When fdbcli change storeType for storage engines,
we switch the store type of storage servers one by one gracefully.
This avoids recruiting multiple storage servers on the same process,
which can cause OOM error.
- Make sure the disabled data distribution won't be accidentally enabled by the 'maintenance' command
- Make sure the status json reflects the status of DD accordingly
- Make sure the CLI can play with the new DD states correctly, i.e. print out warns when necessary
- Use pre-existing 'healthZone' key and write a special value to it in order to disable DD for all storage server failures
- Use a new system key 'rebalanceDDIgnored' key to disable/enable DD for all rebalance reasons(MountainChopper and ValleyFiller)
Kicked off two 200K correctness and showed no related errors.
Change the threshold team number per server that should set lastBuildTeamsFailed
from DESIRED_TEAMS_PER_SERVER to
(SERVER_KNOBS->DESIRED_TEAMS_PER_SERVER * (configuration.storageTeamSize + 1)) / 2;
If serverTeamRemover removes a team before machineTeamRemover brings
the machine team number down to the desired number, DD may create a new
team (due to teams removed by serverTeamRemover), which may be removed
later by machineTeamRemover. This causes unnnecessary extra data movement.
1) No need to check server with only one team when teamRemover finds
a server team or machine team to remove
2) Fix optimalTeamCount counting in teamTracker
If the minimum number of teams of servers in a team is less than the
target value (desired_team_number_per_server * (teamSize + 1) / 2),
the team remover should not remove it. Otherwise, DD will oscillate in
building more teams and removing redundant teams.
Do not do consistency check for three_data_hall mode because when
machines are not evenly distributed across data halls, we will
need to build more teams than the total desired number to make sure
the number of teams per server is no less than the target value.
Do not overbuild teams because we may oscillate between building more teams and
removing the redundant teams. The oscillation happens when the machines are not
evenly distributed across availability zones.
For example, in three_data_hall mode, we have 1 machine in 1 data hall for 2 data halls.
We have 3 machines in the 3rd data hall. To build enough (and more teams) for servers
in the 3rd data hall, we will overbuild teams. However,
the teamRemover will remove those newly teams.
Change to remove machine team with most machine teams, using the same
logic as the serverTeamRemover.
The featue is guarded by TR_FLAG_REMOVE_MT_WITH_MOST_TEAMS knob.
Before the serverTeamRemover tries to pick a team to remove,
it waits for all data movement to finish, which means all teams are healthy.
When the serverTeamRemover starts to pick a team to remove,
we believe all servers are healthy.
A storage server is not desired to be colocated with tLogs.
So we want to mark the server as undesired.
However, if there is not enough process in the system, we will
have no choice but do so.
The old logic makes the server undesired if optimalTeamCount > 0;
However, there is a rare case when optimalTeamCount is 1 when it is supposed to be 0.
To overcome the situation, we add another condition healthyTeamCount > 0
as a guard to mark such a colocated server undesired.
When a teamTracker is cancelled, e.g, by redundant teamRemover or badTeamRemover,
we should decrease the optimalTeamCount if the team is considered as an
optimal team, i.e., all members' machine fitness is no worse than unset, and
the team is healthy.
Because serverTeamRemover takes time to remove teams,
getTeamCollectionValid() need to wait for a while before concluding that
the number of server teams is larger than the desired number.
Pick the team whose minimum team number of a server is the largest one to remove.
AddTeamsBestOf should keep building teams until each server has at least the
target number of teams.
The redundant team removed by teamRemover will not exist
in the global teams data structure. So we will not find
the redundant team from shard-to-team mapping in the system key.
Before this change, teamTracker marks such team as PRIORITY_TEAM_UNHEALTHY.
With this change, it marks it as PRIORITY_TEAM_REDUNDANT
We build more teams than we finally want so that we can use serverTeamRemover() actor to remove the teams
whose member belong to too many teams. This allows us to get a more balanced number of teams per server.
Because the consistency check will try to conver the value to int64_t.
If no server exists, the variable will not be updated and thus get overflowed
when it is converted to int64_t
If a team is removed from DD, it will be marked as failed and eventually removed from the
global teams data structure.
Team healthyness is likely to be a temporary state which can be changed rather quickly.
There are cases where traceTeamCollectionInfo was called within the same execution block, i.e.,
no wait between the two traceTeamCollectionInfo calls.
Because simulation uses the same time for all execution instructions in the same execution block,
having more than one traceTeamCollectionInfo at the same time will mess up the trackLatest semantics.
When one of them is always chosen by simulator, simulation test will report false positive error.
Changing this function to actor and adding a small delay inside the function can solve this problem.
Whenever use selectReplicas function, be careful that it may have bugs!
This bug is that it always return false (not able to find candidates)
when the storage team size is 1. This is wrong because when storage team size
is 1, the selectReplicas should return an empty result.
When team collection add new server teams, it picks a team with
the least number of teams. We should only consider the healthy teams
because the unhealthy ones will not be useful.
Team collection should prioritize to build machine teams for a machine
that has the least number of healthy machine teams, instead of just
machine teams, because unhealthy machine team will not be able to
produce more server teams.
When team collection (TC) build server teams and machine teams,
it needs to build enough teams such that each server and machine has
the DESIRED_TEAMS_PER_SERVER server teams and machine teams.
This change calculate the number of teams (server team and machine teams)
needed to get each teams for each server and machine.
For example, we have 3 servers for replica factor 3. We can have only 1 team
but the desired team number is 3 times 5 equal to 15.
Instead of sanity checking the absolute team number per server, we check
the difference between the minServerTeamOnServer and maxServerTeamOnServer.
Add test for simulation test which make sure the server team number
per server will be no less than the desired_teams_per_server defined
in knobs and no larger than the max_teams_per_server.
Add similar test for machine teams number per machine as well.
Since Ratekeeper and DataDistributor are no longer running with Master, they
might be running with stateful processes before a new Master becomes alive,
which is undesirable.
This PR adds a monitoring of both Ratekeeper and DataDistributor at Cluster
Controller -- if Master runs on a stateless class and RK/DD runs at a worse
class, then RK/DD will be killed. I.e., RK/DD should be running at their own
classes or on the same stateless process as Master. After restart, RK/DD should
be running at a better process class.
Add a flag in HealthMetrics to indicate that batch priority is rate limited.
Data distributor pulls this flag from proxy to know roughly when rate limiting
happens.
DD uses this information to determine when to do the rebalance in the background,
i.e., moving data from heavily loaded servers to lighter ones. If the cluster is
currently rate limited for batch commits, then the rebalance will use longer
time intervals, otherwise use shorter intervals. See BgDDMountainChopper() and
BgDDValleyFiller() in DataDistributionQueue.actor.cpp.
Add a new role for ratekeeper.
Remove StorageServerChanges from data distribution.
Ratekeeper monitors storage servers, which borrows the idea from
DataDistribution.
After we add a new data distributor role, we publish the data
related to data distributor and rate keeper through the new
role (and new worker).
So the status needs to contact the data distributor, instead of master,
to get the status information.
In addTeam(), to determine the team is badTeam or not, we should check
redundantTeam before check satisfiesPolicy. Because if a team is
redundantTeam, it has been removed from the system before we call addTeam().
The only reason we call addTeam() for a removed redundantTeam is to
kick off the badTeam cleanup logic.
When we remove a machine team in teamRemover function,
we should always find the machine team in the global machineTeams.
Change the ASSERT to the above invariant.
The previous commit merge with the master, which just merges
the pull request #1062 from jzhou77/PR that adds a new DataDistribution role.
The merge causes conflicts and errors in simulation tests.
This commit resolves the code conflicts and
tries to fix the new errors after incorporating the new DataDistribution role
We do NOT enforce the removing order of removing a machine team
and the server teams on the machine team.
This is for the benefit of clear code logic.
When a storage server locality changes, we first remove the server
and its machine if needed, before we handle the server team removal
and addition.
We do not actively remove a machine team when it has no server team on it.
But since adding a server team may add a machine team, we need to be
careful that the machine team number is not larger than the desired number
due to server team creation.
So whenever a server team is removed, we should check if the teamRemover
should be kicked in.
When the machine number changes due to machine remove event,
the desired machine team number changes. Then we need to
make sure the teamRemover actor is running to clean up the
redundant teams.
getTeam is called very frequently and does not create a new team.
So no need to call teamRemover in getTeam.
teamRemover should be called only when a new team may be added.
The buildTeam() can create teams with undesired storage servers, which are
considered unhealthy. As a result, the data movement can become stuck.
Fix this by adding an ACTOR monitorHealthyTeams that builds team every one
second whenever there is no healthy teams.
Clean up storageServerTracker() interface.
When zeroHealthyTeams signals and the storage server becomes healthy, we could
attempt buildTeam before the ServerStatusMap is updated. As a result, the
healthy server is not available for use. Fix by delaying the buildTeam after the
status map is updated.
This bug was introduced in cee23ee3. During a configuration change, the data
distributor was restarted, which destroys previous DDTeamCollection and cancels
all previous teamTracker(). In this case, even though the healthy team count
reaches 0, there is no need to try to rebuild teams. The bug is triggered when
trying rebuilding teams, DDTeamCollection is already destroyed.
When moving keys to a team, if one of the server in the target team died, then
the move can become stuck. This is because the DDTeamCollection waits for all
the data movement of the failed server to be completed. However, in this case,
because the movement has not finished yet, checking the database tells us there
is no key assocated with this server and it is safe to go ahead. In reality,
only the in-memory structure knows there is pending movement, i.e., unfinished
move causes some keys to be attributed to the failed server. Thus, the server
can't be removed yet. Fix by adding a check with in-memory structure in
waitForAllDataRemoved().
Use const& to optimize a few function parameters.
The quite database can fail to send out requests and report timeout. This seems
to be caused by reusing a request that uses the same ReplyPromise. Another bug
is Proxy can wait for unneeded time for a dabase change, while the distributor
is already known to itself.
The setDistributor() sets an AsyncVar and then runs waitFailureClient. This
ordering is wrong because the AsyncVar::set triggers the other loop to run
first, which will wait on Never(). The correct code should wait on the Future
returned by the waitFailureClient.
This fixed a bug found by upgrade test, where the configuration monitor of the
data distributor was monitoring excludedServersVersionKey, which doesn't
change in ChangeConfig workload. As a result, data distributor was not aware of
configuration changes.
Adding this new key and make sure this key is updated in configuration changes
so that the monitor can detect configuration changes.
After controller starts one, it will wait for that one and ignore any rejoins
received later.
Add remoteRecovered() to data distribution for remote team collection.
Found in tests, a move key conflict exception was not handled because the
Future object was not waited by someone. As a result, the data distributor
did not die and database checking couldn't get the metric and keep trying until
timeout.
Use getRateInfo's endpoint as the ID for the DataDistributorInterface.
For now, added a "rejoined" flag for ClusterControllerData and Proxy.
TODO: move DataDistributorInterface into ServerDBInfo.
Let cluster controller to start a new data distributor role by sending a
message to a chosen worker.
Change MasterInterface usage in DataDistribution to masterId
Add DataDistributor rejoin handling.
This allows the data distributor to tell the new cluster controller of its
existence so that the controller doesn't spawn a new one. I.e., there should
be only ONE data distributor in the cluster.
If DataDistributor (DD) doesn't join in a while, then ClusterController (CC) tries
to recruit one as DD. CC also monitors DD and restarts one if it failed.
The Proxy is also monitoring the DD. If DD failed, the Proxy will ask CC for
the new DD.
Add GetRecoveryInfo RPC to master server, which is called by data distributor
to obtain the recovery Transaction version from the master server.
Added three knobs to control team remover
bool TR_FLAG_DISABLE_TEAM_REMOVER:
Disable the teamRemover actor
double TR_REMOVE_MACHINE_TEAM_DELAY:
Wait for the specified time before try to remove next machine team
double TR_WAIT_FOR_ALL_MACHINES_HEALTHY_DELAY:
Wait before checking if all machines are healthy
When we remove a server due to server failure, we need to
remove the related server teams AND remove the server team from
the machine team.
In the previous commit, we forgot to remove the server team from
the machine team.
