Hi all,

I’m following up on my earlier email regarding RGW multisite replication behavior in Ceph 19.2.3.

To briefly recap: replication works as expected for buckets owned by regular users, but for buckets owned by the RGW Account (for example, RGW84754594545284760), object replication remains in a PENDING state indefinitely. There are no errors reported in the sync status on either zone.

I wanted to check if anyone else has encountered a similar issue with account-owned buckets in multisite setups, or if this is a known limitation or bug in Quincy. Any insights, confirmations, or suggested workarounds would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your time and help.

Best regards,
Ashok

Hi,

I’m currently using Ceph version 19.2.3 and have a setup with two zones (zone-a and zone-b) under a single zonegroup (zonegroup-a) and realm (realm-a).

When I replicate objects from bucket-a (in zone-a) to bucket-b (in zone-b) for buckets owned by a regular user (ex: my-user), the replication works successfully.


However, replication does not work for buckets owned by the RGW Account (ex: RGW84754594545284760).

In this case:


  • There are no errors shown in the sync status on either zone.

  • The replication status of the objects in the source bucket remains in a “PENDING” state indefinitely.

Has anyone else encountered a similar issue, or is there any known workaround for this?

I would really appreciate any kind of advice or guidance regarding this.

Thanks,
Ashok M
