Hi guys,
Someone I worked with today pointed me to a quick and easy way to
bring down an entire cluster, by making all mons kill themselves in
mass suicide:
ceph osd setmaxosd 2147483647
2012-07-05 16:29:41.893862 b5962b70 0 monclient: hunting for new mon
I don't know what the actual threshold is, but setting your maxosd to
any sufficiently big number should do it. I had hoped 2^31-1 would be
fine, but evidently it's not.
This is what's in the mon log -- the first line is obviously only on
the leader at the time of the command, the others are on all mons.

>From src/mon/OSDMonitor.cc:
int newmax = atoi(m->cmd[2].c_str());
if (newmax < osdmap.crush->get_max_devices()) {
err = -ERANGE;
ss << "cannot set max_osd to " << newmax << " which is < crush
max_devices "
<< osdmap.crush->get_max_devices();
goto out;
}
I think that counts as unchecked user input, or has cmd[2] been
sanitized at any time before it gets here?
Also, is there a way to recover from this, short of reinitializing all mons?
Cheers,
Florian
