[SOLVED] Pve 8 - CephFS not mounting

[Urbaman]

Hi,

After upgrade to 8, I stopped and restarted a cluster (3 nodes) with both a Ceph cluster (for VMs) and a CephFS cluster (for Backups).
It seems the CephFs fails to mount, with followig lines in the syslog:

Jul 03 15:42:13 pvenode1 systemd[1]: /lib/systemd/system/ceph-volume@.service:8: Unit uses KillMode=none. This is unsafe, as it disables systemd's process lifecycle management for the service. Please update the service to use a safer KillMode=, such as 'mixed' or 'control-group'. Support for KillMode=none is deprecated and will eventually be removed.

Ceph results being up and all green, all monitors, managers and metadataservers up and running.

How can I debug/solve this?
Thank you.

Hey,

could you post the output of ceph fs status and try mounting it manually with

mount -v -t ceph 10.0.40.11,10.0.40.12,10.0.40.13:/ /mnt/pve/Cephfs_SAS900MB -o name=admin,secretfile=/etc/pve/priv/ceph/Cephfs_SAS900MB.secret,conf=/etc/pve/ceph.conf,fs=Cephfs_SAS900MB

Mounting it manually might give a more detailed explanation of what exactly went wrong.

Hi,

Thank you very much for your feedback, just restarting the mds's fixed it.

I probably think that the mds's started without the monitors up (I had to start them manually), and then needed to be restarted manually to properly manage the pool and the mount.
At least, this is the chronology of what happened and what I did to solve it.

Thank you again, I can't give more feedback/insight as I do not have the problem at hand any more.
Let's see next time I'll stop and restart the cluster if it keeps reappearing.

I get the Support for KillMode=none is deprecated and will eventually be removed. issue when i reboot a node and for some reason it can't contact the other ceph nodes.

In general is there something we should be changing if Kill Mode=none is unsafe?
