Introduction, background, definitions

Batch operations that run asynchronously and may take seconds (minutes, hours, etc.) to execute - are called eXtended actions (xactions).

Internally, xaction is an abstraction at the root of the inheritance hierarchy that also contains specific user-visible jobs: copy-bucket, evict-objects, and more.

For the most recently updated list of all supported jobs and their respective compile-time properties, see the source.

All jobs run asynchronously, have start and stop times, and common generic statistics

Further, each and every job kind has its own display name, access permissions, scope (bucket and/or global), and a number of boolean properties - examples including:

Property	Description
`Startable`	true if user can start this job via generic jobi-start API
`RefreshCap`	the system must refresh capacity stats upon the job’s completion

Many kinds of jobs can be manually started via generic job API (which’s in turn utilized by the ais start command - see next).

Notable exceptions include electing new primary and listing objects in a given bucket - in both of those cases, there’s a separate, more convenient and intuitive API that does the job, so to speak.

Job starting, stopping (i.e., aborting), and monitoring commands all have equivalent shorter versions. For instance ais start download can be expressed as ais start download, while ais wait copy-bucket Z8WkHxwIrr is the same as ais wait Z8WkHxwIrr.

Rest of this document covers starting, stopping, and otherwise managing job kinds and specific job instances. For job monitoring, please use ais show job command and its numerous subcommands and options.

ais show job

`ais job` command

Has the following static completions aka subcommands:

1 $ ais job <TAB-TAB>
2 start   stop    wait    rm     show

and further:

1 $ ais job --help
2 NAME:
3    ais job - monitor, query, start/stop and manage jobs and eXtended actions (xactions)
4 
5 USAGE:
6    ais job command [arguments...] [command options]
7 
8 COMMANDS:
9    start  run batch job
10    stop   terminate a single batch job or multiple jobs (press <TAB-TAB> to select, '--help' for options)
11    wait   wait for a specific batch job to complete (press <TAB-TAB> to select, '--help' for options)
12    rm     cleanup finished jobs
13    show   show running and finished jobs ('--all' for all, or press <TAB-TAB> to select, '--help' for options)
14 
15 OPTIONS:
16    --help, -h  show help

Notice, though, that start, stop, and wait` (verbs) have shorter versions, e.g.:

ais start is a built-in alias for ais job start, and so on.

For all configured pre-built and user-defined aliases (aka “shortcuts”), run ais alias or ais alias --help

Start job

ais start <JOB_NAME> [arguments...]

Start a certain job. Some jobs require additional arguments such as bucket name to execute.

Note: job start download|dsort have slightly different options. Please see their documentation for more:

Examples

Start cluster-wide LRU

Starts LRU xaction on all nodes

1 $ ais start lru
2 Started "lru" xaction.

An administrator may choose to run LRU on a subset of buckets. This can be achieved by using the --buckets flag to provide a comma-separated list of buckets, for instance --buckets bck1,gcp://bck2, on which LRU needs to be performed. Additionally, the --force(-f) option can be used to override the bucket’s lru.enabled property.

Note: To ensure safety, the force flag (-f) only works when a list of buckets is provided.

1 $ ais start lru --buckets ais://buck1,aws://buck2 -f

Re-chunk objects

Re-chunking converts objects between monolithic and chunked representations based on the specified chunking parameters. The job processes objects in the bucket according to the configured threshold:

Objects below objsize_limit are stored as monolithic (single file)
Objects at or above objsize_limit are split into chunks of chunk_size
When objsize_limit is 0, chunking is disabled and all objects are restored as monolithic

Usage:

1 $ ais rechunk BUCKET [--chunk-size SIZE] [--objsize-limit SIZE] [--prefix PREFIX]

Flags:

--chunk-size SIZE - Size of each chunk (e.g., 16MiB, 20mb). Optional: if omitted, uses the bucket’s current chunk_size
--objsize-limit SIZE - Object size threshold for chunking (e.g., 50MiB, 100mb); objects >= this size will be chunked. Optional: if omitted, uses the bucket’s current objsize_limit
--prefix PREFIX - Only rechunk objects with the specified prefix (can also be embedded in the bucket URI)
--wait - Wait for the job to complete before returning
--wait-timeout DURATION - Maximum time to wait (e.g., 5m, 1h)
--yes, -y - Assume ‘yes’ to all prompts (skip confirmation)

Note: If either size argument is missing, you will be prompted to confirm using the bucket’s current configuration.

Examples:

Rechunk using the bucket’s existing chunk configuration (prompts for confirmation):

1 $ ais rechunk ais://mybucket
2 Rechunk configuration:
3 	chunk_size:     16MiB
4 	objsize_limit:  50MiB
5 Proceed with these values? [Y/N]: y
6 Started "rechunk" xaction "rechunk[aBc123]": ais://mybucket. To monitor, run 'ais show job aBc123'

Rechunk with one explicit flag and one from bucket (prompts for confirmation):

1 $ ais rechunk ais://mybucket --chunk-size 32MiB
2 Rechunk configuration:
3 	chunk_size:     32MiB
4 	objsize_limit:  50MiB
5 Proceed with these values? [Y/N]: y
6 Started "rechunk" xaction "rechunk[dEf456]": ais://mybucket. To monitor, run 'ais show job dEf456'

Rechunk all objects with both flags explicitly provided (no prompt):

1 $ ais rechunk ais://mybucket --chunk-size 16MiB --objsize-limit 50MiB
2 Started "rechunk" xaction "rechunk[gHi789]": ais://mybucket. To monitor, run 'ais show job gHi789'

Rechunk only objects with a specific prefix using embedded prefix in the URI:

1 $ ais rechunk ais://mybucket/images/ --chunk-size 16MiB --objsize-limit 50MiB
2 Started "rechunk" xaction "rechunk[mNo345]": ais://mybucket (prefix: "images/"). To monitor, run 'ais show job mNo345'

Disable chunking and restore all objects as monolithic:

1 $ ais rechunk ais://mybucket --chunk-size 16MiB --objsize-limit 0

Wait for the rechunk job to complete:

1 $ ais rechunk ais://mybucket --chunk-size 16MiB --objsize-limit 50MiB --wait
2 Done.

Note: Regardless of objsize_limit value (even when disabled), objects exceeding the bucket’s maxMonolithicSize configuration will be automatically chunked at that size limit for performance and storage management reasons.

Show extended statistics

All jobs show the number of processed objects(column OBJECTS) and the total size of the data(column BYTES). Both values are cumulative for the entire job’s life-time.

Certain kinds of supported jobs provide extended statistics, including:

Show EC Encoding Statistics

The output contains a few extra columns:

ERRORS - the total number of objects EC failed to encode
QUEUE - the average length of working queue: the average number of objects waiting in the queue when a new EC encode request received. Values close to 0 mean that every object was processed immediately after the request had been received
AVG TIME - the average total processing time for an object: from the moment the object is put to the working queue and to the moment the last encoded slice is sent to another target
ENC TIME - the average amount of time spent on encoding an object.

The extended statistics may give a hint what is the possible bottleneck:

high values in QUEUE - EC is congested and does not have time to process all incoming requests
low values in QUEUE and ENC TIME, but high ones in AVG TIME may mean that the network is slow and a lot of time spent on sending the encoded slices
low values in QUEUE, and ENC TIME close to AVG TIME may mean that the local hardware is overloaded: either local drives or CPUs are overloaded.

Show EC Restoring Statistics

Show information about EC restore requests.

The output contains a few extra columns:

ERRORS - the total number of objects EC failed to restore
QUEUE - the average length of working queue: the average number of objects waiting in the queue when a new EC encode request received. Values close to 0 mean that every object was processed immediately after the request had been received
AVG TIME - the average total processing time for an object: from the moment the object is put to the working queue and to the moment the last encoded slice is sent to another target

Examples using `--top` flag

Options

Flag	Type	Description	Default
`--json`	`bool`	Output details in JSON format	`false`
`--all`	`bool`	If set, additionally displays old, finished xactions	`false`
`--active`	`bool`	If set, displays only running xactions	`false`
`--verbose` `-v`	`bool`	If set, displays all xaction statistics including extended ones. If the number of xaction to display is greater than one, the flag is ignored.	`false`

Certain extended actions have additional CLI. In particular, rebalance stats can also be displayed using the following command:

ais show rebalance

Display details about the most recent rebalance xaction.

Flag	Type	Description	Default
`--refresh`	`duration`	Refresh interval - time duration between reports. The usual unit suffixes are supported and include `m` (for minutes), `s` (seconds), `ms` (milliseconds). Ctrl-C to stop monitoring.
`--all`	`bool`	If set, show all rebalance xactions	`false`

Output of this command differs from the generic xaction output.
