This is the eighth update to the Ceph Nautilus release series. This release
fixes issues across a range of subsystems. We recommend that all users upgrade
to this release. Please note the following important changes in this
release; as always the full changelog is posted at:
https://ceph.io/releases/v14-2-8-nautilus-released
Notable Changes
---------------
* The default value of `bluestore_min_alloc_size_ssd` has been changed
to 4K to improve performance across all workloads.
* The following OSD memory config options related to bluestore cache autotuning can now
be configured during runtime:
- osd_memory_base (default: 768 MB)
- osd_memory_cache_min (default: 128 MB)
- osd_memory_expected_fragmentation (default: 0.15)
- osd_memory_target (default: 4 GB)
The above options can be set with::
ceph config set osd <option> <value>
* The MGR now accepts `profile rbd` and `profile rbd-read-only` user caps.
These caps can be used to provide users access to MGR-based RBD functionality
such as `rbd perf image iostat` an `rbd perf image iotop`.
* The configuration value `osd_calc_pg_upmaps_max_stddev` used for upmap
balancing has been removed. Instead use the mgr balancer config
`upmap_max_deviation` which now is an integer number of PGs of deviation
from the target PGs per OSD. This can be set with a command like
`ceph config set mgr mgr/balancer/upmap_max_deviation 2`. The default
`upmap_max_deviation` is 1. There are situations where crush rules
would not allow a pool to ever have completely balanced PGs. For example, if
crush requires 1 replica on each of 3 racks, but there are fewer OSDs in 1 of
the racks. In those cases, the configuration value can be increased.
* RGW: a mismatch between the bucket notification documentation and the actual
message format was fixed. This means that any endpoints receiving bucket
notification, will now receive the same notifications inside a JSON array
named 'Records'. Note that this does not affect pulling bucket notification
from a subscription in a 'pubsub' zone, as these are already wrapped inside
that array.
* CephFS: multiple active MDS forward scrub is now rejected. Scrub currently
only is permitted on a file system with a single rank. Reduce the ranks to one
via `ceph fs set <fs_name> max_mds 1`.
* Ceph now refuses to create a file system with a default EC data pool. For
further explanation, see:
https://docs.ceph.com/docs/nautilus/cephfs/createfs/#creating-pools
* Ceph will now issue a health warning if a RADOS pool has a `pg_num`
value that is not a power of two. This can be fixed by adjusting
the pool to a nearby power of two::
ceph osd pool set <pool-name> pg_num <new-pg-num>
Alternatively, the warning can be silenced with::
ceph config set global mon_warn_on_pool_pg_num_not_power_of_two false
