Release 2014_006 (2014-02-05)

Configuration

  • Improve backup performance to keep backup jobs in the announced time window (midnight - 6am) (RT 93307).

  • Reduce Ceph backfill rate in case of OSDs joining/leaving the storage cluster. Ceph backfills should have minimal impact of production storage performance now.

  • Reduce frequency of backup server configuration reloads to prevent aborted backup jobs (#13112).

Monitoring

  • Enhanced Ceph performance monitoring. This helps admins to trouble shoot storage related probleems more quickly (#12589).
