Chapter 10. Ceph File System snapshot scheduling


As a storage administrator, you can take a point-in-time snapshot of a Ceph File System (CephFS) directory. CephFS snapshots are asynchronous, and you can choose which directory snapshots are created in.

Prerequisites

  • A running, and healthy Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
  • Deployment of a Ceph File System.

10.1. Ceph File System snapshot schedules

A Ceph File System (CephFS) can schedule snapshots of a file system directory. The scheduling of snapshots is managed by the Ceph Manager, and relies on Python Timers. The snapshot schedule data is stored as an object in the CephFS metadata pool, and at runtime, all the schedule data lives in a serialized SQLite database.

Important

The scheduler is precisely based on the specified time to keep snapshots apart when a storage cluster is under normal load. When the Ceph Manager is under a heavy load, it’s possible that a snapshot might not get scheduled right away, resulting in a slightly delayed snapshot. If this happens, then the next scheduled snapshot acts as if there was no delay. Scheduled snapshots that are delayed do not cause drift in the overall schedule.

Usage

Scheduling snapshots for a Ceph File System (CephFS) is managed by the snap_schedule Ceph Manager module. This module provides an interface to add, query, and delete snapshot schedules, and to manage the retention policies. This module also implements the ceph fs snap-schedule command, with several subcommands to manage schedules, and retention policies. All of the subcommands take the CephFS volume path and subvolume path arguments to specify the file system path when using multiple Ceph File Systems. Not specifying the CephFS volume path, the argument defaults to the first file system listed in the fs_map, and not specifying the subvolume path argument defaults to nothing.

Snapshot schedules are identified by the file system path, the repeat interval, and the start time. The repeat interval defines the time between two subsequent snapshots. The interval format is a number plus a time designator: h(our), d(ay), or w(eek). For example, having an interval of 4h, means one snapshot every four hours. The start time is a string value in the ISO format, %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S, and if not specified, the start time uses a default value of last midnight. For example, you schedule a snapshot at 14:45, using the default start time value, with a repeat interval of 1h, the first snapshot will be taken at 15:00.

Retention policies are identified by the file system path, and the retention policy specifications. Defining a retention policy consist of either a number plus a time designator or a concatenated pairs in the format of COUNT TIME_PERIOD. The policy ensures a number of snapshots are kept, and the snapshots are at least for a specified time period apart. The time period designators are: h(our), d(ay), w(eek), m(onth), y(ear), and n. The n time period designator is a special modifier, which means keep the last number of snapshots regardless of timing. For example, 4d means keeping four snapshots that are at least one day, or longer apart from each other.

10.2. Adding a snapshot schedule for a Ceph File System

Add a snapshot schedule for a CephFS path that does not exist yet. You can create one or more schedules for a single path. Schedules are considered different, if their repeat interval and start times are different.

A CephFS path can only have one retention policy, but a retention policy can have multiple count-time period pairs.

Note

Once the scheduler module is enabled, running the ceph fs snap-schedule command displays the available subcommands and their usage format.

Prerequisites

  • A running, and healthy Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
  • Deployment of a Ceph File System.
  • Root-level access to a Ceph Manager and Metadata Server (MDS) nodes.
  • Enable CephFS snapshots on the file system.

Procedure

  1. Log into the Cephadm shell on a Ceph Manager node:

    Example

    [root@host01 ~]# cephadm shell

  2. Enable the snap_schedule module:

    Example

    [ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph mgr module enable snap_schedule

  3. Log into the client node:

    Example

    [root@host02 ~]# cephadm shell

  4. Add a new schedule for a Ceph File System:

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule add FILE_SYSTEM_VOLUME_PATH REPEAT_INTERVAL [START_TIME] --fs CEPH_FILE_SYSTEM_NAME

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule add /cephfs_kernelf739cwtus2/pmo9axbwsi 1h 2022-06-27T21:50:00 --fs mycephfs

    Note

    START_TIME is represented in ISO 8601 format.

    This example creates a snapshot schedule for the path /cephfs within the filesystem mycephfs, snapshotting every hour, and starts on 27 June 2022 9:50 PM.

  5. Add a new retention policy for snapshots of a CephFS volume path:

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule retention add FILE_SYSTEM_VOLUME_PATH [COUNT_TIME_PERIOD_PAIR] TIME_PERIOD COUNT

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention add /cephfs h 14 1
    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention add /cephfs d 4 2
    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention add /cephfs 14h4w 3

    1
    This example keeps 14 snapshots at least one hour apart.
    2
    This example keeps 4 snapshots at least one day apart.
    3
    This example keeps 14 hourly, and 4 weekly snapshots.
  6. List the snapshot schedules to verify the new schedule is created.

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule list FILE_SYSTEM_VOLUME_PATH [--format=plain|json] [--recursive=true]

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule list /cephfs --recursive=true

    This example lists all schedules in the directory tree.

  7. Check the status of a snapshot schedule:

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule status FILE_SYSTEM_VOLUME_PATH [--format=plain|json]

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule status /cephfs --format=json

    This example displays the status of the snapshot schedule for the CephFS /cephfs path in JSON format. The default format is plain text, if not specified.

10.3. Adding a snapshot schedule for Ceph File System subvolume

To manage the retention policies for Ceph File System (CephFS) subvolume snapshots, you can have different schedules for a single path.

Schedules are considered different, if their repeat interval and start times are different.

Add a snapshot schedule for a CephFS file path that does not exist yet. A CephFS path can only have one retention policy, but a retention policy can have multiple count-time period pairs.

Note

Once the scheduler module is enabled, running the ceph fs snap-schedule command displays the available subcommands and their usage format.

Prerequisites

  • A working Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster with Ceph File System (CephFS) deployed.
  • At least read access on the Ceph Monitor.
  • Read and write capability on the Ceph Manager nodes.
  • A CephFS subvolume and subvolume group created.

You can create a snapshot schedule for:

  • A directory in a subvolume.
  • A subvolume in default group.
  • A subvolume in non-default group.

However, the commands are different.

Procedure

  • To create a snapshot schedule for a directory in the subvolume:

    1. Get the absolute path of the subvolume where directory exists:

      Syntax

      ceph fs subvolume getpath VOLUME_NAME SUBVOLUME_NAME SUBVOLUME_GROUP_NAME

      Example

      [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs subvolume getpath cephfs subvol_1 subvolgroup_1

    2. Add a snapshot schedule to a directory in the subvolume:

      Syntax

      ceph fs snap-schedule add SUBVOLUME_DIR_PATH SNAP_SCHEDULE [START_TIME] --fs CEPH_FILE_SYSTEM_NAME --subvol SUBVOLUME_NAME

      Note

      Path in snap-schedule command would be <absolute_path_of_ subvolume>/<relative_path_of_test_dir>, refer step1 for absolute_path of subvolume.

      Example

      [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule add /cephfs_kernelf739cwtus2/pmo9axbwsi 1h 2022-06-27T21:50:00 --fs cephfs --subvol subvol_1
      Schedule set for path /..

      Note

      START_TIME is represented in ISO 8601 format.

      This example creates a snapshot schedule for the subvolume path, snapshotting every hour, and starts on 27 June 2022 9:50 PM.

  • To create a snapshot schedule for a subvolume in a default group, run the following command:

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule add /.. SNAP_SCHEDULE [START_TIME] --fs CEPH_FILE_SYSTEM_NAME --subvol _SUBVOLUME_NAME

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule add - 2M --subvol sv_non_def_1

    Note

    The path must be defined and cannot be left empty.There is no dependency on path string value, you can define it as /, -` or /...

  • To create a snapshot schedule for a subvolume in a non-default group, run the following command:

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule add /.. SNAP_SCHEDULE [START_TIME] --fs CEPH_FILE_SYSTEM_NAME --subvol _SUBVOLUME_NAME --group NON_DEFAULT_SUBVOLGROUP_NAME

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule add - 2M --fs cephfs --subvol sv_non_def_1 --group svg1

    Note

    The path must be defined and cannot be left empty.There is no dependency on path string value, you can define it as /, -` or /...

10.3.1. Adding retention policy for snapshot schedules of a CephFS volume path

To define how many snapshots to retain in the volume path at any time, you must add a retention policy after you have created a snapshot schedule.

You can create retention policies for directories within a subvolume group, subvolume within the default group and to the subvolume withing a non-default group.

Prerequisites

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention add /volumes/_nogroup/subvol_1/85a615da-e8fa-46c1-afc3-0eb8ae64a954/.. h 14 1
    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention add /volumes/_nogroup/subvol_1/85a615da-e8fa-46c1-afc3-0eb8ae64a954/.. d 4 2
    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention add /volumes/_nogroup/subvol_1/85a615da-e8fa-46c1-afc3-0eb8ae64a954/.. 14h4w 3
    
    Retention added to path /volumes/_nogroup/subvol_1/85a615da-e8fa-46c1-afc3-0eb8ae64a954/..

    1
    This example keeps 14 snapshots at least one hour apart.
    2
    This example keeps 4 snapshots at least one day apart.
    3
    This example keeps 14 hourly, and 4 weekly snapshots.
  • Add a retention policy to a snapshot schedule created for a subvolume in the default group:

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule retention add / [COUNT_TIME_PERIOD_PAIR] TIME_PERIOD_COUNT --fs CEPH_FILE_SYSTEM_NAME --subvol SUBVOLUME_NAME

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention add / 5h --fs cephfs --subvol sv_sched
    Retention added to path /volumes/sv_sched/e704342a-ff07-4763-bb0b-a46d9dda6f27/..

    Important

    The path ( / ) must be defined and cannot be left empty. There is no dependency on path string value, you can define it as /, - or /…​

  • Add a retention policy to the snapshot schedule created for a subvolume group in the non-default group:

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule retention add / [COUNT_TIME_PERIOD_PAIR] TIME_PERIOD_COUNT --fs CEPH_FILE_SYSTEM_NAME --subvol SUBVOLUME_NAME --group NON_DEFAULT_SUBVOLGROUP_NAME

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 /]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention add / 5h --fs cephfs --subvol sv_sched --group subvolgroup_cg
    Retention added to path /volumes/subvolgroup_cg/sv_sched/e704342a-ff07-4763-bb0b-a54j0dda7f16/..

10.10. Removing snapshot schedule retention policy for a Ceph File System

This section provides the step to remove the retention policy of the scheduled snapshots for a Ceph File System (CephFS).

Prerequisites

  • A working Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster with a Ceph File System (CephFS) deployed.
  • At least read access on the Ceph Monitor.
  • Read and write capability on the Ceph Manager nodes.
  • Snapshot schedule created for a CephFS volume path.

Procedure

  • Remove a retention policy on a CephFS path:

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule retention remove FILE_SYSTEM_VOLUME_PATH [COUNT_TIME_PERIOD_PAIR] TIME_PERIOD COUNT

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 ~]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention remove /cephfs h 4 1
    [ceph: root@host02 ~]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention remove /cephfs 14d4w 2

    1
    This example removes 4 hourly snapshots.
    2
    This example removes 14 daily, and 4 weekly snapshots.

10.11. Removing snapshot schedule retention policy for a Ceph File System sub volume

This section provides the step to remove the retention policy of the scheduled snapshots for a Ceph File System (CephFS) sub volume.

Prerequisites

  • A working Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster with a Ceph File System (CephFS) deployed.
  • At least read access on the Ceph Monitor.
  • Read and write capability on the Ceph Manager nodes.
  • Snapshot schedule created for a CephFS sub volume path.

Procedure

  • Remove a retention policy for a directory in a CephFS subvolume:

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule retention remove SUBVOL_DIR_PATH [COUNT_TIME_PERIOD_PAIR] TIME_PERIOD COUNT

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 ~]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention remove /volumes/_nogroup/subvol_1/85a615da-e8fa-46c1-afc3-0eb8ae64a954/.. h 4 1
    [ceph: root@host02 ~]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention remove /volumes/_nogroup/subvol_1/85a615da-e8fa-46c1-afc3-0eb8ae64a954/.. 14d4w 2

    1
    This example removes 4 hourly snapshots.
    2
    This example removes 14 daily, and 4 weekly snapshots.
  • Remove a retention policy created on snapshot schedule for a subvolume in the default group:

    Syntax

    ceph fs snap-schedule retention remove / TIME_PERIOD_PAIR TIME_PERIOD COUNT --fs CEPH_FILESYSTEM_NAME --subvol SUBVOLUME_NAME

    Example

    [ceph: root@host02 ~]# ceph fs snap-schedule retention remove / 5h --fs cephfs --subvol sv_sched --group subvolgroup_cg
    Retention removed from path /volumes/subvolgroup_cg/sv_sched/e704342a-ff07-4763-bb0b-a46d9dda6f27/..
