It is either a problem with CEPH, Civetweb or something else in our configuration. But deletes in user buckets is still leaving a high number of old shadow files. Since we have millions and millions of objects, it is hard to reconcile what should and shouldnt exist.

Looking at our cluster usage, there are no troughs, it is just a rising peak. But when looking at users data usage, we can see peaks and troughs as you would expect as data is deleted and added.

Our ceph version 0.80.9

Please ideas?

Subject: Re: [ceph-users] Shadow files

Anyone got any info on this?

Is it safe to delete shadow files?

It depends. Shadow files are badly named objects that represent part
of the objects data. They are only safe to remove if you know that the
corresponding objects no longer exist.
