.. _cephfs-top:
==================
CephFS Top Utility
==================
CephFS provides `top(1)` like utility to display various Ceph Filesystem metrics
in realtime. `cephfs-top` is a curses based python script which makes use of `stats`
plugin in Ceph Manager to fetch (and display) metrics.
Manager Plugin
==============
Ceph Filesystem clients periodically forward various metrics to Ceph Metadata Servers (MDS)
which in turn get forwarded to Ceph Manager by MDS rank zero. Each active MDS forward its
respective set of metrics to MDS rank zero. Metrics are aggergated and forwarded to Ceph
Manager.
Metrics are divided into two categories - global and per-mds. Global metrics represent
set of metrics for the filesystem as a whole (e.g., client read latency) whereas per-mds
metrics are for a particular MDS rank (e.g., number of subtrees handled by an MDS).
.. note:: Currently, only global metrics are tracked.
`stats` plugin is disabled by default and should be enabled via::
$ ceph mgr module enable stats
Once enabled, Ceph Filesystem metrics can be fetched via::
$ ceph fs perf stats
The output format is JSON and contains fields as follows:
- `version`: Version of stats output
- `global_counters`: List of global performance metrics
- `counters`: List of per-mds performance metrics
- `client_metadata`: Ceph Filesystem client metadata
- `global_metrics`: Global performance counters
- `metrics`: Per-MDS performance counters (currently, empty) and delayed ranks
.. note:: `delayed_ranks` is the set of active MDS ranks that are reporting stale metrics.
This can happen in cases such as (temporary) network issue between MDS rank zero
and other active MDSs.
Metrics can be fetched for a partcilar client and/or for a set of active MDSs. To fetch metrics
for a particular client (e.g., for client-id: 1234)::
$ ceph fs perf stats --client_id=1234
To fetch metrics only for a subset of active MDSs (e.g., MDS rank 1 and 2)::
$ ceph fs perf stats --mds_rank=1,2
`cephfs-top`
============
`cephfs-top` utility relies on `stats` plugin to fetch performance metrics and display in
`top(1)` like format. `cephfs-top` is available as part of `cephfs-top` package.
By default, `cephfs-top` uses `client.fstop` user to connect to a Ceph cluster::
$ ceph auth get-or-create client.fstop mon 'allow r' mds 'allow r' osd 'allow r' mgr 'allow r'
$ cephfs-top
Command-Line Options
--------------------
To use a non-default user (other than `client.fstop`) use::
$ cephfs-top --id <name>
By default, `cephfs-top` connects to cluster name `ceph`. To use a non-default cluster name::
$ cephfs-top --cluster <cluster>
`cephfs-top` refreshes stats every second by default. To chose a different refresh interval use::
$ cephfs-top -d <seconds>
Interval should be greater or equal to 0.5 second. Fractional seconds are honoured.
Interactive Commands
--------------------
1. m : Filesystem selection
Displays a menu of filesystems for selection.
2. q : Quit
Exit the utility if you are at the home screen (All Filesystem Info),
otherwise escape back to the home screen.
The metrics display can be scrolled using the Arrow Keys, PgUp/PgDn, Home/End and mouse.
