1 MDS Autoscaler Module
2 =====================
3
4 The MDS Autoscaler Module monitors file systems to ensure sufficient MDS
5 daemons are available. It works by adjusting the placement specification for
6 the orchestrator backend of the MDS service. To enable, use:
7
8 .. sh:
9
10 ceph mgr module enable mds_autoscaler
11
12 The module will monitor the following file system settings to inform
13 placement count adjustments:
14
15 - ``max_mds`` file system setting
16 - ``standby_count_wanted`` file system setting
17
18 The Ceph monitor daemons are still responsible for promoting or stopping MDS
19 according to these settings. The ``mds_autoscaler`` simply adjusts the
20 number of MDS which are spawned by the orchestrator.
21
22 .. note: There is no CLI or module configurations as of now. Enable or disable
23 the module to turn on or off.
