Chapter 4. Override Ceph behavior
As a storage administrator, you need to understand how to use overrides for the Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster to change Ceph options during runtime.
4.1. Prerequisites
- A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
4.2. Setting and unsetting Ceph override options
You can set and unset Ceph options to override Ceph’s default behavior.
Prerequisites
- A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
- Root-level access to the node.
Procedure
To override Ceph’s default behavior, use the
ceph osd set
command and the behavior you wish to override:ceph osd set FLAG
Once you set the behavior,
ceph health
will reflect the override(s) that you have set for the cluster.To cease overriding Ceph’s default behavior, use the
ceph osd unset
command and the override you wish to cease.ceph osd unset FLAG

4.3. Ceph override use cases
-
noin
: Commonly used withnoout
to address flapping OSDs. -
noout
: If themon osd report timeout
is exceeded and an OSD has not reported to the monitor, the OSD will get markedout
. If this happens erroneously, you can setnoout
to prevent the OSD(s) from getting markedout
while you troubleshoot the issue. -
noup
: Commonly used withnodown
to address flapping OSDs. -
nodown
: Networking issues may interrupt Ceph 'heartbeat' processes, and an OSD may beup
but still get marked down. You can setnodown
to prevent OSDs from getting marked down while troubleshooting the issue. full
: If a cluster is reaching itsfull_ratio
, you can pre-emptively set the cluster tofull
and expand capacity.NoteSetting the cluster to
full
will prevent write operations.-
pause
: If you need to troubleshoot a running Ceph cluster without clients reading and writing data, you can set the cluster topause
to prevent client operations. -
nobackfill
: If you need to take an OSD or nodedown
temporarily, for example, upgrading daemons, you can setnobackfill
so that Ceph will not backfill while the OSDs isdown
. -
norecover
: If you need to replace an OSD disk and don’t want the PGs to recover to another OSD while you are hotswapping disks, you can setnorecover
to prevent the other OSDs from copying a new set of PGs to other OSDs. -
noscrub
andnodeep-scrubb
: If you want to prevent scrubbing for example, to reduce overhead during high loads, recovery, backfilling, and rebalancing you can setnoscrub
and/ornodeep-scrub
to prevent the cluster from scrubbing OSDs. -
notieragent
: If you want to stop the tier agent process from finding cold objects to flush to the backing storage tier, you may setnotieragent
.
