Very strange. I'll see if I can reproduce on a giant release. If you run 'rbd info --pool RBD-01 CEPH_006__000001__NA__0003__ESX__ALL_EXT', what is the output? I want to use the same settings as your image.
Does 'rbd diff' work against the image (i.e. more than a few kilobyes of deltas)? Also, would it be possible for you to create a new, test image in the same pool, snapshot it, use 'rbd bench-write' to generate some data, and then verify if export-diff is properly working against the new image? -- Jason Dillaman Red Hat dilla...@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ultral" <ultral...@gmail.com> To: "Jason Dillaman" <dilla...@redhat.com> Cc: "ceph-users" <ceph-us...@ceph.com> Sent: Sunday, May 10, 2015 5:40:00 AM Subject: Re: [ceph-users] export-diff exported only 4kb instead of 200-600gb Hello Jason, > but to me it sounds like you are saying that there are no/minimal deltas > between snapshots move2db24-20150428 and 2015-05-05 (both from the > export-diff and from your clone). yep, it correct. difference between snapshots move2db24-20150428 & 2015-05-05 is too small 4kb instead of 200-800gb.. > Are you certain that you made 700-800GBs of changes between the two snapshots > and no trim operations released your changes back? VM locate on the image, it is intranet for 1000 peoples. it has web+mysql+sphinx+backups vast majority of changed data are backups(2 day rotation) inside VM on the image. it made about 200gb of data each day also we store users uploads (0.3-3gb per day) and databases (about 30gb ) so i suppose that changes should be more than 4kb > If you diff from move2db24-20150428 to HEAD, do you see all your changes? rbd export-diff --cluster cluster1 --pool RBD-01 CEPH_006__000001__NA__0003__ESX__ALL_EXT --from-snap move2db24-20150428 -|wc -c 6786 Exporting image: 100% complete...done. it is too small.. i've added some video files to the VM, however it shows only 6kb 2015-05-08 18:43 GMT+05:00 Jason Dillaman < dilla...@redhat.com > : There is probably something that I am not understanding, but to me it sounds like you are saying that there are no/minimal deltas between snapshots move2db24-20150428 and 2015-05-05 (both from the export-diff and from your clone).
