[ceph-users] MDS stuck in rejoin

Hi all, we had a client with the warning "[WRN] MDS_CLIENT_OLDEST_TID: 1 clients failing to advance oldest client/flush tid". I looked at the client and there was nothing going on, so I rebooted it. After the client was back, the message was still there. To clean this up I failed the MDS. Unfortunately, the MDS that took over is remained stuck in rejoin without doing anything. All that happened in the log was: [root@ceph-10 ceph]# tail -f ceph-mds.ceph-10.log 2023-07-20T15:54:29.147+0200 7fedb9c9f700 1 mds.2.896604 rejoin_start 2023-07-20T15:54:29.161+0200 7fedb9c9f700 1 mds.2.896604 rejoin_joint_start 2023-07-20T15:55:28.005+0200 7fedb9c9f700 1 mds.ceph-10 Updating MDS map to version 896614 from mon.4 2023-07-20T15:56:00.278+0200 7fedb9c9f700 1 mds.ceph-10 Updating MDS map to version 896615 from mon.4 [...] 2023-07-20T16:02:54.935+0200 7fedb9c9f700 1 mds.ceph-10 Updating MDS map to version 896653 from mon.4 2023-07-20T16:03:07.276+0200 7fedb9c9f700 1 mds.ceph-10 Updating MDS map to version 896654 from mon.4 After some time I decided to give another fail a try and, this time, the replacement daemon went to active state really fast. If I have a message like the above, what is the clean way of getting the client clean again (version: 15.2.17 (8a82819d84cf884bd39c17e3236e0632ac146dc4) octopus (stable))?
