Description of problem: When using a load balancer in front of RGWs all healthchecks are recorded in the ops log. This is unnecessary and causes a large build up of logs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 16.2.10-94.el8cp 16.2.10-138.el8cp How reproducible: Consistently and easily. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Deploy CEPH with RGWs and set "rgw_enable_ops_log" to true 2. Configure HAProxy with RGW backends: frontend prod_rgws bind x.x.x.x:443 ssl crt /var/lib/haproxy/cert.pem http-request set-header rgwenv prod default_backend rgws_backend backend rgws_backend server rgw0 127.0.0.1:8080 weight 100 check balance static-rr option forwardfor option httpchk GET /swift/healthcheck 3. Observe logs in <zone name>.rgw.logs pool with "radosgw-admin log show --object [ object name from radosgw-admin log list]" Actual results: The healthcheck operations appearing in the ops log. Example message: { "bucket": "", "time": "2023-03-16T16:45:57.317366Z", "time_local": "2023-03-16T12:45:57.317366-0400", "remote_addr": "127.0.0.1", "user": "", "operation": "get_health_check", "uri": "GET /swift/healthcheck HTTP/1.0", "http_status": "200", "error_code": "", "bytes_sent": 0, "bytes_received": 0, "object_size": 0, "total_time": 0, "user_agent": "", "referrer": "", "trans_id": "tx0000008217415f8131a59-00641347c5-a4be9-wdc-prod", "temp_url": false } Expected results: This is expected but not desired. Ideally these healthchecks could be filtered out of the ops log prior to being stored in the log pool. Additional info: Providing a mechanism to exclude the "get_health_check" operation would prevent the ops log from growing extremely large.
