Rook (Ceph Operator) OSD_DISK_FAILURE

Disk failure affecting OSD operation.

Understanding Rook (Ceph Operator)

Rook is an open-source cloud-native storage orchestrator for Kubernetes. It leverages the power of Ceph, a highly scalable distributed storage system, to provide block, file, and object storage services to Kubernetes clusters. Rook simplifies the deployment and management of Ceph clusters by automating tasks such as provisioning, scaling, and recovery.

Identifying the Symptom: OSD_DISK_FAILURE

When operating a Rook Ceph cluster, you might encounter the OSD_DISK_FAILURE error. This issue manifests when one or more OSDs (Object Storage Daemons) are unable to function correctly due to underlying disk failures. Symptoms include degraded performance, increased latency, and potential data unavailability.

Common Observations

  • OSDs marked as down or out in the Ceph status.
  • Increased I/O errors in the logs.
  • Cluster health warnings related to OSDs.

Exploring the Issue: OSD_DISK_FAILURE

The OSD_DISK_FAILURE error indicates that a disk failure has impacted the operation of an OSD. OSDs are crucial components of a Ceph cluster, responsible for storing data, handling replication, and recovery. A disk failure can lead to data loss if not addressed promptly.

Root Cause Analysis

The root cause of this issue is typically a physical disk failure. This can occur due to hardware malfunctions, wear and tear, or environmental factors. It's essential to identify and replace the faulty disk to restore the cluster's health and performance.

Steps to Resolve OSD_DISK_FAILURE

To resolve the OSD_DISK_FAILURE error, follow these steps:

Step 1: Identify the Faulty Disk

  1. Check the Ceph cluster status using the command: ceph -s Look for any OSDs marked as down or out.
  2. Use the following command to get detailed information about the OSDs: ceph osd tree Identify the OSDs that are down and note their IDs.

Step 2: Replace the Faulty Disk

  1. Physically replace the faulty disk in the server or node.
  2. Recreate the OSD using the Rook toolbox. First, remove the failed OSD: ceph osd out <osd-id> Then, remove the OSD from the cluster: ceph osd rm <osd-id>
  3. Re-add the OSD to the cluster using Rook's orchestration capabilities. Refer to the Rook Ceph OSD Management documentation for detailed steps.

Step 3: Verify Cluster Health

  1. Once the disk is replaced and the OSD is re-added, check the cluster health: ceph -s Ensure all OSDs are up and in.
  2. Monitor the cluster for data rebalancing and recovery processes.

Conclusion

Addressing the OSD_DISK_FAILURE error promptly is crucial to maintaining the integrity and performance of your Rook Ceph cluster. By following the steps outlined above, you can effectively replace faulty disks and restore your cluster to optimal health. For more detailed guidance, visit the Rook Documentation.
