[ceph-users] total ceph outage again, need help

Dear cephers, I'm sitting with a major ceph outage again. The mon/mgr hosts suffer from a packet storm of ceph traffic between ceph fs clients and the mons. No idea why this is happening. Main problem is, that I can't get through to the cluster. Admin commands hang forever: [root@gnosis ~]# ceph osd set nodown However, "ceph status" returns and shows me that I need to do something: [root@gnosis ~]# ceph status cluster: id: --- health: HEALTH_WARN 2 MDSs report slow metadata IOs 1 MDSs report slow requests 8 osds down services: mon: 3 daemons, quorum ceph-01,ceph-02,ceph-03 mgr: ceph-01(active, starting), standbys: ceph-02, ceph-03 mds: con-fs2-1/1/1 up {0=ceph-08=up:active}, 1 up:standby-replay osd: 288 osds: 208 up, 216 in; 153 remapped pgs data: pools: 10 pools, 2545 pgs objects: 86.71 M objects, 218 TiB usage: 277 TiB used, 1.5 PiB / 1.8 PiB avail pgs: 2542 active+clean 3 active+clean+scrubbing+deep io: client: 152 MiB/s rd, 72 MiB/s wr, 854 op/s rd, 796 op/s wr Is there any way to get admin commands to the mons with higher priority?
