[lustre-discuss] Full OST

[Degremont, Aurelien]

Hi

It could be a bug, but most of the time, this is due to an open-unlinked file, typically a log file which is still in use and some processes keep writing to it until it fills the OSTs it is using.

Look for such files on your clients (use lsof).

    Hi,

    We have a file system where each OST is a single SSD.

    One of those is reporting as 100% full (lfs df -h /snap8):
    snap8-OST004d_UUID          5.8T        2.0T        3.5T  37% /snap8[OST:77]
    snap8-OST004e_UUID          5.8T        5.5T        7.5G 100% /snap8[OST:78]
    snap8-OST004f_UUID          5.8T        2.0T        3.4T  38% /snap8[OST:79]

    However, I can't find any files on it:
    lfs find --ost snap8-OST004e /snap8/
    returns nothing.

    I guess that it has filled up, and that there is some bug or other that is
    now preventing proper behaviour - but I could be wrong.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Essentially, I'd like to find some of the files and delete or migrate
    some, and thus return it to useful production.

    Cheers,
    Alastair.
