GitHub user PPisz added a comment to the discussion: ceph tentacle and libvirt

Hi dahn!

 

It's okay, we managed to work around it. The cause of the crash was NFS 
(restart during a Ceph update). Libvirt was waiting for NFS and endlessly 
trying to mount secondary storage. This was causing the VMs to freeze because 
they had NFS-based config drives mounted. Mitigation was simple on one hand; 
restarting the host or ejecting the VM's config drive from the server was 
enough. However, the problem was serious because it affected the entire 
environment in an instant, halting 70% of virtualization. For now, we've 
switched from secondary storage to S3 and removed NFS from the environment as 
much as possible.

 

Best regards,

Piotr
