Two is a strange choice for number of monitors; you really want an odd number. With two, if either one fails (or you have a network fault),
the cluster is dead because there's no majority.

That said, we certainly don't expect monitors to die when the network fault goes away. Searching the bug database reveals http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/4175, but this should have been included in v0.60.

I'll ask Joao to have a look.  Joao, can you have a look?  :)

I'm doing a test of Ceph in two colo facilities.  Since it's just a
test, I only have 2 VMs running, one in each colo.  Both VMs are runing
mon, mds, a single osd, and the RADOS gw.  Cephx is disabled.  I'm
testing if the latency between the two facilities (~20ms) is low enough
that I can run a single Ceph cluster in both locations.  If it doesn't
work out, I'll run two independent Ceph clusters with manual replication.

This weekend, the connection between the two locations was degraded.
The link had 37% packet loss, for less than a minute. When the link
returned to normal, the re-elected mon leader crashed.

Is this a real bug, or did this happen because I'm only running 2
nodes?  I'm trying to avoid bringing more nodes into this test. My VM
infrastructure is pretty weak, and I'm afraid that more nodes would
introduce more noise in the test.

I saw this happen once before (the primary colo had a UPS failure,
causing a switch reboot).  The same process crashed, with the same stack
trace.  When that happened, I ran sudo service ceph restart on the
machine with the crashed mon, and everything started up fine.  I haven't
restarted anything this time.

I tried to recreate the problem by stopping and starting the VPN between
the two locations, but that didn't trigger the crash.  I have some more
ideas on how to trigger, I'll continue trying today.

I saved the log files from both events, in case you want the --- begin
dump of recent events ---.

This looks somewhat similiar to http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/3495. The
first 6 lines of the stack trace are the same functions, but they
diverge at line 7.
