Generally, +this is easy to work out. If the kernel client broke directly, there +will be output in dmesg. Collect it and any appropriate kernel state. If +the problem is with the MDS, there will be hung requests that the client +is waiting on. Look in ``/sys/kernel/debug/ceph/*/`` and cat the ``mdsc`` file to get a listing of requests in progress. If one of them remains there, the +MDS has probably "forgotten" it. +We can get hints about what's going on by dumping the MDS cache: +ceph mds tell 0 dumpcache /tmp/dump.txt + +And if high logging levels are set on the MDS, that will almost certainly +hold the information we need to diagnose and solve the issue. + +You can also enable dynamic debug against the cephfs module. + +See: +https://github.com/ceph/ceph/blob/master/src/script/kcon_all.sh |
