Hi,

In my pve-no-subscription test cluster I noticed the following repeating entries in /var/log/syslog after upgrading pve-manager from 6.3-3 to 6.3-4:

Code:

The entries in /var/log/syslog are still coming very regularly. What are they? Are they anything to worry about? Can I do something to make them disappear? ;)

The pve cluster is connected to an external CEPH Octopus cluster, and have only one cephfs filesystem mounted on the hypervisors
Code:

Hi, please find ceph.conf below. It has entries for the mon hosts. Bear in mind that ceph.conf has not been changed at all. The messages in /var/log/syslog appeared after I patched the PVE cluster to 6.3-4.


Code: 
[global]
         auth_client_required = cephx
         auth_cluster_required = cephx
         auth_service_required = cephx
         bluestore_block_db_size = 53687091200
         cluster_network = xx.xx.xx.xx/24
         fsid = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
         mon_allow_pool_delete = true
         mon_host = [v2:xx.xx.xx.xx:3300/0,v1:xx.xx.xx.xx:6789/0] [v2:xx.xx.xx.xx:3300/0,v1:xx.xx.xx.xx:6789/0] [v2:xx.xx.xx.xx:3300/0,v1:xx.xx.xx.xx:6789/0]
         mon_initial_members = server1, server2, server3
         public_network = xx.xx.xx.xx/24

[client]
         keyring = /etc/pve/priv/$cluster.$name.keyring

[mds]
         keyring = /var/lib/ceph/mds/ceph-$id/keyring

[osd]
         debug_filer = "0/0"
         debug_filestore = "0/0"
         ms_dispatch_throttle_bytes = 1048576000
         objecter_inflight_op_bytes = 1048576000
         objecter_inflight_ops = 10240
         osd_disk_threads = 4
         osd_op_queue_cut_off = high
         osd_op_threads = 8
         osd_pg_object_context_cache_count = 1024

[mds.pve302]
         host = pve302
         mds_standby_for_name = pve

[mds.pve303]
         host = pve303
         mds standby for name = pve

[mds.pve301]
         host = pve301
         mds_standby_for_name = pve

Many thanks

I haven't been able to figure this out. As it is a test system, I have kept on patching it with everything that is released in the no-subscription repository. The current versions are:
Code:

It addition to the messages in /var/log/syslog, pvesm will also output the same messages:

I have seen a couple of other threads with similar error messages (https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/u...connecting-fuse-mounted-gdrive-storage.52259/ and https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/bug-in-pve-tools-df-when-adding-petabyte-scale-storage.60090/). But I don't think they are related as the issue mentioned in those threads have been fixed (and in my case it is not petabyte, but terrabyte).

I am not sure if the messages have any actual impact other that filling the logs (the four lines in the logs appear every 10 seconds), but I am a bit reluctant to patch my production environment until I know why the messages suddenly started appearing.

Any help much appreciated!

the pool referenced by the 'ev' storage definition likely does not exist. it's a bug in handling that situation that causes the messages, the storage should be treated as inactive.
 
Thank you so much! I didn't spot that one! Verified by setting the "ev" storage as inactive, and of course, the messages disappeared. I have obviously been chasing in the wrong direction here. Thanks also for creating the bug report.
I will mark this thread as solved as further tracking is done in the bug report.
