Fixed In Version: ceph-16.2.0-139.el8cp
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
.Deletion of data is allowed when the storage cluster is full Previously, when the storage cluster was full, the Ceph Manager hung on checking pool permissions while reading the configuration file. The Ceph Metadata Server (MDS) did not allow write operations to occur when the Ceph OSD was full, resulting in an `ENOSPACE` error. When the storage cluster hit full ratio, users could not delete data to free space using the Ceph Manager volume plugin. With this release, the new FULL capability is introduced. With the FULL capability, the Ceph Manager bypasses the Ceph OSD full check. The `client_check_pool_permission` option is disabled by default whereas, in previous releases, it was enabled. With the Ceph Manager having FULL capabilities, the MDS no longer blocks Ceph Manager calls. This results in allowing the Ceph Manager to free up space by deleting subvolumes and snapshots when a storage cluster is full.

Description of problem:
When the cluster hits full ratio the user cannot delete data to free space.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Fill the cluster with data till getting the full alert
2. Try to delete data to free space
3.

Actual results:
Error

Expected results:
Successfully delete data and get the cluster to be writable

Additional info:
For OCS we are interested in RBD and CephFS volume deletion.
The MGR need to add the "FULL_TRY" flag in the MGR's "rbd_support" tasks for image deletion. Similar change for CephFS
