v12.1.3 Luminous (RC) released

Aug 11, 2017 TheAnalyst

This is the final release candidate for Luminous, the next long term stable release.

Ceph Luminous (v12.2.0) will be the foundation for the next long-term stable release series. There have been major changes since Kraken (v11.2.z) and Jewel (v10.2.z), and the upgrade process is non-trivial. Please read these release notes carefully.

Major Changes from Kraken ¶

General:
- Ceph now has a simple, built-in web-based dashboard for monitoring cluster status.
RADOS:
- BlueStore:
  - The new BlueStore backend for ceph-osd is now stable and the new default for newly created OSDs. BlueStore manages data stored by each OSD by directly managing the physical HDDs or SSDs without the use of an intervening file system like XFS. This provides greater performance and features. See Storage Devices and BlueStore Config Reference.
  - BlueStore supports full data and metadata checksums of all data stored by Ceph.
  - BlueStore supports inline compression using zlib, snappy, or LZ4. (Ceph also supports zstd for RGW compression but zstd is not recommended for BlueStore for performance reasons.)
- Erasure coded pools now have full support for overwrites, allowing them to be used with RBD and CephFS.
- ceph-mgr:
  - There is a new daemon, ceph-mgr, which is a required part of any Ceph deployment. Although IO can continue when ceph-mgr is down, metrics will not refresh and some metrics-related calls (e.g., ceph df) may block. We recommend deploying several instances of ceph-mgr for reliability. See the notes on Upgrading below.
  - The ceph-mgr daemon includes a REST-based management API. The API is still experimental and somewhat limited but will form the basis for API-based management of Ceph going forward.
  - ceph-mgr also includes a Prometheus exporter plugin, which can provide Ceph perfcounters to Prometheus.
  - ceph-mgr now has a Zabbix plugin. Using zabbix_sender it sends trapper events to a Zabbix server containing high-level information of the Ceph cluster. This makes it easy to monitor a Ceph cluster’s status and send out notifications in case of a malfunction.
- The overall scalability of the cluster has improved. We have successfully tested clusters with up to 10,000 OSDs.
- Each OSD can now have a device class associated with it (e.g., hdd or ssd), allowing CRUSH rules to trivially map data to a subset of devices in the system. Manually writing CRUSH rules or manual editing of the CRUSH is normally not required.
- There is also a new upmap exception mechanism that allows individual PGs to be moved around to achieve a perfect distribution (this requires luminous clients).
- Each OSD now adjusts its default configuration based on whether the backing device is an HDD or SSD. Manual tuning generally not required.
- The prototype mClock QoS queueing algorithm is now available.
- There is now a backoff mechanism that prevents OSDs from being overloaded by requests to objects or PGs that are not currently able to process IO.
- There is a simplified OSD replacement process that is more robust.
- You can query the supported features and (apparent) releases of all connected daemons and clients with ceph features.
- You can configure the oldest Ceph client version you wish to allow to connect to the cluster via ceph osd set-require-min-compat-client and Ceph will prevent you from enabling features that will break compatibility with those clients.
- Several sleep settings, include osd_recovery_sleep, osd_snap_trim_sleep, and osd_scrub_sleep have been reimplemented to work efficiently. (These are used in some cases to work around issues throttling background work.)
- The crush choose_args encoding has been changed to make it architecture-independent.
- Pools are now expected to be associated with the application using them. Upon completing the upgrade to Luminous, the cluster will attempt to associate existing pools to known applications (i.e. CephFS, RBD, and RGW). In-use pools that are not associated to an application will generate a health warning. Any unassociated pools can be manually associated using the new ceph osd pool application enable command. For more details see associate pool to application in the documentation.
- Added new commands pg force-recovery and pg-force-backfill. Use them to boost recovery or backfill priority of specified pgs, so they’re recovered/backfilled before any other. Note that these commands don’t interrupt ongoing recovery/backfill, but merely queue specified pgs before others so they’re recovered/backfilled as soon as possible. New commands pg cancel-force-recovery and pg cancel-force-backfill restore default recovery/backfill priority of previously forced pgs.
ceph-mon:
- Added new configuration “public bind addr” to support dynamic environments like Kubernetes. When set the Ceph MON daemon could bind locally to an IP address and advertise a different IP address public addr on the network.
RGW:
- RGW metadata search backed by ElasticSearch now supports end user requests service via RGW itself, and also supports custom metadata fields. A query language a set of RESTful APIs were created for users to be able to search objects by their metadata. New APIs that allow control of custom metadata fields were also added.
- RGW now supports dynamic bucket index sharding. As the number of objects in a bucket grows, RGW will automatically reshard the bucket index in response. No user intervention or bucket size capacity planning is required. This feature needs to be enabled by setting rgw dynamic resharding to true in ceph.conf
- RGW introduces server side encryption of uploaded objects with three options for the management of encryption keys: automatic encryption (only recommended for test setups), customer provided keys similar to Amazon SSE-C specification, and through the use of an external key management service (Openstack Barbican) similar to Amazon SSE-KMS specification. Encryption
- RGW now has preliminary AWS-like bucket policy API support. For now, policy is a means to express a range of new authorization concepts. In the future it will be the foundation for additional auth capabilities such as STS and group policy. Bucket Policies
- RGW has consolidated the several metadata index pools via the use of rados namespaces. Pools
- S3 Object Tagging API has been added; while APIs are supported for GET/PUT/DELETE object tags and in PUT object API, there is no support for tags on Policies & Lifecycle yet
- RGW multisite now supports for enabling or disabling sync at a bucket level.
RBD:
- RBD now has full, stable support for erasure coded pools via the new --data-pool option to rbd create.
- RBD mirroring’s rbd-mirror daemon is now highly available. We recommend deploying several instances of rbd-mirror for reliability.
- RBD mirroring’s rbd-mirror daemon should utilize unique Ceph user IDs per instance to support the new mirroring dashboard.
- The default ‘rbd’ pool is no longer created automatically during cluster creation. Additionally, the name of the default pool used by the rbd CLI when no pool is specified can be overridden via a new rbd default pool =configuration option.
- Initial support for deferred image deletion via new rbd trash CLI commands. Images, even ones actively in-use by clones, can be moved to the trash and deleted at a later time.
- New pool-level rbd mirror pool promote and rbd mirror pool demote commands to batch promote/demote all mirrored images within a pool.
- Mirroring now optionally supports a configurable replication delay via the rbd mirroring replay delay =configuration option.
- Improved discard handling when the object map feature is enabled.
- rbd CLI import and copy commands now detect sparse and preserve sparse regions.
- Images and Snapshots will now include a creation timestamp.
- Specifying user authorization capabilities for RBD clients has been simplified. The general syntax for using RBD capability profiles is “mon ‘profile rbd’ osd ‘profile rbd[-read-only][ pool={pool-name}[, ...]]’”. For more details see “User Management” in the documentation.
CephFS:
- Multiple active MDS daemons is now considered stable. The number of active MDS servers may be adjusted up or down on an active CephFS file system.
- CephFS directory fragmentation is now stable and enabled by default on new filesystems. To enable it on existing filesystems use “ceph fs set <fs_name> allow_dirfrags”. Large or very busy directories are sharded and (potentially) distributed across multiple MDS daemons automatically.
- Directory subtrees can be explicitly pinned to specific MDS daemons in cases where the automatic load balancing is not desired or effective.
- Client keys can now be created using the new ceph fs authorize command to create keys with access to the given CephFS file system and all of its data pools.
- The ‘apply’ mode of cephfs-journal-tool has been removed
- When running ‘df’ on a CephFS filesystem comprising exactly one data pool, the result now reflects the file storage space used and available in that data pool (fuse client only).
Miscellaneous:
- Release packages are now being built for Debian Stretch. Note that QA is limited to CentOS and Ubuntu (xenial and trusty). The distributions we build for now includes:
  - CentOS 7 (x86_64 and aarch64)
  - Debian 8 Jessie (x86_64)
  - Debian 9 Stretch (x86_64)
  - Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial (x86_64 and aarch64)
  - Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty (x86_64)
- A first release of Ceph for FreeBSD is available which contains a full set of features, other than Bluestore. It will run everything needed to build a storage cluster. For clients, all access methods are available, albeit CephFS is only accessible through a Fuse implementation. RBD images can be mounted on FreeBSD systems through rbd-ggate
  Ceph versions are released through the regular FreeBSD ports and packages system. The most current version is available as: net/ceph-devel. Once Luminous goes into official release, this version will be available as net/ceph. Future development releases will be available via net/ceph-devel
  More details about this port are in: README.FreeBSD
- CLI changes:
  - The ceph -s or ceph status command has a fresh look.
  - ceph mgr metadata will dump metadata associated with each mgr daemon.
  - ceph versions or ceph {osd,mds,mon,mgr} versions summarize versions of running daemons.
  - ceph {osd,mds,mon,mgr} count-metadatasimilarly tabulates any other daemon metadata visible via the ceph {osd,mds,mon,mgr} metadata commands.
  - ceph features summarizes features and releases of connected clients and daemons.
  - ceph osd require-osd-releasereplaces the old require_RELEASE_osds flags.
  - ceph osd pg-upmap, ceph osd rm-pg-upmap, ceph osd pg-upmap-items, ceph osd rm-pg-upmap-items can explicitly manage upmap items (see Using the pg-upmap).
  - ceph osd getcrushmap returns a crush map version number on stderr, and ceph osd setcrushmap [version] will only inject an updated crush map if the version matches. This allows crush maps to be updated offline and then reinjected into the cluster without fear of clobbering racing changes (e.g., by newly added osds or changes by other administrators).
  - ceph osd create has been replaced by ceph osd new. This should be hidden from most users by user-facing tools like ceph-disk.
  - ceph osd destroy will mark an OSD destroyed and remove its cephx and lockbox keys. However, the OSD id and CRUSH map entry will remain in place, allowing the id to be reused by a replacement device with minimal data rebalancing.
  - ceph osd purge will remove all traces of an OSD from the cluster, including its cephx encryption keys, dm-crypt lockbox keys, OSD id, and crush map entry.
  - ceph osd ls-treewill output a list of OSD ids under the given CRUSH name (like a host or rack name). This is useful for applying changes to entire subtrees. For example, ceph osd down `ceph osd ls-tree rack1`.
  - ceph osd {add,rm}-{noout,noin,nodown,noup} allow the noout, noin, nodown, and noup flags to be applied to specific OSDs.
  - ceph log last [n] will output the last n lines of the cluster log.
  - ceph mgr dump will dump the MgrMap, including the currently active ceph-mgr daemon and any standbys.
  - ceph mgr module ls will list active ceph-mgr modules.
  - ceph mgr module {enable,disable}will enable or disable the named mgr module. The module must be present in the configured mgr_module_path on the host(s) where ceph-mgr is running.
  - ceph osd crush swap-bucketwill swap the contents of two CRUSH buckets in the hierarchy while preserving the buckets’ ids. This allows an entire subtree of devices to be replaced (e.g., to replace an entire host of FileStore OSDs with newly-imaged BlueStore OSDs) without disrupting the distribution of data across neighboring devices.
  - ceph osd set-require-min-compat-clientconfigures the oldest client release the cluster is required to support. Other changes, like CRUSH tunables, will fail with an error if they would violate this setting. Changing this setting also fails if clients older than the specified release are currently connected to the cluster.
  - ceph config-key dump dumps config-key entries and their contents. (The existing ceph config-key list only dumps the key names, not the values.)
  - ceph config-key list is deprecated in favor of ceph config-key ls.
  - ceph config-key put is deprecated in favor of ceph config-key set.
  - ceph auth list is deprecated in favor of ceph auth ls.
  - ceph osd crush rule list is deprecated in favor of ceph osd crush rule ls.
  - ceph osd set-{full,nearfull,backfillfull}-ratio sets the cluster-wide ratio for various full thresholds (when the cluster refuses IO, when the cluster warns about being close to full, when an OSD will defer rebalancing a PG to itself, respectively).
  - ceph osd reweightn will specify the reweight values for multiple OSDs in a single command. This is equivalent to a series of ceph osd reweight commands.
  - ceph osd crush {set,rm}-device-class manage the new CRUSH device class feature. Note that manually creating or deleting a device class name is generally not necessary as it will be smart enough to be self-managed. ceph osd crush class ls and ceph osd crush class ls-osd will output all existing device classes and a list of OSD ids under the given device class respectively.
  - ceph osd crush rule create-replicated replaces the old ceph osd crush rule create-simple command to create a CRUSH rule for a replicated pool. Notably it takes a class argument for the device class the rule should target (e.g., ssd or hdd).
  - ceph mon feature ls will list monitor features recorded in the MonMap. ceph mon feature set will set an optional feature (none of these exist yet).
  - ceph tellhelp will now return a usage summary.
  - ceph fs authorize creates a new client key with caps automatically set to access the given CephFS file system.
  - The ceph health structured output (JSON or XML) no longer contains ‘timechecks’ section describing the time sync status. This information is now available via the ‘ceph time-sync-status’ command.
  - Certain extra fields in the ceph health structured output that used to appear if the mons were low on disk space (which duplicated the information in the normal health warning messages) are now gone.
  - The ceph -w output no longer contains audit log entries by default. Add a --watch-channel=audit or --watch-channel=* to see them.
  - New “ceph -w” behavior - the “ceph -w” output no longer contains I/O rates, available space, pg info, etc. because these are no longer logged to the central log (which is what ceph -w shows). The same information can be obtained by running ceph pg stat; alternatively, I/O rates per pool can be determined using ceph osd pool stats. Although these commands do not self-update like ceph -w did, they do have the ability to return formatted output by providing a --format=option.

Major Changes from Jewel ¶

RADOS:
- We now default to the AsyncMessenger (ms type = async) instead of the legacy SimpleMessenger. The most noticeable difference is that we now use a fixed sized thread pool for network connections (instead of two threads per socket with SimpleMessenger).
- Some OSD failures are now detected almost immediately, whereas previously the heartbeat timeout (which defaults to 20 seconds) had to expire. This prevents IO from blocking for an extended period for failures where the host remains up but the ceph-osd process is no longer running.
- The size of encoded OSDMaps has been reduced.
- The OSDs now quiesce scrubbing when recovery or rebalancing is in progress.
RGW:
- RGW now supports the S3 multipart object copy-part API.
- It is possible now to reshard an existing bucket offline. Offline bucket resharding currently requires that all IO (especially writes) to the specific bucket is quiesced. (For automatic online resharding, see the new feature in Luminous above.)
- RGW now supports data compression for objects.
- Civetweb version has been upgraded to 1.8
- The Swift static website API is now supported (S3 support has been added previously).
- S3 bucket lifecycle API has been added. Note that currently it only supports object expiration.
- Support for custom search filters has been added to the LDAP auth implementation.
- Support for NFS version 3 has been added to the RGW NFS gateway.
- A Python binding has been created for librgw.
RBD:
- The rbd-mirror daemon now supports replicating dynamic image feature updates and image metadata key/value pairs from the primary image to the non-primary image.
- The number of image snapshots can be optionally restricted to a configurable maximum.
- The rbd Python API now supports asynchronous IO operations.
CephFS:
- libcephfs function definitions have been changed to enable proper uid/gid control. The library version has been increased to reflect the interface change.
- Standby replay MDS daemons now consume less memory on workloads doing deletions.
- Scrub now repairs backtrace, and populates damage ls with discovered errors.
- A new pg_files subcommand to cephfs-data-scan can identify files affected by a damaged or lost RADOS PG.
- The false-positive “failing to respond to cache pressure” warnings have been fixed.

Upgrade from Jewel or Kraken ¶

Ensure that the sortbitwise flag is enabled:
# ceph osd set sortbitwise
Make sure your cluster is stable and healthy (no down or recoverying OSDs). (Optional, but recommended.)
Do not create any new erasure-code pools while upgrading the monitors.
You can monitor the progress of your upgrade at each stage with the ceph versions command, which will tell you what ceph version is running for each type of daemon.
Set the noout flag for the duration of the upgrade. (Optional but recommended.):
# ceph osd set noout
Upgrade monitors by installing the new packages and restarting the monitor daemons. Note that, unlike prior releases, the ceph-mon daemons must be upgraded first:
# systemctl restart ceph-mon.target
Verify the monitor upgrade is complete once all monitors are up by looking for the luminous feature string in the mon map. For example:
# ceph mon feature ls
should include luminous under persistent features:
on current monmap (epoch NNN) persistent: [kraken,luminous] required: [kraken,luminous]
Add or restart ceph-mgr daemons. If you are upgrading from kraken, upgrade packages and restart ceph-mgr daemons with:
# systemctl restart ceph-mgr.target
If you are upgrading from kraken, you may already have ceph-mgr daemons deployed. If not, or if you are upgrading from jewel, you can deploy new daemons with tools like ceph-deploy or ceph-ansible. For example:
# ceph-deploy mgr create HOST
Verify the ceph-mgr daemons are running by checking ceph -s:
# ceph -s
... services: mon: 3 daemons, quorum foo,bar,baz mgr: foo(active), standbys: bar, baz ...
Upgrade all OSDs by installing the new packages and restarting the ceph-osd daemons on all hosts:
# systemctl restart ceph-osd.target
You can monitor the progress of the OSD upgrades with the new ceph versions or ceph osd versions command:
# ceph osd versions { "ceph version 12.2.0 (...) luminous (stable)": 12, "ceph version 10.2.6 (...)": 3, }
Upgrade all CephFS daemons by upgrading packages and restarting daemons on all hosts:
# systemctl restart ceph-mds.target
Upgrade all radosgw daemons by upgrading packages and restarting daemons on all hosts:
# systemctl restart radosgw.target
Complete the upgrade by disallowing pre-luminous OSDs:
# ceph osd require-osd-release luminous
If you set noout at the beginning, be sure to clear it with:
# ceph osd unset noout
Verify the cluster is healthy with ceph health.

Upgrading from pre-Jewel releases (like Hammer) ¶

You must first upgrade to Jewel (10.2.z) before attempting an upgrade to Luminous.

Upgrade compatibility notes, Kraken to Luminous ¶

The configuration option osd pool erasure code stripe width has been replaced by osd pool erasure code stripe unit, and given the ability to be overridden by the erasure code profile setting stripe_unit. For more details see /rados/operations/erasure-code#erasure-code-profiles.
rbd and cephfs can use erasure coding with bluestore. This may be enabled by setting allow_ec_overwrites to true for a pool. Since this relies on bluestore’s checksumming to do deep scrubbing, enabling this on a pool stored on filestore is not allowed.
The rados df JSON output now prints numeric values as numbers instead of strings.
The mon_osd_max_op_age option has been renamed to mon_osd_warn_op_age (default: 32 seconds), to indicate we generate a warning at this age. There is also a new mon_osd_err_op_age_ratio that is a expressed as a multitple of mon_osd_warn_op_age (default: 128, for roughly 60 minutes) to control when an error is generated.
The default maximum size for a single RADOS object has been reduced from 100GB to 128MB. The 100GB limit was completely impractical in practice while the 128MB limit is a bit high but not unreasonable. If you have an application written directly to librados that is using objects larger than 128MB you may need to adjust osd_max_object_size.
The semantics of the rados ls and librados object listing operations have always been a bit confusing in that “whiteout” objects (which logically don’t exist and will return ENOENT if you try to access them) are included in the results. Previously whiteouts only occurred in cache tier pools. In luminous, logically deleted but snapshotted objects now result in a whiteout object, and as a result they will appear in rados ls results, even though trying to read such an object will result in ENOENT. The rados listsnaps operation can be used in such a case to enumerate which snapshots are present.
This may seem a bit strange, but is less strange than having a deleted-but-snapshotted object not appear at all and be completely hidden from librados’s ability to enumerate objects. Future versions of Ceph will likely include an alternative object enumeration interface that makes it more natural and efficient to enumerate all objects along with their snapshot and clone metadata.
The deprecated crush_ruleset property has finally been removed; please use crush_rule instead for the osd pool get ... and osd pool set ... commands.
The osd pool default crush replicated ruleset option has been removed and replaced by the psd pool default crush rule option. By default it is -1, which means the mon will pick the first type replicated rule in the CRUSH map for replicated pools. Erasure coded pools have rules that are automatically created for them if they are not specified at pool creation time.
We no longer test the FileStore ceph-osd backend in combination with btrfs. We recommend against using btrfs. If you are using btrfs-based OSDs and want to upgrade to luminous you will need to add the follwing to your ceph.conf:
enable experimental unrecoverable data corrupting features = btrfs
The code is mature and unlikely to change, but we are only continuing to test the Jewel stable branch against btrfs. We recommend moving these OSDs to FileStore with XFS or BlueStore.
The ruleset-* properties for the erasure code profiles have been renamed to crush-* to (1) move away from the obsolete ‘ruleset’ term and to be more clear about their purpose. There is also a new optional crush-device-class property to specify a CRUSH device class to use for the erasure coded pool. Existing erasure code profiles will be converted automatically when upgrade completes (when the ceph osd require-osd-release luminous command is run) but any provisioning tools that create erasure coded pools may need to be updated.
The structure of the XML output for osd crush tree has changed slightly to better match the osd tree output. The top level structure is now nodes instead of crush_map_roots.
When assigning a network to the public network and not to the cluster network the network specification of the public network will be used for the cluster network as well. In older versions this would lead to cluster services being bound to 0.0.0.0:, thus making the cluster service even more publicly available than the public services. When only specifying a cluster network it will still result in the public services binding to 0.0.0.0.
In previous versions, if a client sent an op to the wrong OSD, the OSD would reply with ENXIO. The rationale here is that the client or OSD is clearly buggy and we want to surface the error as clearly as possible. We now only send the ENXIO reply if the osd_enxio_on_misdirected_op option is enabled (it’s off by default). This means that a VM using librbd that previously would have gotten an EIO and gone read-only will now see a blocked/hung IO instead.
The “journaler allow split entries” config setting has been removed.
The ‘mon_warn_osd_usage_min_max_delta’ config option has been removed and the associated health warning has been disabled because it does not address clusters undergoing recovery or CRUSH rules that do not target all devices in the cluster.
librados:
- Some variants of the omap_get_keys and omap_get_vals librados functions have been deprecated in favor of omap_get_vals2 and omap_get_keys2. The new methods include an output argument indicating whether there are additional keys left to fetch. Previously this had to be inferred from the requested key count vs the number of keys returned, but this breaks with new OSD-side limits on the number of keys or bytes that can be returned by a single omap request. These limits were introduced by kraken but are effectively disabled by default (by setting a very large limit of 1 GB) because users of the newly deprecated interface cannot tell whether they should fetch more keys or not. In the case of the standalone calls in the C++ interface (IoCtx::get_omap_{keys,vals}), librados has been updated to loop on the client side to provide a correct result via multiple calls to the OSD. In the case of the methods used for building multi-operation transactions, however, client-side looping is not practical, and the methods have been deprecated. Note that use of either the IoCtx methods on older librados versions or the deprecated methods on any version of librados will lead to incomplete results if/when the new OSD limits are enabled.
- The original librados rados_objects_list_open (C) and objects_begin (C++) object listing API, deprecated in Hammer, has finally been removed. Users of this interface must update their software to use either the rados_nobjects_list_open (C) and nobjects_begin (C++) API or the new rados_object_list_begin (C) and object_list_begin (C++) API before updating the client-side librados library to Luminous.
  Object enumeration (via any API) with the latest librados version and pre-Hammer OSDs is no longer supported. Note that no in-tree Ceph services rely on object enumeration via the deprecated APIs, so only external librados users might be affected.
  The newest (and recommended) rados_object_list_begin (C) and object_list_begin (C++) API is only usable on clusters with the SORTBITWISE flag enabled (Jewel and later). (Note that this flag is required to be set before upgrading beyond Jewel.)
CephFS:
- When configuring ceph-fuse mounts in /etc/fstab, a new syntax is available that uses “ceph.=” in the options column, instead of putting configuration in the device column. The old style syntax still works. See the documentation page “Mount CephFS in your file systems table” for details.
- CephFS clients without the ‘p’ flag in their authentication capability string will no longer be able to set quotas or any layout fields. This flag previously only restricted modification of the pool and namespace fields in layouts.
- CephFS will generate a health warning if you have fewer standby daemons than it thinks you wanted. By default this will be 1 if you ever had a standby, and 0 if you did not. You can customize this using ceph fs setstandby_count_wanted. Setting it to zero will effectively disable the health check.
- The “ceph mds tell ...” command has been removed. It is superceded by “ceph tell mds....”
