Hello,

We have ceph hammer with proxmox 4.4. We are preparaing to upgrade to the last version.
The cluster get 5 nodes with 4 osds (4To by sata disks).

Yesterday, we changed the nvme journal disk to intel ssd with more performances on 2 nodes.

The second node without any vms get a cpu average usage of 25/30% and a delay of 4.
If i move a vm on this node, the cpu usage of the vm become 30% (before on the other node : 6%)

I don't understand why.

Have you an idea for help me please ?

Please elaborate more on this, as I do not quite understand what happend on which node. And what your general system looks like.

Same cpu model on both nodes ?

if yes, are you sure that the cpu is running at the maximum frequency ? (check performance/powersave mode in your bios)
 
thanks for help

@spirit : yes all node are the same :

Node1 : ok => 50 vms
Node2 : cpu 30% average used => only 2 vm
Node3 : ok => 20 vms
Node4 : ok => 10 vms
Node5 : ok => 10 vms

if i move a mv from another node to node 2 : the cpu usage of the vm become 30%

We have 10G storage network with bonding (2 network card for each nodes)

I tried to delete osd an recrete them on the node 2

Not better

IOStat no sho difference with working node

On the node 2 with hdparm =>
root@GPL-HV3302:/var/log/ceph# hdparm -t -T /dev/nvme0n1

/dev/nvme0n1:
Timing cached reads: 2472 MB in 1.99 seconds = 1240.35 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 1412 MB in 3.00 seconds = 470.04 MB/sec

On a workingnode =>
root@GPL-HV3305:~# hdparm -t -T /dev/nvme0n1

/dev/nvme0n1:
Timing cached reads: 17236 MB in 1.99 seconds = 8643.32 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 5452 MB in 3.00 seconds = 1816.41 MB/sec

Yes

I upload 2 files.

I can see that cpu usage of a vm : 2% with htop
and 30% in the promox gui...

Very strange
Click to expand...

node2: cpu MHz : 415.781
working node: cpu MHz : 2493.906

check your cpu governor configuration in bios,
or try to add

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="intel_pstate=disable intel_idle.max_cstate=0 processor.max_cstate=1"

in /etc/default/grub

then #update-grub

and reboot
 
Thanks for your help.

Finally, the problem was the ssd. We changed it and all become ok.

We tested it with
# hdparm -t -T /dev/nvme0n1

So, result was half that a working node

Thanks for you help.
