cpaelzergood morning06:21
cpaelzerI realized I like parentheses too much :-( given how often I wish there would be a general form of multi level06:42
cpaelzeryou know (what I [not really] mean)? :-)06:42
DirtyCajunso... using iostat i have a 12 Disk raid6. No underlying drive is using more than 50% but dm-2 (the lvm lv) is at 100%. is there a way to optimize this?06:44
cpaelzerDirtyCajun: this isn't a problem06:50
cpaelzerDirtyCajun: essentially it means "something is in flight" at any time06:51
cpaelzerbut it is not a "limit" as it would be with old style sequential queue disks06:51
cpaelzerdue to deep async queues on modern devices and raid on top this is not like 10 years ago where 100% means you can't go faster06:51
DirtyCajuncpaelzer, ok, if that is a non-issue, i then need to optimize the way that i am transferring the data to the disk to increase speed?06:52
cpaelzercheck the iostat man page on %util - it even says "But for devices serving requests in parallel, such as RAID arrays and modern SSDs, this number does not reflect their performance limits."06:52
cpaelzerDirtyCajun: so your question converts to "how can I go faster" is that right?06:52
DirtyCajunyes. I am currently using bbcp so i can tweak threads unless i am hitting another bottleneck i dont see06:53
DirtyCajunbox to box its going from a raid6 to a raid6 on a 10Gbps backplane06:53
DirtyCajunthoughts?06:54
cpaelzerbusy - back in a few mins DirtyCajun06:54
DirtyCajunok06:55
DirtyCajuncpaelzer, actually... (for when you get back) according to a raid calculator my raid6 should only be getting about 180MB/s full write... so i assume im getting above that because im on the very begging of the disk06:58
cpaelzerDirtyCajun: yes on spinning disks the beginning can be somewhat faster07:06
DirtyCajunjust thew me off because of the %util per disk07:07
DirtyCajunim just impatient because its 48TB :P07:07
cpaelzerso do you need/want to be faster - or did you just wonder about the 100%?07:07
cpaelzerthe 50% on the actual disks seem to indicate that you could go faster if you push faster07:09
cpaelzerbut performance always depends on details, so take that sentence above with a grain of salt07:09
cpaelzers/push faster/push harder (i.e. do more i/O)07:09
lordievaderGood morning07:10
cpaelzerhi lordievader07:10
lordievaderHey cpaelzer07:10
lordievaderHow are you doing this monday morning?07:10
cpaelzerlordievader: a bit nervous for non IRC comatible reasons, but other than that good :-)07:13
cpaelzerand how is your week starting lordievader?07:13
cpaelzerDirtyCajun: I'm no bbcp expert, but more streams could do what you need07:13
lordievaderLike normal. I suppose that is a good thing 😃07:13
cpaelzer(to push harder and therby go faster)07:13
cpaelzeryeah normal=good lordievader07:14
DirtyCajuni bumped it from 4 streams to 8 and its literally didnt change anything07:14
lordievaderThanks for the confirmation :)07:14
DirtyCajunit think its gonna be what its gonna be07:14
cpaelzerDirtyCajun: if you are ok with it I'm fine :-)07:15
DirtyCajunand its all over the board. its just the average is about what i said above07:15
DirtyCajunhttp://termbin.com/zc6307:15
DirtyCajuncrazy how it can hit 53 as a low and 550 as a high in less than 30 sec07:16
cpaelzerDirtyCajun: depending how it copies I/O block sizes are very important07:17
DirtyCajuni have it set at 4M blocksizes07:17
cpaelzerso if it copied files as-is a bunch of small files might be slow and huge one fast - depending on how it writes to the target disk07:17
DirtyCajunnone of these files are <10GB07:17
cpaelzerwell that qualifies as non-small :-)07:18
DirtyCajunso it SHOULD be sequential read and write07:18
DirtyCajunhahaha07:18
DirtyCajunits more all over the place than my wife07:18
DirtyCajunlast one went at 439MB/s07:18
DirtyCajunthen it will just crap the bed for a few seconds. Im assuming something to do with write cache/ dumping from write cache during that itme07:19
DirtyCajuntime07:19
cpaelzeryou might be hunting just a bad average calculation algorithm07:19
DirtyCajunthats true.07:19
cpaelzermaybe if you'd report every 30 seconds you never would have spent time to thnk about it07:19
DirtyCajunyeah. im  looking at the 1 sec differences not the average on the right. fair.07:19
cpaelzerand it is documented to scale the tcp window sizes07:20
cpaelzerso if it hits a max and throttles back with so much in flight you might veen have such a short drop before you are back up07:20
DirtyCajuni set it to 60 second polling and im gonna go chill out for a bit. Its pumping through to grafana so i can look at it that way as an overall stat07:21
DirtyCajunthanks for the time cpaelzer07:21
cpaelzeryw DirtyCajun07:28
zioprotogood morning09:06
zioprotoI am following the story of this bug for Ubuntu Xenial https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/173821909:07
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1738219 in linux (Ubuntu Bionic) "the kernel is blackholing IPv6 packets to linkdown nexthops" [Medium,In progress]09:07
zioprotoFix Commit is the last step before Fix Released ?09:07
zioprotoI mean, packages should be available in proposed, right ?09:08
zioprotoI added http://ch.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-proposed/main amd64 Packages to my source list09:11
zioprotobut how do I understand which kernel version has the fix for that bug ?09:12
zioprotoI did09:12
zioprotoapt changelog linux-image-generic09:12
zioprotobut I cannot find the bug in the changelog09:12
=== led2 is now known as led1
fricklerjamespage: would be nice if you could target this for bionic https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ceph/+bug/175037614:10
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1750376 in ceph (Ubuntu) "ceph-volume binary missing from 12.2.2 packages" [Undecided,New]14:10
jamespagefrickler: yes of course14:22
jamespagefrickler: btw ceph-disk is not deprecated as of 12.2.2 (that got reverted)14:23
jamespageit will be as of next release tho14:23
jamespagewith removal the one after14:23
fricklerjamespage: well, http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/ceph-volume/#migrating still claims so14:24
fricklerjamespage: but yeah, ceph folks are doing lots of (not so) funny things currently14:24
jamespageI was going on the ML thread from pre-christmas14:26
ahasenackrbasak: hi, I'm doing a dist-upgrade on a xenial server, and this was shown:14:31
ahasenackThe following packages will be REMOVED:14:32
ahasenack  python-certbot14:32
ahasenackrbasak: did that package change names?14:32
ahasenackhm, python3-certbot is a NEW install14:32
ahasenackI have python-certbot 0.19.0-1+ubuntu16.04.1+certbot+1 installed14:32
ahasenackapt-cache policy doesn't show from where, just the local dpkg db14:33
ahasenackmaybe it was a package from upstream?14:33
ahasenackfginther: hi, do you remember where you installed that python-certbot package from? It's landscape's jenkins14:33
ahasenackoh, holiday probably14:33
rbasakahasenack: that doesn't sound like a package from the archive14:35
ahasenackoh, you are right14:35
ahasenackpython3-certbot comes from a ppa14:35
rbasakahasenack: could you see if https://jenkins.ubuntu.com/server/job/git-ubuntu-ci/288/rebuild works for you please? It just seems to redirect me back without starting a rebuild.15:37
ahasenackrbasak: checking that url17:02
ahasenackrbasak: I see a build, and I'm not logged in. No button to trigger a rebuild. let me login now17:04
ahasenackrbasak: now I see the "rebuild" link on the left menu17:04
rbasakAh17:04
rbasakI appear to be logged out.17:04
rbasakSorry!17:04
rbasakThank you for looking for me.17:04
rbasakI should have thought to check that.17:04
ahasenackit's definitely not obvious17:05
ahasenackrbasak: thanks for the ua-tools review. Are you tagging and uploading?17:17
rbasakahasenack: already done :)17:17
ahasenacknice, thanks17:17
ahasenackI'll keep an eye on excuses17:18
j4g0i have a folder with chmod 2770 to which i'd like to mount a network share. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently does not tell me how i could recreate the permissions on the folder, where should i read up on that?17:24
ahasenackj4g0: are you sharing between two linux boxes? Or the server is windows and the client is linux? Where is this chmod?17:32
j4g0server is a kazooli sme server 9.2, which is based on centOS, the box i want to mount on is ubuntu 16.04. The folder i have is on my ubuntu box.17:33
j4g0i only found a description on how to set the gid in the fstab file on the mounting box but that only means the folder is set to chgrp <funny_name_hereY17:35
ahasenacksetting a gid is not the same as permissions (2770)17:36
j4g0true, hence my question on how i could recreate those permissions17:36
ahasenackwhat is it you want to do, force all files to be owned by a certain group?17:36
j4g0yes, i want all files in said folder to belong to a certain grp17:37
ahasenackthe server part, if that's samba (most likely it is) has options for that, per share17:37
j4g0ah ok, tyvm17:37
j4g0then i know where to look that up17:37
ahasenackcheck the smb.conf manpage, look for the "force group" parameter17:37
ahasenackthere are other force <thing> parameters17:38
ahasenackthat won't change already existing files17:39
ahasenackif you need those to be owned by a specific group on the client side, then I think you need to look at mount.cifs options17:39
ahasenackspecifically, forcegid17:39
ahasenackbut if that gid belongs to a different group on your client then it does on the server, you will see different names when listing the files17:40
ahasenackdifferent group owners, I mean17:40
j4g0i'll try the mount.cifs first then, tyvm17:41

Pinkamena_DHey, I am having an issue where the right shift key will not work while connected over xrdp. The left one works ok. I have tried the suggested steps checking the layouts in /etc/xrdp. The Keycodes match for 50 and 62 correctly. I have tried to map the right shift key to the left action also as a last ditch action but this just makes many other keys not work lol.20:17
HardcoreKrypton?20:19
Pinkamena_Dquestion mark for me? :)20:19
