Description

I have a smallish filesystem to which I only allocated a 5GB MDT since the overall dataset was always intended to be very small. This filesystem is simply being used to add and remove files in a loop with something along the lines of:

while true; do
    cp -a /lib /mnt/lustre/foo
    rm -rf /mnt/lustre/foo
done

It seems in doing this I have filled up my MDT with an "oi.16" file that is now 94% of the space of the MDT:

# stat /mnt/lustre/mdt/oi.16 
  File: `/mnt/lustre/mdt/oi.16'
  Size: 4733702144	Blocks: 9254568    IO Block: 4096   regular file

It seems the OI is leaking and not being reaped when files are removed.

Since we have no plan to back port more patches to b2_1 based branch, then close it.

[Andreas Dilger]

I'm not sure why this bug was closed. The patch for b2_1 was still not landed, and the work to rebuild the OI files in LFSCK Phase 4 is not completed.

Don't know why it stalled. Suspect it may have been kept out near the 2.1.4 release as not being important enough for the risk. Not sure why it didn't go in later.

back port to b2_1: http://review.whamcloud.com/#change,4516

This seems to have stalled back in Dec., strangely enough, with +3. Any reason it did not progress to landing?

[Peter Jones]

Yes we will fix this for 2.1.4
