Description Giulio Fidente 2020-09-18 09:45:54 UTC

Due to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1875777 , we need to implement a temporary workaround in the procedure which performs migration of Ceph OSDs from filestore to bluestore.

Specifically, for those customers which didn't set "osd_objectstore" explicitly when deploying OSP13/RHCS3 and which, after the upgrade to RHCS4, want to migrate the OSDs from filestore to bluestore, there are some additional steps to perform.

These should roughly be:

1) create an environment file (eg. pretend_filestore.yaml) with the following:

parameter_defaults:
  CephAnsibleExtraConfig:
    osd_objectstore: filestore

or edit in any pre-existing custom environment file applying specific variables via CephAnsibleExtraConfig, appending `osd_objectstore: filestore` into it

2) perform a stack update using "overcloud deploy --stack-only -e pretend_filestore.yaml" (append also with -e any environment file which was passed on converge step during ffu)

3) proceed with the filestore to bluestore migration using the existing documentation

Closing this doc BZ because the workaround will be documented as part of a release note connected to the following known issue BZ: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1733577

Hi Giulio, thanks for this BZ. That's good news that there will be a fix. No, I can track with this BZ. Just to clarify, the fix will need to be in the 16.1.5 and later docs?
Thanks again,
Naomi

yes, this is because the fix in ceph-ansible (currently expected for release with the 4.1z2 update, in march) will be effective for every OSP16 minor released *after* that date

Comment 6 ndeevy 2021-02-19 13:45:48 UTC

Hi Giulio,
Yes we can target for 16.1.4. Just to clarify the changes needed now:

1. Remove the warning from FFU [1] that says:

Note
    There is currently a known issue that causes the migration of Ceph OSDs from FileStore to BlueStore to fail in use cases where the osd_objectstore parameter is not set or is set to bluestore in deployment templates. For more information, see BZ#1733577 in the Red Hat OpenStack Platform 16.1 Release Notes. 

2. And the Known Issue that talks about BZ#1733577 in the release notes should not be reproduced for the 16.1.4 Notes.

Is that correct?
