Placement Groups
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
A Placement Group (PG) aggregates a series of objects into a group, and maps the
|
|
group to a series of OSDs. Tracking object placement and object metadata on a
|
|
per-object basis is computationally expensive--i.e., a system with millions of
|
|
objects cannot realistically track placement on a per-object basis. Placement
|
|
groups address this barrier to performance and scalability. Additionally,
|
|
placement groups reduce the number of processes and the amount of per-object
|
|
metadata Ceph must track when storing and retrieving data.

Each placement group requires some amount of system resources:
|
|
|
|
- **Directly**: Each PG requires some amount of memory and CPU.
|
|
- **Indirectly**: The total number of PGs increases the peering count.
|
|
|
|
Increasing the number of placement groups reduces the variance in per-OSD load
|
|
across your cluster. We recommend approximately 50-100 placement groups per OSD
|
|
to balance out memory and CPU requirements and per-OSD load. For a single pool
|
|
of objects, you can use the following formula::
|
|
|
|
(OSDs * 100)
|
|
Total PGs = ------------
|
|
Replicas
|
|
|
|
When using multiple data pools for storing objects, you need to ensure that you
|
|
balance the number of placement groups per pool with the number of placement
|
|
groups per OSD so that you arrive at a reasonable total number of placement
|
|
groups that provides reasonably low variance per OSD without taxing system
|
|
resources or making the peering process too slow.

|
Set the Number of Placement Groups
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
To set the number of placement groups in a pool, you must specify the
|
|
number of placement groups at the time you create the pool.
|
|
|
|
See `Create a Pool`_ for details.
|
|
|
|
.. _Create a Pool: ../pools#createpool
|
|
|
|
Get the Number of Placement Groups
|
|
==================================
|
|
|
|
To get the number of placement groups in a pool, execute the following::
|
|
|
|
ceph osd pool get {pool-name} pg_num
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get a Cluster's PG Statistics
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
To get the statistics for the placement groups in your cluster, execute the following::
|
|
|
|
ceph pg dump [--format {format}]
|
|
|
|
Valid formats are ``plain`` (default) and ``json``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get Statistics for Stuck PGs
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
To get the statistics for all placement groups stuck in a specified state,
|
|
execute the following::
|
|
|
|
ceph pg dump_stuck inactive|unclean|stale [--format <format>] [-t|--threshold <seconds>]
|
|
|
|
**Inactive** Placement groups cannot process reads or writes because they are waiting for an OSD
|
|
with the most up-to-date data to come up and in.
|
|
|
|
**Unclean** Placement groups contain objects that are not replicated the desired number
|
|
of times. They should be recovering.
|
|
|
|
**Stale** Placement groups are in an unknown state - the OSDs that host them have not
|
|
reported to the monitor cluster in a while (configured by ``mon_osd_report_timeout``).
|
|
|
|
Valid formats are ``plain`` (default) and ``json``. The threshold defines the minimum number
|
|
of seconds the placement group is stuck before including it in the returned statistics
|
|
(default 300 seconds).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get a PG Map
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
To get the placement group map for a particular placement group, execute the following::
|
|
|
|
ceph pg map {pg-id}
|
|
|
|
For example::
|
|
|
|
ceph pg map 1.6c
|
|
|
|
Ceph will return the placement group map, the placement group, and the OSD status::
|
|
|
|
osdmap e13 pg 1.6c (1.6c) -> up [1,0] acting [1,0]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get a PGs Statistics
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
To retrieve statistics for a particular placement group, execute the following::
|
|
|
|
ceph pg {pg-id} query
|
|
|
|
|
|
Scrub a Placement Group
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
To scrub a placement group, execute the following::
|
|
|
|
ceph pg scrub {pg-id}
|
|
|
|
Ceph checks the primary and any replica nodes, generates a catalog of all objects
|
|
in the placement group and compares them to ensure that no objects are missing
|
|
or mismatched, and their contents are consistent. Assuming the replicas all
|
|
match, a final semantic sweep ensures that all of the snapshot-related object
|
|
metadata is consistent. Errors are reported via logs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Revert Lost
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
If the cluster has lost one or more objects, and you have decided to
|
|
abandon the search for the lost data, you must mark the unfound objects
|
|
as ``lost``.
|
|
|
|
If all possible locations have been queried and objects are still
|
|
lost, you may have to give up on the lost objects. This is
|
|
possible given unusual combinations of failures that allow the cluster
|
|
to learn about writes that were performed before the writes themselves
|
|
are recovered.
|
|
|
|
Currently the only supported option is "revert", which will either roll back to
|
|
a previous version of the object or (if it was a new object) forget about it
|
|
entirely. To mark the "unfound" objects as "lost", execute the following::
|
|
|
|
ceph pg {pg-id} mark_unfound_lost revert
|
|
|
|
.. important:: Use this feature with caution, because it may confuse
|
|
applications that expect the object(s) to exist.
