Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
.Load on MDS daemons is not always balanced fairly or evenly in multiple active MDS configurations Previously, in certain cases, the MDS balancers offloaded too much metadata to another active daemon, or none at all. As of this update to {product} this is no longer an issue as several balancer fixes and optimization have been made which address the issue.

Description Ramakrishnan Periyasamy 2017-09-21 20:36:09 UTC
Description of problem:
MDS Default load balancing is not dividing the load among 2 active MDS incase of single directory with multiple subdirectories and files.

Due to this observed "MDS_SLOW_REQUEST" messages in "ceph -w" console output for mds.1, also Observed too many object requests and inodes associated to mds.1 in --admin-daemon commands.

Scenario:
Create a parent directory dir1, Created 3 sub directories dir1, dir2 and dir2

Started IO's from 3 different(2 kernel and 1 Fuse) clients on above 3 directories. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ceph version 12.2.0-1.el7cp (b661348f156f148d764b998b65b90451f096cb27) luminous (rc)

How reproducible:
5/5

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure CephFS mount and configure atleast 3 clients
2. Create a directory and 3 subdirectories.
3. Ran IO's from 3 clients in above created directories.

Actual results:
NA

Expected results:
NA

Additional info:
This behaviour was different when 50000 directories and 1 million files created directly on cephfs mount.

almost the no of inodes were equal among the active mds.

pinning details:

There is no pinning done.

[ubuntu@host058 ~]$ sudo ceph --admin-daemon /var/run/ceph/qetest-mds.host058.asok  get subtrees | grep \"export_pin\"\:\ 1 | wc -l | uniq
2

these 2 pins are for following stray paths

"path": "~mds0/stray5/100000003ec"
"path": "~mds0/stray3/1000001d849"

[ubuntu@host058 ~]$ sudo ceph --admin-daemon /var/run/ceph/qetest-mds.host058.asok  get subtrees | grep \"export_pin\"\:\ 0 | wc -l | uniq
0

[ubuntu@host058 ~]$ sudo ceph --admin-daemon /var/run/ceph/qetest-mds.host058.asok  get subtrees | grep \"export_pin\"\:\ -1 | wc -l | uniq
20
