Hi Alex
Thanks for your answer. That was very helpful. I apparently completely
misread the script.

Hi Marcel - I'm not sure if this message will make it to the list as
well (seems my emails there are blackholed for some reason), but we
just did this procedure. What happens in the script (which does need
some tweaking to work) is, or is supposed to be, that
- the monstore is created on the first OSD host against all local
OSDs, then copied back to the local machine
- that monstore is then copied to the next OSD host, where the
procedure is repeated, then copied back
- repeat for all OSD hosts
The thing preventing overwrites is that the monstore is copied back
and forth before and after each host's set of OSDs are added.
Happy to write a less-hasty reply with more detail (and hopefully the
actual script I ended up using, though I'm not sure that host survived
the Cephpocalypse we just had) if that would be helpful?
Good luck,
-Alex

Hi
A while ago we were close to loosing our monitors (disk free space
got
thin after a 3 hour network outage) so I am trying to get some grip
on
restoring the mon db's from osds with ceph-objectstore-tool
according to
this page
https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/rados/troubleshooting/troubleshooting-mon/#recovery-using-osds.
Just in case.
However the first lines of the shellscript do not seem to be
accurate.
I've written some comments inbetween to clarify
<snip>
ms=/root/mon-store
mkdir $ms
# collect the cluster map from stopped OSDs
for host in $hosts; do
rsync -avz $ms/. user@$host:$ms.remote
# my comment1: this makes the previous rsync fail in the next
loop.
easy to fix
rm -rf $ms
ssh user@$host <<EOF
for osd in /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-*; do
ceph-objectstore-tool --data-path \$osd --no-mon-config --op
update-mon-db --mon-store-path $ms.remote
done
EOF
# my comment2
# since previous commands produces filenames that are mostly the
same
for each host, this sync will overwrite all data
# with the data of the last host. Not sure how to fix in order
to
rebuild a new mon database from all host data
rsync -avz user@$host:$ms.remote/. $ms
done
</snip>
Does anyone have an idea how this is supposed to work?
Marcel
