Description

Sometimes, ceph daemon cant't be started up, because the service name which allocated by systemd-run was alread used. For details, please find the log below.
It seemd that the service name include a prefix, like 'run-', and a process id. If a process exited, its id will be reused, and result in conflicts of service name.

History

#1 Updated by Sage Weil over 8 years ago

  • Status changed from New to 12
  • Priority changed from Normal to High

seems like a systemd bug that the generated name isn't unique :(

we can work around this with --unit=...

this is needed for hammer. infernalis+ uses systemd natively (not systemd-run) so this won't be an issue

#2 Updated by chuanhong wang over 8 years ago

Tt would be better to attach the ceph daemon name with time stamp to generate the service name. Change for hammer: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/6271
