new OSDs (e.g., when the cluster is expanded) can be deployed
using BlueStore. This is the default behavior so no specific change
is needed.
Similarly, any OSDs that are reprovisioned after replacing a failed drive
can use BlueStore.
Convert existing OSDs
=====================
Mark out and replace
--------------------
The simplest approach is to mark out each device in turn, wait for the
data to replicate across the cluster, reprovision the OSD, and mark
it back in again. It is simple and easy to automate. However, it requires
more data migration than should be necessary, so it is not optimal.
#. Identify a FileStore OSD to replace::
ID=<osd-id-number>
DEVICE=<disk-device>
You can tell whether a given OSD is FileStore or BlueStore with::
ceph osd metadata $ID | grep osd_objectstore
You can get a current count of filestore vs bluestore with::
ceph osd count-metadata osd_objectstore
#. Mark the filestore OSD out::
ceph osd out $ID
#. Wait for the data to migrate off the OSD in question::
while ! ceph osd safe-to-destroy $ID ; do sleep 60 ; done
#. Stop the OSD::
systemctl kill ceph-osd@$ID
#. Make note of which device this OSD is using::
mount | grep /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-$ID
#. Unmount the OSD::
umount /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-$ID
#. Destroy the OSD data. Be *EXTREMELY CAREFUL* as this will destroy
the contents of the device; be certain the data on the device is
not needed (i.e., that the cluster is healthy) before proceeding. ::
ceph-volume lvm zap $DEVICE
#. Tell the cluster the OSD has been destroyed (and a new OSD can be
reprovisioned with the same ID)::
ceph osd destroy $ID --yes-i-really-mean-it
#. Reprovision a BlueStore OSD in its place with the same OSD ID.
This requires you do identify which device to wipe based on what you saw
mounted above. BE CAREFUL! ::
ceph-volume lvm create --bluestore --data $DEVICE --osd-id $ID
#. Repeat.
You can allow the refilling of the replacement OSD to happen
concurrently with the draining of the next OSD, or follow the same
procedure for multiple OSDs in parallel, as long as you ensure the
cluster is fully clean (all data has all replicas) before destroying
any OSDs. Failure to do so will reduce the redundancy of your data
and increase the risk of (or potentially even cause) data loss.
Advantages:
* Simple.
* Can be done on a device-by-device basis.
* No spare devices or hosts are required.
Disadvantages:
* Data is copied over the network twice: once to some other OSD in the
cluster (to maintain the desired number of replicas), and then again
back to the reprovisioned BlueStore OSD.
Whole host replacement
----------------------
If you have a spare host in the cluster, or have sufficient free space
to evacuate an entire host in order to use it as a spare, then the
conversion can be done on a host-by-host basis with each stored copy of
the data migrating only once.
First, you need have empty host that has no data. There are two ways to do this: either by starting with a new, empty host that isn't yet part of the cluster, or by offloading data from an existing host that in the cluster.
Use a new, empty host
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Ideally the host should have roughly the
same capacity as other hosts you will be converting (although it
doesn't strictly matter). ::
NEWHOST=<empty-host-name>
Add the host to the CRUSH hierarchy, but do not attach it to the root::
ceph osd crush add-bucket $NEWHOST host
Make sure the ceph packages are installed.
Use an existing host
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you would like to use an existing host
that is already part of the cluster, and there is sufficient free
space on that host so that all of its data can be migrated off,
then you can instead do::
OLDHOST=<existing-cluster-host-to-offload>
ceph osd crush unlink $OLDHOST default
where "default" is the immediate ancestor in the CRUSH map. (For
smaller clusters with unmodified configurations this will normally
be "default", but it might also be a rack name.) You should now
see the host at the top of the OSD tree output with no parent::
$ bin/ceph osd tree
ID CLASS WEIGHT TYPE NAME STATUS REWEIGHT PRI-AFF
-5 0 host oldhost
10 ssd 1.00000 osd.10 up 1.00000 1.00000
11 ssd 1.00000 osd.11 up 1.00000 1.00000
12 ssd 1.00000 osd.12 up 1.00000 1.00000
-1 3.00000 root default
-2 3.00000 host foo
0 ssd 1.00000 osd.0 up 1.00000 1.00000
1 ssd 1.00000 osd.1 up 1.00000 1.00000
2 ssd 1.00000 osd.2 up 1.00000 1.00000
...
If everything looks good, jump directly to the "Wait for data
migration to complete" step below and proceed from there to clean up
the old OSDs.
Migration process
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you're using a new host, start at step #1. For an existing host,
jump to step #5 below.
#. Provision new BlueStore OSDs for all devices::
ceph-volume lvm create --bluestore --data /dev/$DEVICE
#. Verify OSDs join the cluster with::
ceph osd tree
You should see the new host ``$NEWHOST`` with all of the OSDs beneath
it, but the host should *not* be nested beneath any other node in
hierarchy (like ``root default``). For example, if ``newhost`` is
the empty host, you might see something like::
$ bin/ceph osd tree
ID CLASS WEIGHT TYPE NAME STATUS REWEIGHT PRI-AFF
-5 0 host newhost
10 ssd 1.00000 osd.10 up 1.00000 1.00000
11 ssd 1.00000 osd.11 up 1.00000 1.00000
12 ssd 1.00000 osd.12 up 1.00000 1.00000
-1 3.00000 root default
-2 3.00000 host oldhost1
0 ssd 1.00000 osd.0 up 1.00000 1.00000
1 ssd 1.00000 osd.1 up 1.00000 1.00000
2 ssd 1.00000 osd.2 up 1.00000 1.00000
...
#. Identify the first target host to convert ::
OLDHOST=<existing-cluster-host-to-convert>
#. Swap the new host into the old host's position in the cluster::
ceph osd crush swap-bucket $NEWHOST $OLDHOST
At this point all data on ``$OLDHOST`` will start migrating to OSDs
on ``$NEWHOST``. If there is a difference in the total capacity of
the old and new hosts you may also see some data migrate to or from
other nodes in the cluster, but as long as the hosts are similarly
sized this will be a relatively small amount of data.
#. Wait for data migration to complete::
while ! ceph osd safe-to-destroy $(ceph osd ls-tree $OLDHOST); do sleep 60 ; done
#. Stop all old OSDs on the now-empty ``$OLDHOST``::
ssh $OLDHOST
systemctl kill ceph-osd.target
umount /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-*
#. Destroy and purge the old OSDs::
for osd in `ceph osd ls-tree $OLDHOST`; do
ceph osd purge $osd --yes-i-really-mean-it
done
#. Wipe the old OSD devices. This requires you do identify which
devices are to be wiped manually (BE CAREFUL!). For each device,::
ceph-volume lvm zap $DEVICE
#. Use the now-empty host as the new host, and repeat::
NEWHOST=$OLDHOST
Advantages:
* Data is copied over the network only once.
* Converts an entire host's OSDs at once.
* Can parallelize to converting multiple hosts at a time.
* No spare devices are required on each host.
Disadvantages:
* A spare host is required.
* An entire host's worth of OSDs will be migrating data at a time. This
is like likely to impact overall cluster performance.
* All migrated data still makes one full hop over the network.
Per-OSD device copy
-------------------
A single logical OSD can be converted by using the ``copy`` function
of ``ceph-objectstore-tool``. This requires that the host have a free
device (or devices) to provision a new, empty BlueStore OSD. For
example, if each host in your cluster has 12 OSDs, then you'd need a
13th available device so that each OSD can be converted in turn before the
old device is reclaimed to convert the next OSD.
Caveats:
* This strategy requires that a blank BlueStore OSD be prepared
without allocating a new OSD ID, something that the ``ceph-volume``
tool doesn't support. More importantly, the setup of *dmcrypt* is
closely tied to the OSD identity, which means that this approach
does not work with encrypted OSDs.
* The device must be manually partitioned.
* Tooling not implemented!
* Not documented!
Advantages:
* Little or no data migrates over the network during the conversion.
Disadvantages:
* Tooling not fully implemented.
* Process not documented.
* Each host must have a spare or empty device.
* The OSD is offline during the conversion, which means new writes will
be written to only a subset of the OSDs. This increases the risk of data
loss due to a subsequent failure. (However, if there is a failure before
conversion is complete, the original FileStore OSD can be started to provide
access to its original data.)
