This introduces two config parameters: mds_cache_memory_limit: Sets the soft maximum of the cache to the given byte count. (Like mds_cache_size, this doesn't actually limit the maximum size of the cache. It just dictates the steady-state size.) mds_cache_reservation: This replaces mds_health_cache_threshold everywhere except the Beacon heartbeat sent to the mons. The idea here is to specify a reservation of memory (5% by default) for operations and the MDS tries to always maintain that reservation. So, the MDS will recall caps from clients when it begins dipping into its reservation of memory. mds_cache_size still limits the cache by Inode count but is now by-default 0 (i.e. unlimited). The new preferred way of specifying cache limits is by memory size. The default is 1GB.

CephFS health messages

|
Cluster health checks
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
The Ceph monitor daemons will generate health messages in response
|
|
to certain states of the filesystem map structure (and the enclosed MDS maps).
|
|
|
|
Message: mds rank(s) *ranks* have failed
|
|
Description: One or more MDS ranks are not currently assigned to
|
|
an MDS daemon; the cluster will not recover until a suitable replacement
|
|
daemon starts.
|
|
|
|
Message: mds rank(s) *ranks* are damaged
|
|
Description: One or more MDS ranks has encountered severe damage to
|
|
its stored metadata, and cannot start again until it is repaired.
|
|
|
|
Message: mds cluster is degraded
|
|
Description: One or more MDS ranks are not currently up and running, clients
|
|
may pause metadata IO until this situation is resolved. This includes
|
|
ranks being failed or damaged, and additionally includes ranks
|
|
which are running on an MDS but have not yet made it to the *active*
|
|
state (e.g. ranks currently in *replay* state).
|
|
|
|
Message: mds *names* are laggy
|
|
Description: The named MDS daemons have failed to send beacon messages
|
|
to the monitor for at least ``mds_beacon_grace`` (default 15s), while
|
|
they are supposed to send beacon messages every ``mds_beacon_interval``
|
|
(default 4s). The daemons may have crashed. The Ceph monitor will
|
|
automatically replace laggy daemons with standbys if any are available.
|
|
|
|
Message: insufficient standby daemons available
|
|
Description: One or more file systems are configured to have a certain number
|
|
of standby daemons available (including daemons in standby-replay) but the
|
|
cluster does not have enough standby daemons. The standby deamons not in replay
|
|
count towards any file system (i.e. they may overlap). This warning can
|
|
configured by setting ``ceph fs set <fs> standby_count_wanted <count>``. Use
|
|
zero for ``count`` to disable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Daemon-reported health checks
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
MDS daemons can identify a variety of unwanted conditions, and
|
|
indicate these to the operator in the output of ``ceph status``.
|
|
This conditions have human readable messages, and additionally
|
|
a unique code starting MDS_HEALTH which appears in JSON output.
|
|
|
|
Message: "Behind on trimming..."
|
|
Code: MDS_HEALTH_TRIM
|
|
Description: CephFS maintains a metadata journal that is divided into
|
|
*log segments*. The length of journal (in number of segments) is controlled
|
|
by the setting ``mds_log_max_segments``, and when the number of segments
|
|
exceeds that setting the MDS starts writing back metadata so that it
|
|
can remove (trim) the oldest segments. If this writeback is happening
|
|
too slowly, or a software bug is preventing trimming, then this health
|
|
message may appear. The threshold for this message to appear is for the
|
|
number of segments to be double ``mds_log_max_segments``.
|
|
|
|
Message: "Client *name* failing to respond to capability release"
|
|
Code: MDS_HEALTH_CLIENT_LATE_RELEASE, MDS_HEALTH_CLIENT_LATE_RELEASE_MANY
|
|
Description: CephFS clients are issued *capabilities* by the MDS, which
|
|
are like locks. Sometimes, for example when another client needs access,
|
|
the MDS will request clients release their capabilities. If the client
|
|
is unresponsive or buggy, it might fail to do so promptly or fail to do
|
|
so at all. This message appears if a client has taken longer than
|
|
``mds_revoke_cap_timeout`` (default 60s) to comply.
|
|
|
|
Message: "Client *name* failing to respond to cache pressure"
|
|
Code: MDS_HEALTH_CLIENT_RECALL, MDS_HEALTH_CLIENT_RECALL_MANY
|
|
Description: Clients maintain a metadata cache. Items (such as inodes) in the
|
|
client cache are also pinned in the MDS cache, so when the MDS needs to shrink
|
|
its cache (to stay within ``mds_cache_size`` or ``mds_cache_memory_limit``), it
|
|
sends messages to clients to shrink their caches too. If the client is
|
|
unresponsive or buggy, this can prevent the MDS from properly staying within
|
|
its cache limits and it may eventually run out of memory and crash. This
|
|
message appears if a client has taken more than ``mds_recall_state_timeout``
|
|
(default 60s) to comply.
|
|
|
|
Message: "Client *name* failing to advance its oldest client/flush tid"
|
|
Code: MDS_HEALTH_CLIENT_OLDEST_TID, MDS_HEALTH_CLIENT_OLDEST_TID_MANY
|
|
Description: The CephFS client-MDS protocol uses a field called the
|
|
*oldest tid* to inform the MDS of which client requests are fully
|
|
complete and may therefore be forgotten about by the MDS. If a buggy
|
|
client is failing to advance this field, then the MDS may be prevented
|
|
from properly cleaning up resources used by client requests. This message
|
|
appears if a client appears to have more than ``max_completed_requests``
|
|
(default 100000) requests that are complete on the MDS side but haven't
|
|
yet been accounted for in the client's *oldest tid* value.
|
|
|
|
Message: "Metadata damage detected"
|
|
Code: MDS_HEALTH_DAMAGE,
|
|
Description: Corrupt or missing metadata was encountered when reading
|
|
from the metadata pool. This message indicates that the damage was
|
|
sufficiently isolated for the MDS to continue operating, although
|
|
client accesses to the damaged subtree will return IO errors. Use
|
|
the ``damage ls`` admin socket command to get more detail on the damage.
|
|
This message appears as soon as any damage is encountered.
|
|
|
|
Message: "MDS in read-only mode"
|
|
Code: MDS_HEALTH_READ_ONLY,
|
|
Description: The MDS has gone into readonly mode and will return EROFS
|
|
error codes to client operations that attempt to modify any metadata. The
|
|
MDS will go into readonly mode if it encounters a write error while
|
|
writing to the metadata pool, or if forced to by an administrator using
|
|
the *force_readonly* admin socket command.
|
|
|
|
Message: *N* slow requests are blocked"
|
|
Code: MDS_HEALTH_SLOW_REQUEST,
|
|
Description: One or more client requests have not been completed promptly,
|
|
indicating that the MDS is either running very slowly, or that the RADOS
|
|
cluster is not acknowledging journal writes promptly, or that there is a bug.
|
|
Use the ``ops`` admin socket command to list outstanding metadata operations.
|
|
This message appears if any client requests have taken longer than
|
|
``mds_op_complaint_time`` (default 30s).
|
|
|
|
Message: "Too many inodes in cache"
|
|
Code: MDS_HEALTH_CACHE_OVERSIZED
|
|
Description: The MDS is not succeeding in trimming its cache to comply with the
|
|
limit set by the administrator. If the MDS cache becomes too large, the daemon
|
|
may exhaust available memory and crash. By default, this message appears if
|
|
the actual cache size (in inodes or memory) is at least 50% greater than
|
|
``mds_cache_size`` (default 100000) or ``mds_cache_memory_limit`` (default
|
|
1GB). Modify ``mds_health_cache_threshold`` to set the warning ratio.
