I've done that, but not much timing info in there, i.e.:
"ops": [
{
"tid": 416231,
"pg": "6.791ce4c5",
"osd": 31,
"object_id": "200.00024d0f",
"object_locator": "@6",
"target_object_id": "200.00024d0f",
"target_object_locator": "@6",
"paused": 0,
"used_replica": 0,
"precalc_pgid": 0,
"last_sent": "79790s",
"attempts": 1,
"snapid": "head",
"snap_context": "0=[]",
"mtime": "2019-03-01 16:39:29.0.41847s",
"osd_ops": [
"write 798204~6249 [fadvise_dontneed]"
]
}
The MDS_SLOW_METADATA_IO warning has been added in commit
https://github.com/ceph/ceph/commit/0f735f40315448560fde049ed3ea019a7d30d868#diff-74784f821b1aae68f768965680914268
Tracker issue: http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/24879
PR: 23022
It uses the "osd_op_complaint_time" as the "complaint_time". We have set
the osd_op_complaint_time to 5 seconds.
The tracker issue hints that slow metadata would be caused by a slow OSD
(joural writes of MDS that take too long). However, we do not see any
slow mds ops (data), nor slow ops. We've changed the parameter
"mon_osd_warn_op_age" to 5 seconds as well so slow OSD ops would be
reported as well.
I do not think our OSDs are that slow, that often (~ at least every 15
minutes we would see that warning) ... so I really wonder what's going
on.
For now we've set the osd_op_complaint_time to "30" on the MDSes and do
not see any SLOW METADATA warnings anymore.
Anyone willing to set the osd_op_complaint_time to 5 seconds to see if
those messages will start popping up? ceph tell mds.* config set
osd_op_complaint_time 5 should do the trick ... you would need to be
running 12.2.11 and /or mimic 13.2.2.
Thanks,
Stefan
P.s. kudos to Wido den Hollander for helping us debug this.
