Subject: SPAM: [PATCH manager] ui: dc summary: fix calculation of shared storage size
Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2024 15:44:32 +0200
Message-ID: <20240730134432.110382-1-igor.thaller@aon.at>

The issue is related to the 'Summary' tab under 'Datacenter' inside a
cluster. To get a steady reading of the storage size data, the frontend
requests the '/api2/json/cluster/resources' every three seconds to
retrieve the necessary data to calculate the used and total storage
size.

The problem occurs when a shared storage is defined and a node goes
offline. As the node is not online, it cannot report the shared storage
size (both used and total) back to the other nodes. The order of the
JSON response is not always the same, so it is possible that the offline
node will appear first. Consequently, the front-end will display the
wrong total and used storage. This is because the shared storage data
has both the maximum disk size and the used disk set to zero when the
node is offline. This causes the total and used space data to be
calculated and displayed incorrectly, leading to fluctuations in the
displayed percentage of used disk space.

To fix this, a conditional check to skip the storage report if its
status is 'unknown' and it is shared was added. This prevents the
unreliable data from being processed.

To test these changes, adjust the 'max_requests' variable in the Perl
script located at '/usr/share/perl5/PVE/Service/pveproxy.pm' to increase
the likelihood of the error to occur. This makes the storage size
fluctuations more frequent. Then compare the storage results (both used
and total sizes) before and after implementing the fix.

Note: Be aware that it takes around one minute for the spike to happen.
