The sheer amount of objects seems to make a big difference when a pg is
rebalanced between drives though, in particular from a HDD (with SSD DB),

not have one object per file.)

Yeah, PRs welcome. :p
Just to be clear though, that shouldn't be performance-critical. It's
lazily updated by the MDS when the directory location changes, but not
otherwise. On Sun, Feb 9, 2020 at 3:24 PM Håkan T Johansson

Hi,
running 14.2.6, debian buster (backports).
Have set up a cephfs with 3 data pools and one metadata pool:
myfs_data, myfs_data_hdd, myfs_data_ssd, and myfs_metadata.
The data of all files are with the use of ceph.dir.layout.pool either
stored in the pools myfs_data_hdd or myfs_data_ssd. This has also been
checked by dumping the ceph.file.layout.pool attributes of all files.
The filesystem has 1617949 files and 36042 directories.
There are however approximately as many objects in the first pool created
for the cephfs, myfs_data, as there are files. They also becomes more or
fewer as files are created or deleted (so cannot be some leftover from
earlier exercises). Note how the USED size is reported as 0 bytes,
correctly reflecting that no file data is stored in them.

Is this expected?
I was assuming that in this scenario, all objects, both their data and any
keys would be either in the metadata pool, or the two pools where the
objects are stored.
Is it some additional metadata keys that are stored in the first
created data pool for cephfs? This would not be so nice in case the osd
selection rules for it are using worse disks than the data itself...
https://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/cephfs/file-layouts/#adding-a-data-pool-t…
notes there is “a small amount of metadata” kept in the primary pool.
Thanks! This I managed to miss, probably as it was at the bottom of the
page. In case one wants to use layouts to separate fast (likely many)
from slow (likely large) files, it then sounds as the primary pool should
the fast kind too, due to the large amount of objects. Thus this needs to
be highlighted early in that documentation.
That’s not terribly clear; what is actually
stored is a per-file location backtrace (its location in the directory tree) used for
hardlink lookups and disaster recovery
scenarios.
This info would be nice to add to the manual page. It is nice to know
what kind of information is stored there.
