Documentation #58590
osd_op_thread_suicide_timeout is not documented
0%
Description
There are plenty of references to configuration option osd_op_thread_suicide_timeout but this config variable is not explained anywhere.
- Red Hat's (obsolete?) 2018 presentation "Optimizing Ceph Object Storage For Production in Multisite Clouds"
- CERN's (more obsolete?) tuning presentation.
- Debugging documentation at https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/dev/developer_guide/debugging-gdb/
- Mailing lists etc.
I see that in Quincy the default value seems to be 150.
Any other config variable that I have came across has been documented in docs.ceph.com but this variable is not or at least a web search limited to site:docs.ceph.com does not find it.
It would be nice to know what this variable does and why several tuning guides talk about increasing it - often together with talking about reducing effect of network problems.
