Error every other day. LXD times out etc

LXD
#1

I get these types of errors every other day. Tried reload, restart of lxd deamon. Allso reboot of server. Still the errors are coming back. i get kicked out when i use lxc exec to the container. Then i becomes really slow. lxc list takes forever. Minutes if it show results at all.

Ubuntu 22.04.1.
LXD snap 5.0 lts channel.

#2

Is there something that triggers this? A load spike on your workloads perhaps?

#3

Not really. The load is very varied. Cant really find and logic to it. Last the it happened the load was low.

Ive had the same setup and load for at least a year. This is new since a few weeks.

#4

@tomp now i cant do exec, just stand still. BUT the lxc seems to be working. Can connect to the webserver. So something in the communication ?

#5

Did a reload. Got this. Doesn’t say much

Some more logs. Couldn’t access anything. Started working again after about 30min. Containers seem to be working during the timeouts.

#8

After some more testing ive realized that the problem is the communication with the container and daemon when i do lxc exec. If i ssh into the container everything is fine.

#9

Some more…
I have 2 vms. One debian and one windows 11. Both crasched with the error
qemu-system-x86_64: Issue while setting TUNSETSTEERINGEBPF: Invalid argument with fd: 51(50 on win11), prog_fd: -1

lxc list wont work after, lxc exec wont work either.

Rebooted server and now i works again. lxd daemon log and lxd log are empty.

#10

winvm crashed. Some errors:

Error: websocket: close 1006 (abnormal closure): unexpected EOF

#11

@tomp any thoughts? this time it took 2 days after reboot.

#12

i did sudo systemctl reload snap.lxd.daemon but i still cant do lxc list etc.
Cant restart lxd every other day. Containers seems to be working but the win vm is not responsive at all since yesterday.

#13

Please can you check the load and memory usage when it occurs as this sort of thing normally happens your system is overloaded in some way. And as both the VM is hanging and LXD is having trouble accessing the database in a timely manner its all pointing to an overloaded system.

#14

@tomp
Memory was 18% free at the time (24gb). CPU was a 40% usage.
I still cant do lxc list
“lxc list
Error: Get “http://unix.socket/1.0/instances?filter=&recursion=2”: net/http: timeout awaiting response header”

VM is still unresponsive. lxc stop vm-name -f wont work. Can i force it?

#15

What does top show and what does ps aux | grep qemu show?

Also, can you try this using the latest/stable channel? (keep in mind you wont be able to downgrade back to the LTS channel so if thats a problem don’t do it).

vms right?

#19

So it looks like those 2 qemu VM processes have 15.9G + 7.3G = 23.2G of resident memory.

How much memory does the server have?

You can kill those qemu processes to force the VMs to stop.

#20

The server has 128gb of ram. Reg ecc ddr4. But should lxd really crash if the memory is full? Ok so kill pid may work? I can ssh into containers and they work. But lxc exec, list, info wobt work.

#21

Its likely qemu has crashed and is blocking lxc list. So we should focus on why qemu is crashing/freezing/blocking - it may be an I/O fault. Anything in dmesg or journalctl?
