Hello, we want to disable readproxy cache tier but before doing so we would like to make sure we won't loose data.
Is there a way to confirm that flush actually write objects to disk ? We're using ceph version 0.94.6. I tried that, with cephfs_data_ro_cache being the hot storage pool and cephfs_data being the cold storage pool # rados -p cephfs_data_ro_cache ls then choose a random object in the list : 100004d6142.00000000 Find the object on cache disk : # ceph osd map cephfs_data_ro_cache 100004d6142.00000000 osdmap e301 pool 'cephfs_data_ro_cache' (6) object '100004d6142.00000000' -> pg 6.d010000 (6.0) -> up ([4,5,8], p4) acting ([4,5,8], p4) Object is in the pg 6.0 on OSD 4, 5 and 8, I can find the file on disk. # ls -l /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-4/current/6.0_head/DIR_0/DIR_0/DIR_0/DIR_0/100004d6142.00000000__head_0D010000__6 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Apr 8 19:36 /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-4/current/6.0_head/DIR_0/DIR_0/DIR_0/DIR_0/100004d6142.00000000__head_0D010000__6 Flush the object : # rados -p cephfs_data_ro_cache cache-try-flush 100004d6142.00000000 Find the object on disk : # ceph osd map cephfs_data 100004d6142.00000000 osdmap e301 pool 'cephfs_data' (1) object '100004d6142.00000000' -> pg 1.d010000 (1.0) -> up ([1,7,2], p1) acting ([1,7,2], p1) Object is in the pg 1.0 on OSD 1, 7 and 2, I can't find the file on disk on any of the 3 OSDs # ls -l /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-1/current/1.0_head/DIR_0/DIR_0/DIR_0/DIR_0/100004d6142.* ls: cannot access /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-1/current/1.0_head/DIR_0/DIR_0/DIR_0/DIR_0/100004d6142.*: No such file or directory What am I doing wrong ? To me it seems that nothing is actually flushed to disk. Thank you, Ben.
