[lustre-discuss] mdt: unhealthy - healthy

[Thomas Roth]

Hi all,

this morning one of our MDT went 'unhealthy',

> Jul 26 10:15:13 lxmds20 kernel: LustreError: 9510:0:(service.c:3285:ptlrpc_svcpt_health_check())
mdt: unhealthy - request has been waiting 1017s
...

However, somewhat later,

> lxmds20:~# cat /sys/fs/lustre/health_check
healthy

and all Lustre operations seem to be good, too.


Used to be that if an MDT went unhealthy, all of Lustre was in kind of an 'undefined' state, you had
to reboot and fs-check.
This is now Lustre 2.10.6 - can it heal itself reliably, or should we still take some action?

Regards
Thomas
