After a critical node failure on my lab cluster, which won't come back up and is still down, the RBD objects are still being watched / mounted according to ceph. I can't shell to the node to rbd unbind them as the node is down. I am absolutely certain that nothing is using these images and they don't have snapshots either (and this IP is not even remotely close to the those of the monitors in the cluster). I blocked the IP usingceph osd blocklist add but after 30 minutes, they are still being watched. Them being watched (they are RWO ceph-csi volumes) prevents me from re-using them in the cluster. As far as I'm aware, ceph should remove the watchers after 30 minutes and they've been blocklisted for hours now.root@node0:~# rbd status kubernetes/csi-vol-e6a07ccd-93f6-4c47-a948-201501440fff Watchers: watcher=10.0.0.103:0/992994811 client.1634081 cookie=139772597209280 root@node0:~# rbd snap list kubernetes/csi-vol-e6a07ccd-93f6-4c47-a948-201501440fff root@node0:~# rbd info kubernetes/csi-vol-e6a07ccd-93f6-4c47-a948-201501440fff rbd image 'csi-vol-e6a07ccd-93f6-4c47-a948-201501440fff': size 10 GiB in 2560 objects order 22 (4 MiB objects) snapshot_count: 0 id: 4ff5353b865e1 block_name_prefix: rbd_data.4ff5353b865e1 format: 2 features: layering op_features: flags: create_timestamp: Fri Mar 31 14:46:51 2023 access_timestamp: Fri Mar 31 14:46:51 2023 modify_timestamp: Fri Mar 31 14:46:51 2023 root@node0:~# rados -p kubernetes listwatchers rbd_header.4ff5353b865e1 watcher=10.0.0.103:0/992994811 client.1634081 cookie=139772597209280 root@node0:~# ceph osd blocklist ls 10.0.0.103:0/0 2023-04-16T13:58:34.854232+0200 listed 1 entries root@node0:~# ceph daemon osd.0 config get osd_client_watch_timeout { "osd_client_watch_timeout": "30" } Is it possible to kick a watcher out manually, or is there not much I can do here besides shutting down the entire cluster (or OSDs) and getting them back up? If it is a bug, I'm happy to help figuring out it's root cause and see if I can help writing a fix. Cheers, Max.
