Chapter 9. Ceph performance counters
Chapter 9. Ceph performance counters As a storage administrator, you can gather performance metrics of the Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster. The Ceph performance counters are a collection of internal infrastructure metrics. The collection, aggregation, and graphing of this metric data can be done by an assortment of tools and can be useful for performance analytics. 9.1. Access to Ceph performance counters The performance counters are available through a socket interface for the Ceph Monitors and the OSDs. The socket file for each respective daemon is located under /var/run/ceph , by default. The performance counters are grouped together into collection names. These collections names represent a subsystem or an instance of a subsystem. Here is the full list of the Monitor and the OSD collection name categories with a brief description for each : Monitor Collection Name Categories Cluster Metrics - Displays information about the storage cluster: Monitors, OSDs, Pools, and PGs Level Database Metrics - Displays information about the back-end KeyValueStore database Monitor Metrics - Displays general monitor information Paxos Metrics - Displays information on cluster quorum management Throttle Metrics - Displays the statistics on how the monitor is throttling OSD Collection Name Categories Write Back Throttle Metrics - Displays the statistics on how the write back throttle is tracking unflushed IO Level Database Metrics - Displays information about the back-end KeyValueStore database Objecter Metrics - Displays information on various object-based operations Read and Write Operations Metrics - Displays information on various read and write operations Recovery State Metrics - Displays - Displays latencies on various recovery states OSD Throttle Metrics - Display the statistics on how the OSD is throttling RADOS Gateway Collection Name Categories Object Gateway Client Metrics - Displays statistics on GET and PUT requests Objecter Metrics - Displays information on various object-based operations Object Gateway Throttle Metrics - Display the statistics on how the OSD is throttling 9.2. Display the Ceph performance counters The ceph daemon DAEMON_NAME perf schema command outputs the available metrics. Each metric has an associated bit field value type. Prerequisites A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster. Root-level access to the node. Procedure To view the metric's schema: Synatx Note You must run the ceph daemon command from the node running the daemon. Executing ceph daemon DAEMON_NAME perf schema command from the monitor node: Example Executing the ceph daemon DAEMON_NAME perf schema command from the OSD node: Example Table 9.1. The bit field value definitions Bit Meaning 1 Floating point value 2 Unsigned 64-bit integer value 4 Average (Sum + Count) 8 Counter Each value will have bit 1 or 2 set to indicate the type, either a floating point or an integer value. When bit 4 is set, there will be two values to read, a sum and a count. When bit 8 is set, the average for the interval would be the sum delta, since the read, divided by the count delta. Alternatively, dividing the values outright would provide the lifetime average value. Typically these are used to measure latencies, the number of requests and a sum of request latencies. Some bit values are combined, for example 5, 6 and 10. A bit value of 5 is a combination of bit 1 and bit 4. This means the average will be a floating point value. A bit value of 6 is a combination of bit 2 and bit 4. This means the average value will be an integer. A bit value of 10 is a combination of bit 2 and bit 8. This means the counter value will be an integer value. Additional Resources See Average count and sum section in the Red Hat Ceph Storage Administration Guide for more details. 9.3. Dump the Ceph performance counters The ceph daemon .. perf dump command outputs the current values and groups the metrics under the collection name for each subsystem. Prerequisites A running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster. Root-level access to the node. Procedure To view the current metric data: Syntax Note You must run the ceph daemon command from the node running the daemon. Executing ceph daemon .. perf dump command from the Monitor node: Executing the ceph daemon .. perf dump command from the OSD node: Additional Resources To view a short description of each Monitor metric available, please see the Ceph monitor metrics table . 9.4. Average count and sum All latency numbers have a bit field value of 5. This field contains floating point values for the average count and sum. The avgcount is the number of operations within this range and the sum is the total latency in seconds. When dividing the sum by the avgcount this will provide you with an idea of the latency per operation.
