CephFS Administrative commands
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
File Systems
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
These commands operate on the CephFS file systems in your Ceph cluster.
|
|
Note that by default only one file system is permitted: to enable
|
|
creation of multiple file systems use ``ceph fs flag set enable_multiple true``.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs new <file system name> <metadata pool name> <data pool name>
|
|
|
|
This command creates a new file system. The file system name and metadata pool
|
|
name are self-explanatory. The specified data pool is the default data pool and
|
|
cannot be changed once set. Each file system has its own set of MDS daemons
|
|
assigned to ranks so ensure that you have sufficient standby daemons available
|
|
to accommodate the new file system.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs ls
|
|
|
|
List all file systems by name.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs dump [epoch]
|
|
|
|
This dumps the FSMap at the given epoch (default: current) which includes all
|
|
file system settings, MDS daemons and the ranks they hold, and the list of
|
|
standby MDS daemons.
|
|
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs rm <file system name> [--yes-i-really-mean-it]
|
|
|
|
Destroy a CephFS file system. This wipes information about the state of the
|
|
file system from the FSMap. The metadata pool and data pools are untouched and
|
|
must be destroyed separately.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs get <file system name>
|
|
|
|
Get information about the named file system, including settings and ranks. This
|
|
is a subset of the same information from the ``fs dump`` command.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs set <file system name> <var> <val>
|
|
|
|
Change a setting on a file system. These settings are specific to the named
|
|
file system and do not affect other file systems.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs add_data_pool <file system name> <pool name/id>
|
|
|
|
Add a data pool to the file system. This pool can be used for file layouts
|
|
as an alternate location to store file data.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs rm_data_pool <file system name> <pool name/id>
|
|
|
|
This command removes the specified pool from the list of data pools for the
|
|
file system. If any files have layouts for the removed data pool, the file
|
|
data will become unavailable. The default data pool (when creating the file
|
|
system) cannot be removed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Settings
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs set <fs name> max_file_size <size in bytes>
|
|
|
|
CephFS has a configurable maximum file size, and it's 1TB by default.
|
|
You may wish to set this limit higher if you expect to store large files
|
|
in CephFS. It is a 64-bit field.
|
|
|
|
Setting ``max_file_size`` to 0 does not disable the limit. It would
|
|
simply limit clients to only creating empty files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Maximum file sizes and performance
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
CephFS enforces the maximum file size limit at the point of appending to
|
|
files or setting their size. It does not affect how anything is stored.
|
|
|
|
When users create a file of an enormous size (without necessarily
|
|
writing any data to it), some operations (such as deletes) cause the MDS
|
|
to have to do a large number of operations to check if any of the RADOS
|
|
objects within the range that could exist (according to the file size)
|
|
really existed.
|
|
|
|
The ``max_file_size`` setting prevents users from creating files that
|
|
appear to be eg. exabytes in size, causing load on the MDS as it tries
|
|
to enumerate the objects during operations like stats or deletes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Taking the cluster down
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
Taking a CephFS cluster down is done by setting the down flag:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs set <fs_name> down true
|
|
|
|
To bring the cluster back online:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs set <fs_name> down false
|
|
|
|
This will also restore the previous value of max_mds. MDS daemons are brought
|
|
down in a way such that journals are flushed to the metadata pool and all
|
|
client I/O is stopped.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Taking the cluster down rapidly for deletion or disaster recovery
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To allow rapidly deleting a file system (for testing) or to quickly bring the
|
|
file system and MDS daemons down, use the ``fs fail`` command:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs fail <fs_name>
|
|
|
|
This command sets a file system flag to prevent standbys from
|
|
activating on the file system (the ``joinable`` flag).
|
|
|
|
This process can also be done manually by doing the following:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs set <fs_name> joinable false
|
|
|
|
Then the operator can fail all of the ranks which causes the MDS daemons to
|
|
respawn as standbys. The file system will be left in a degraded state.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
# For all ranks, 0-N:
|
|
mds fail <fs_name>:<n>
|
|
|
|
Once all ranks are inactive, the file system may also be deleted or left in
|
|
this state for other purposes (perhaps disaster recovery).
|
|
|
|
To bring the cluster back up, simply set the joinable flag:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs set <fs_name> joinable true
|
|
|
|
|
|
Daemons
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Most commands manipulating MDSs take a ``<role>`` argument which can take one
|
|
of three forms:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
<fs_name>:<rank>
|
|
<fs_id>:<rank>
|
|
<rank>
|
|
|
|
Commands to manipulate MDS daemons:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
mds fail <gid/name/role>
|
|
|
|
Mark an MDS daemon as failed. This is equivalent to what the cluster
|
|
would do if an MDS daemon had failed to send a message to the mon
|
|
for ``mds_beacon_grace`` second. If the daemon was active and a suitable
|
|
standby is available, using ``mds fail`` will force a failover to the standby.
|
|
|
|
If the MDS daemon was in reality still running, then using ``mds fail``
|
|
will cause the daemon to restart. If it was active and a standby was
|
|
available, then the "failed" daemon will return as a standby.
|
|
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
tell mds.<daemon name> command ...
|
|
|
|
Send a command to the MDS daemon(s). Use ``mds.*`` to send a command to all
|
|
daemons. Use ``ceph tell mds.* help`` to learn available commands.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
mds metadata <gid/name/role>
|
|
|
|
Get metadata about the given MDS known to the Monitors.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
mds repaired <role>
|
|
|
|
Mark the file system rank as repaired. Unlike the name suggests, this command
|
|
does not change a MDS; it manipulates the file system rank which has been
|
|
marked damaged.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Minimum Client Version
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
It is sometimes desirable to set the minimum version of Ceph that a client must be
|
|
running to connect to a CephFS cluster. Older clients may sometimes still be
|
|
running with bugs that can cause locking issues between clients (due to
|
|
capability release). CephFS provides a mechanism to set the minimum
|
|
client version:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs set <fs name> min_compat_client <release>
|
|
|
|
For example, to only allow Nautilus clients, use:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs set cephfs min_compat_client nautilus
|
|
|
|
Clients running an older version will be automatically evicted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Global settings
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs flag set <flag name> <flag val> [<confirmation string>]
|
|
|
|
Sets a global CephFS flag (i.e. not specific to a particular file system).
|
|
Currently, the only flag setting is 'enable_multiple' which allows having
|
|
multiple CephFS file systems.
|
|
|
|
Some flags require you to confirm your intentions with "--yes-i-really-mean-it"
|
|
or a similar string they will prompt you with. Consider these actions carefully
|
|
before proceeding; they are placed on especially dangerous activities.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Advanced
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
These commands are not required in normal operation, and exist
|
|
for use in exceptional circumstances. Incorrect use of these
|
|
commands may cause serious problems, such as an inaccessible
|
|
file system.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
mds compat rm_compat
|
|
|
|
Removes an compatibility feature flag.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
mds compat rm_incompat
|
|
|
|
Removes an incompatibility feature flag.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
mds compat show
|
|
|
|
Show MDS compatibility flags.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
mds rmfailed
|
|
|
|
This removes a rank from the failed set.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
fs reset <file system name>
|
|
|
|
This command resets the file system state to defaults, except for the name and
|
|
pools. Non-zero ranks are saved in the stopped set.
|
