Chapter 5. Management of managers using the Ceph Orchestrator

As a storage administrator, you can use the Ceph Orchestrator to deploy additional manager daemons. Cephadm automatically installs a manager daemon on the bootstrap node during the bootstrapping process.

In general, you should set up a Ceph Manager on each of the hosts running the Ceph Monitor daemon to achieve same level of availability.

By default, whichever ceph-mgr instance comes up first is made active by the Ceph Monitors, and others are standby managers. There is no requirement that there should be a quorum among the ceph-mgr daemons.

If the active daemon fails to send a beacon to the monitors for more than the mon mgr beacon grace, then it is replaced by a standby.

If you want to pre-empt failover, you can explicitly mark a ceph-mgr daemon as failed with ceph mgr fail MANAGER_NAME command.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
Root-level access to all the nodes.
Hosts are added to the cluster.

5.1. Deploying the manager daemons using the Ceph Orchestrator

The Ceph Orchestrator deploys two Manager daemons by default. You can deploy additional manager daemons using the placement specification in the command line interface. To deploy a different number of Manager daemons, specify a different number. If you do not specify the hosts where the Manager daemons should be deployed, the Ceph Orchestrator randomly selects the hosts and deploys the Manager daemons to them.

Note

Ensure your deployment has at least three Ceph Managers in each deployment.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
Hosts are added to the cluster.

Procedure

Log into the Cephadm shell:
Example
```
[root@host01 ~]# cephadm shell
```
You can deploy manager daemons in two different ways:

Method 1

Deploy manager daemons using placement specification on specific set of hosts:
Note
Red Hat recommends that you use the --placement option to deploy on specific hosts.
Syntax
```
ceph orch apply mgr --placement=" HOST_NAME_1 HOST_NAME_2 HOST_NAME_3"
```
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch apply mgr --placement="host01 host02 host03"
```

Method 2

Deploy manager daemons randomly on the hosts in the storage cluster:

Syntax

ceph orch apply mgr NUMBER_OF_DAEMONS

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch apply mgr 3

Verification

List the service:
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch ls
```

List the hosts, daemons, and processes:

Syntax

ceph orch ps --daemon_type=DAEMON_NAME

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch ps --daemon_type=mgr

5.2. Removing the manager daemons using the Ceph Orchestrator

To remove the manager daemons from the host, you can just redeploy the daemons on other hosts.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
Root-level access to all the nodes.
Hosts are added to the cluster.
At least one manager daemon deployed on the hosts.

Procedure

Log into the Cephadm shell:
Example
```
[root@host01 ~]# cephadm shell
```
Run the ceph orch apply command to redeploy the required manager daemons:
Syntax
```
ceph orch apply mgr "NUMBER_OF_DAEMONS HOST_NAME_1 HOST_NAME_3"
```
If you want to remove manager daemons from host02, then you can redeploy the manager daemons on other hosts.
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch apply mgr "2 host01 host03"
```

Verification

List the hosts,daemons, and processes:

Syntax

ceph orch ps --daemon_type=DAEMON_NAME

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph orch ps --daemon_type=mgr

Additional Resources

See Deploying the manager daemons using the Ceph Orchestrator section in the Red Hat Ceph Storage Operations Guide for more information.

5.3. Using the Ceph Manager modules

Use the ceph mgr module ls command to see the available modules and the modules that are presently enabled.

Enable or disable modules with ceph mgr module enable MODULE command or ceph mgr module disable MODULE command respectively.

If a module is enabled, then the active ceph-mgr daemon loads and executes it. In the case of modules that provide a service, such as an HTTP server, the module might publish its address when it is loaded. To see the addresses of such modules, run the ceph mgr services command.

Some modules might also implement a special standby mode which runs on standby ceph-mgr daemon as well as the active daemon. This enables modules that provide services to redirect their clients to the active daemon, if the client tries to connect to a standby.

Following is an example to enable the dashboard module:

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

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph mgr module ls
MODULE
balancer              on (always on)
crash                 on (always on)
devicehealth          on (always on)
orchestrator          on (always on)
pg_autoscaler         on (always on)
progress              on (always on)
rbd_support           on (always on)

telemetry             on (always on)
volumes               on (always on)
cephadm               on
dashboard             on
iostat                on

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph mgr services
{
        "dashboard": "http://myserver.com:7789/",
        "restful": "https://myserver.com:8789/"
}

The first time the cluster starts, it uses the mgr_initial_modules setting to override which modules to enable. However, this setting is ignored through the rest of the lifetime of the cluster: only use it for bootstrapping. For example, before starting your monitor daemons for the first time, you might add a section like this to your ceph.conf file:

[mon]
    mgr initial modules = dashboard balancer

Where a module implements comment line hooks, the commands are accessible as ordinary Ceph commands and Ceph automatically incorporates module commands into the standard CLI interface and route them appropriately to the module:

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph <command | help>

You can use the following configuration parameters with the above command:

Table 5.1. Configuration parameters
Configuration	Description	Type	Default
`mgr module path`	Path to load modules from.	String	`"<library dir>/mgr"`
`mgr data`	Path to load daemon data (such as keyring)	String	`"/var/lib/ceph/mgr/$cluster-$id"`
`mgr tick period`	How many seconds between manager beacons to monitors, and other periodic checks.	Integer	`5`
`mon mgr beacon grace`	How long after last beacon should a manager be considered failed.	Integer	`30`

5.4. Using the Ceph Manager balancer module

The balancer is a module for Ceph Manager (ceph-mgr) that optimizes the placement of placement groups (PGs) across OSDs in order to achieve a balanced distribution, either automatically or in a supervised fashion.

Currently the balancer module cannot be disabled. It can only be turned off to customize the configuration.

Modes

There are currently two supported balancer modes:

crush-compat: The CRUSH compat mode uses the compat weight-set feature, introduced in Ceph Luminous, to manage an alternative set of weights for devices in the CRUSH hierarchy. The normal weights should remain set to the size of the device to reflect the target amount of data that you want to store on the device. The balancer then optimizes the weight-set values, adjusting them up or down in small increments in order to achieve a distribution that matches the target distribution as closely as possible. Because PG placement is a pseudorandom process, there is a natural amount of variation in the placement; by optimizing the weights, the balancer counter-acts that natural variation.
This mode is fully backwards compatible with older clients. When an OSDMap and CRUSH map are shared with older clients, the balancer presents the optimized weightsff as the real weights.
The primary restriction of this mode is that the balancer cannot handle multiple CRUSH hierarchies with different placement rules if the subtrees of the hierarchy share any OSDs. Because this configuration makes managing space utilization on the shared OSDs difficult, it is generally not recommended. As such, this restriction is normally not an issue.
upmap: Starting with Luminous, the OSDMap can store explicit mappings for individual OSDs as exceptions to the normal CRUSH placement calculation. These upmap entries provide fine-grained control over the PG mapping. This CRUSH mode will optimize the placement of individual PGs in order to achieve a balanced distribution. In most cases, this distribution is "perfect", with an equal number of PGs on each OSD +/-1 PG, as they might not divide evenly.
Important
To allow use of this feature, you must tell the cluster that it only needs to support luminous or later clients with the following command:
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd set-require-min-compat-client luminous
```
This command fails if any pre-luminous clients or daemons are connected to the monitors.
Due to a known issue, kernel CephFS clients report themselves as jewel clients. To work around this issue, use the --yes-i-really-mean-it flag:
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd set-require-min-compat-client luminous --yes-i-really-mean-it
```
You can check what client versions are in use with:
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph features
```

5.4.1. Balancing a Red Hat Ceph cluster using capacity balancer

Balance a Red Hat Ceph storage cluster using the capacity balancer.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.

Procedure

Check if the balancer module is enabled:

Example

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

Turn on the balancer module:
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer on
```

To change the mode use the following command. The default mode is upmap:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer mode crush-compat

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer mode upmap

Check the current status of the balancer.
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer status
```

Automatic balancing

By default, when turning on the balancer module, automatic balancing is used:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer on

You can turn off the balancer again with:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer off

This uses the crush-compat mode, which is backward compatible with older clients and makes small changes to the data distribution over time to ensure that OSDs are equally utilized.

Throttling

No adjustments are made to the PG distribution if the cluster is degraded, for example, if an OSD has failed and the system has not yet healed itself.

When the cluster is healthy, the balancer throttles its changes such that the percentage of PGs that are misplaced, or need to be moved, is below a threshold of 5% by default. This percentage can be adjusted using the target_max_misplaced_ratio setting. For example, to increase the threshold to 7%:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config-key set mgr target_max_misplaced_ratio .07

For automatic balancing:

Set the number of seconds to sleep in between runs of the automatic balancer:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/balancer/sleep_interval 60

Set the time of day to begin automatic balancing in HHMM format:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/balancer/begin_time 0000

Set the time of day to finish automatic balancing in HHMM format:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/balancer/end_time 2359

Restrict automatic balancing to this day of the week or later. Uses the same conventions as crontab, 0 is Sunday, 1 is Monday, and so on:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/balancer/begin_weekday 0

Restrict automatic balancing to this day of the week or earlier. This uses the same conventions as crontab, 0 is Sunday, 1 is Monday, and so on:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/balancer/end_weekday 6

Define the pool IDs to which the automatic balancing is limited. The default for this is an empty string, meaning all pools are balanced. The numeric pool IDs can be gotten with the ceph osd pool ls detail command:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/balancer/pool_ids 1,2,3

Supervised optimization

The balancer operation is broken into a few distinct phases:

Building a plan.
Evaluating the quality of the data distribution, either for the current PG distribution, or the PG distribution that would result after executing a plan.
Executing the plan.
- To evaluate and score the current distribution:
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer eval
```
- To evaluate the distribution for a single pool:
  Syntax
```
ceph balancer eval POOL_NAME
```
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer eval rbd
```
- To see greater detail for the evaluation:
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer eval-verbose ...
```
- To generate a plan using the currently configured mode:
  Syntax
```
ceph balancer optimize PLAN_NAME
```
  Replace PLAN_NAME with a custom plan name.
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer optimize rbd_123
```
- To see the contents of a plan:
  Syntax
```
ceph balancer show PLAN_NAME
```
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer show rbd_123
```
- To discard old plans:
  Syntax
```
ceph balancer rm PLAN_NAME
```
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer rm rbd_123
```
- To see currently recorded plans use the status command:
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer status
```
- To calculate the quality of the distribution that would result after executing a plan:
  Syntax
```
ceph balancer eval PLAN_NAME
```
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer eval rbd_123
```
- To execute the plan:
  Syntax
```
ceph balancer execute PLAN_NAME
```
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph balancer execute rbd_123
```
  Note
  Only execute the plan if it is expected to improve the distribution. After execution, the plan is discarded.

5.4.2. Balancing a Red Hat Ceph cluster using read balancer [Technology Preview]

Important

Read Balancer is a Technology Preview feature only for Red Hat Ceph Storage 7.0. Technology Preview features are not supported with Red Hat production service level agreements (SLAs), might not be functionally complete, and Red Hat does not recommend using them for production. These features provide early access to upcoming product features, enabling customers to test functionality and provide feedback during the development process. See the support scope for Red Hat Technology Preview features for more details.

If you have unbalanced primary OSDs, you can update them with an offline optimizer that is built into the osdmaptool.

Red Hat recommends that you run the capacity balancer before running the read balancer to ensure optimal results.

Follow the steps in the procedure to balance a cluster using the read balancer:

Prerequisites

A running and capacity balanced Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
Red Hat recommends that you run the capacity balancer to balance the capacity on each OSD before running the read balancer to ensure optimal results. Run the following steps to balance the capacity:
1. Get the latest copy of your osdmap.
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd  getmap -o map
```
2. Run the upmap balancer.
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ospmaptool map –upmap out.txt
```
3. The file out.txt contains the proposed solution.
  The commands in this procedure are normal Ceph CLI commands that are run to apply the changes to the cluster.
  Run the following command if there are any recommendations in the out.txt file.
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# source out.txt
```
  For information, see Balancing IBM Ceph cluster using capacity balancer

Procedure

Check the read_balance_score, available for each pool:

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd pool ls detail

If the read_balance_score is considerably above 1, your pool has unbalanced primary OSDs.

For a homogenous cluster the optimal score is [Ceil{(number of PGs/Number of OSDs)}/(number of PGs/Number of OSDs)]/[ (number of PGs/Number of OSDs)/(number of PGs/Number of OSDs)]. For example, if you have a pool with 32 PG and 10 OSDs then (number of PGs/Number of OSDs) = 32/10 = 3.2. So, the optimal score if all the devices are identical is the ceiling value of 3.2 divided by (number of PGs/Number of OSDs) that is 4/3.2 = 1.25. If you have another pool in the same system with 64 PGs the optimal score is 7/6.4 =1.09375

Example output:

$ ceph osd pool ls detail
pool 1 '.mgr' replicated size 3 min_size 1 crush_rule 0 object_hash rjenkins pg_num 1 pgp_num 1 autoscale_mode on last_change 17 flags hashpspool stripe_width 0 pg_num_max 32 pg_num_min 1 application mgr read_balance_score 3.00
pool 2 'cephfs.a.meta' replicated size 3 min_size 1 crush_rule 0 object_hash rjenkins pg_num 16 pgp_num 16 autoscale_mode on last_change 55 lfor 0/0/25 flags hashpspool stripe_width 0 pg_autoscale_bias 4 pg_num_min 16 recovery_priority 5 application cephfs read_balance_score 1.50
pool 3 'cephfs.a.data' replicated size 3 min_size 1 crush_rule 0 object_hash rjenkins pg_num 128 pgp_num 128 autoscale_mode on last_change 27 lfor 0/0/25 flags hashpspool,bulk stripe_width 0 application cephfs read_balance_score 1.31

Get the the latest copy of your osdmap:

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph osd getmap -o om

Example output:

got osdmap epoch 56

Run the optimizer:

The file out.txt contains the the proposed solution.

[ceph: root@host01 /]# osdmaptool om --read out.txt --read-pool _POOL_NAME_ [--vstart]

Example output:

$ osdmaptool om --read out.txt --read-pool cephfs.a.meta
./bin/osdmaptool: osdmap file 'om'
writing upmap command output to: out.txt
---------- BEFORE ------------
 osd.0 | primary affinity: 1 | number of prims: 4
 osd.1 | primary affinity: 1 | number of prims: 8
 osd.2 | primary affinity: 1 | number of prims: 4

read_balance_score of 'cephfs.a.meta': 1.5

---------- AFTER ------------
 osd.0 | primary affinity: 1 | number of prims: 5
 osd.1 | primary affinity: 1 | number of prims: 6
 osd.2 | primary affinity: 1 | number of prims: 5

read_balance_score of 'cephfs.a.meta': 1.13


num changes: 2

The file out.txt contains the the proposed solution.
The commands in this procedure are normal Ceph CLI commands that are run in order to apply the changes to the cluster. If you are working in a vstart cluster, you can pass the --vstart parameter so the CLI commands are formatted with the ./bin/ prefix.
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# source out.txt
```
Example output:
```
$ cat out.txt
ceph osd pg-upmap-primary 2.3 0
ceph osd pg-upmap-primary 2.4 2

$ source out.txt
change primary for pg 2.3 to osd.0
change primary for pg 2.4 to osd.2
```
Note
If you are running the command ceph osd pg-upmap-primary for the first time, you might get a warning as:
```
Error EPERM: min_compat_client luminous < reef, which is required for pg-upmap-primary. Try 'ceph osd set-require-min-compat-client reef' before using the new interface
```
In this case, run the recommended command ceph osd set-require-min-compat-client reef and adjust your cluster’s min-compact-client.

Note

Consider rechecking the scores and re-running the balancer if the number of placement groups (PGs) change or if any OSDs are added or removed from the cluster as these operations can considerably impact the read balancer effect on a pool.

5.5. Using the Ceph Manager alerts module

You can use the Ceph Manager alerts module to send simple alert messages about the Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster’s health by email.

Note

This module is not intended to be a robust monitoring solution. The fact that it is run as part of the Ceph cluster itself is fundamentally limiting in that a failure of the ceph-mgr daemon prevents alerts from being sent. This module can, however, be useful for standalone clusters that exist in environments where existing monitoring infrastructure does not exist.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
Root-level access to the Ceph Monitor node.

Procedure

Log into the Cephadm shell:
Example
```
[root@host01 ~]# cephadm shell
```

Enable the alerts module:

Example

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

Ensure the alerts module is enabled:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph mgr module ls | more
{
    "always_on_modules": [
        "balancer",
        "crash",
        "devicehealth",
        "orchestrator",
        "pg_autoscaler",
        "progress",
        "rbd_support",
        "status",
        "telemetry",
        "volumes"
    ],
    "enabled_modules": [
        "alerts",
        "cephadm",
        "dashboard",
        "iostat",
        "nfs",
        "prometheus",
        "restful"
    ]

Configure the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP):

Syntax

ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_host SMTP_SERVER
ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_destination RECEIVER_EMAIL_ADDRESS
ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_sender SENDER_EMAIL_ADDRESS

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_host smtp.example.com
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_destination example@example.com
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_sender example2@example.com

Optional: By default, the alerts module uses SSL and port 465.
Syntax
```
ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_port PORT_NUMBER
```
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_port 587
```
Do not set the smtp_ssl parameter while configuring alerts.

Authenticate to the SMTP server:

Syntax

ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_user USERNAME
ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_password PASSWORD

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_user admin1234
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_password admin1234

Optional: By default, SMTP From name is Ceph. To change that, set the smtp_from_name parameter:

Syntax

ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_from_name CLUSTER_NAME

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/smtp_from_name 'Ceph Cluster Test'

Optional: By default, the alerts module checks the storage cluster’s health every minute, and sends a message when there is a change in the cluster health status. To change the frequency, set the interval parameter:
Syntax
```
ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/interval INTERVAL
```
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/alerts/interval "5m"
```
In this example, the interval is set to 5 minutes.
Optional: Send an alert immediately:
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph alerts send
```

Additional Resources

See the Health messages of a Ceph cluster section in the Red Hat Ceph Storage Troubleshooting Guide for more information on Ceph health messages.

5.6. Using the Ceph manager crash module

Using the Ceph manager crash module, you can collect information about daemon crashdumps and store it in the Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster for further analysis.

By default, daemon crashdumps are dumped in /var/lib/ceph/crash. You can configure it with the option crash dir. Crash directories are named by time, date, and a randomly-generated UUID, and contain a metadata file meta and a recent log file, with a crash_id that is the same.

You can use ceph-crash.service to submit these crashes automatically and persist in the Ceph Monitors. The ceph-crash.service watches the crashdump directory and uploads them with ceph crash post.

The RECENT_CRASH heath message is one of the most common health messages in a Ceph cluster. This health message means that one or more Ceph daemons has crashed recently, and the crash has not yet been archived or acknowledged by the administrator. This might indicate a software bug, a hardware problem like a failing disk, or some other problem. The option mgr/crash/warn_recent_interval controls the time period of what recent means, which is two weeks by default. You can disable the warnings by running the following command:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr/crash/warn_recent_interval 0

The option mgr/crash/retain_interval controls the period for which you want to retain the crash reports before they are automatically purged. The default for this option is one year.

Prerequisites

A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.

Procedure

Ensure the crash module is enabled:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph mgr module ls | more
{
    "always_on_modules": [
        "balancer",
        "crash",
        "devicehealth",
        "orchestrator_cli",
        "progress",
        "rbd_support",
        "status",
        "volumes"
    ],
    "enabled_modules": [
        "dashboard",
        "pg_autoscaler",
        "prometheus"
    ]

Save a crash dump: The metadata file is a JSON blob stored in the crash dir as meta. You can invoke the ceph command -i - option, which reads from stdin.
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph crash post -i meta
```
List the timestamp or the UUID crash IDs for all the new and archived crash info:
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph crash ls
```
List the timestamp or the UUID crash IDs for all the new crash information:
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph crash ls-new
```
List the timestamp or the UUID crash IDs for all the new crash information:
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph crash ls-new
```

List the summary of saved crash information grouped by age:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph crash stat
8 crashes recorded
8 older than 1 days old:

5.7. Telemetry module

The telemetry module sends data about the storage cluster to help understand how Ceph is used and what problems are encountered during operations. The data is visualized on the public dashboard to view the summary statistics on how many clusters are reporting, their total capacity and OSD count, and version distribution trends.

Channels

The telemetry report is broken down into different channels, each with a different type of information. After the telemetry is enabled, you can turn on or turn off the individual channels.

The following are the four different channels:

basic - The default is on. This channel provides the basic information about the clusters, which includes the following information:
- The capacity of the cluster.
- The number of monitors, managers, OSDs, MDSs, object gateways, or other daemons.
- The software version that is currently being used.
- The number and types of RADOS pools and Ceph File Systems.
- The names of configuration options that are changed from their default (but not their values).
crash - The default is on. This channel provides information about the daemon crashes, which includes the following information:
- The type of daemon.
- The version of the daemon.
- The operating system, the OS distribution, and the kernel version.
- The stack trace that identifies where in the Ceph code the crash occurred.
device - The default is on. This channel provides information about the device metrics, which includes anonymized SMART metrics.
ident - The default is off. This channel provides the user-provided identifying information about the cluster such as cluster description, and contact email address.
perf - The default is off. This channel provides the various performance metrics of the cluster, which can be used for the following:
- Reveal overall cluster health.
- Identify workload patterns.
- Troubleshoot issues with latency, throttling, memory management, and other similar issues.
- Monitor cluster performance by daemon.

The data that is reported does not contain any sensitive data such as pool names, object names, object contents, hostnames, or device serial numbers.

It contains counters and statistics on how the cluster is deployed, Ceph version, host distribution, and other parameters that help the project to gain a better understanding of the way Ceph is used.

Data is secure and is sent to https://telemetry.ceph.com.

Enable telemetry

Before enabling channels, ensure that the telemetry is on.

Enable telemetry:
```
ceph telemetry on
```

Enable and disable channels

Enable or disable individual channels:

ceph telemetry enable channel basic
ceph telemetry enable channel crash
ceph telemetry enable channel device
ceph telemetry enable channel ident
ceph telemetry enable channel perf

ceph telemetry disable channel basic
ceph telemetry disable channel crash
ceph telemetry disable channel device
ceph telemetry disable channel ident
ceph telemetry disable channel perf

Enable or disable multiple channels:

ceph telemetry enable channel basic crash device ident perf
ceph telemetry disable channel basic crash device ident perf

Enable or disable all channels together:

ceph telemetry enable channel all
ceph telemetry disable channel all

Sample report

To review the data reported at any time, generate a sample report:
```
ceph telemetry show
```
If telemetry is off, preview the sample report:
```
ceph telemetry preview
```
It takes longer to generate a sample report for storage clusters with hundreds of OSDs or more.
To protect your privacy, device reports are generated separately, and data such as hostname and device serial number are anonymized. The device telemetry is sent to a different endpoint and does not associate the device data with a particular cluster. To see the device report, run the following command:
```
ceph telemetry show-device
```
If telemetry is off, preview the sample device report:
```
ceph telemetry preview-device
```
Get a single output of both the reports with telemetry on:
```
ceph telemetry show-all
```
Get a single output of both the reports with telemetry off:
```
ceph telemetry preview-all
```
Generate a sample report by channel:
Syntax
```
ceph telemetry show CHANNEL_NAME
```
Generate a preview of the sample report by channel:
Syntax
```
ceph telemetry preview CHANNEL_NAME
```

Collections

Collections are different aspects of data that is collected within a channel.

List the collections:
```
ceph telemetry collection ls
```
See the difference between the collections that you are enrolled in, and the new, available collections:
```
ceph telemetry diff
```

Enroll to the most recent collections:

Syntax

ceph telemetry on
ceph telemetry enable channel CHANNEL_NAME

Interval

The module compiles and sends a new report every 24 hours by default.

Adjust the interval:

Syntax

ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/interval INTERVAL

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/interval 72

In the example, the report is generated every three days (72 hours).

Status

View the current configuration:
```
ceph telemetry status
```

Manually sending telemetry

Send telemetry data on an ad hoc basis:
```
ceph telemetry send
```
If telemetry is disabled, add --license sharing-1-0 to the ceph telemetry send command.

Sending telemetry through a proxy

If the cluster cannot connect directly to the configured telemetry endpoint, you can configure a HTTP/HTTPs proxy server:

Syntax

ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/proxy PROXY_URL

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/proxy https://10.0.0.1:8080

You can include the user pass in the command:

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/proxy https://10.0.0.1:8080

Contact and description

Optional: Add a contact and description to the report:

Syntax

ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/contact '_CONTACT_NAME_'
ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/description '_DESCRIPTION_'
ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/channel_ident true

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/contact 'John Doe <john.doe@example.com>'
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/description 'My first Ceph cluster'
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/channel_ident true

If ident flag is enabled, its details are not displayed in the leaderboard.

Leaderboard

Participate in a leaderboard on the public dashboard:
Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph config set mgr mgr/telemetry/leaderboard true
```
The leaderboard displays basic information about the storage cluster. This board includes the total storage capacity and the number of OSDs.

Disable telemetry

Disable telemetry any time:
Example
```
ceph telemetry off
```
