# Troubleshooting Gitaly Cluster **(FREE SELF)**
Refer to the information below when troubleshooting Gitaly Cluster (Praefect). For information on troubleshooting Gitaly,
see [Troubleshooting Gitaly](troubleshooting.md).
## Check cluster health
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/-/merge_requests/5688) in GitLab 14.5.
The `check` Praefect sub-command runs a series of checks to determine the health of the Gitaly Cluster.
```shell
gitlab-ctl praefect check
```
The following sections describe the checks that are run.
### Praefect migrations
Because Database migrations must be up to date for Praefect to work correctly, checks if Praefect migrations are up to date.
If this check fails:
1. See the `schema_migrations` table in the database to see which migrations have run.
1. Run `praefect sql-migrate` to bring the migrations up to date.
### Node connectivity and disk access
Checks if Praefect can reach all of its Gitaly nodes, and if each Gitaly node has read and write access to all of its storages.
If this check fails:
1. Confirm the network addresses and tokens are set up correctly:
- In the Praefect configuration.
- In each Gitaly node's configuration.
1. On the Gitaly nodes, check that the `gitaly` process being run as `git`. There might be a permissions issue that is preventing Gitaly from
accessing its storage directories.
1. Confirm that there are no issues with the network that connects Praefect to Gitaly nodes.
### Database read and write access
Checks if Praefect can read from and write to the database.
If this check fails:
1. See if the Praefect database is in recovery mode. In recovery mode, tables may be read only. To check, run:
```sql
select pg_is_in_recovery()
```
1. Confirm that the user that Praefect uses to connect to PostgreSQL has read and write access to the database.
1. See if the database has been placed into read-only mode. To check, run:
```sql
show default_transaction_read_only
```
### Inaccessible repositories
Checks how many repositories are inaccessible because they are missing a primary assignment, or their primary is unavailable.
If this check fails:
1. See if any Gitaly nodes are down. Run `praefect ping-nodes` to check.
1. Check if there is a high load on the Praefect database. If the Praefect database is slow to respond, it can lead health checks failing to persist
to the database, leading Praefect to think nodes are unhealthy.
### Check clock synchronization
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/-/merge_requests/4225) in GitLab 14.8.
Authentication between Praefect and the Gitaly servers requires the server times to be
in sync so the token check succeeds.
This check helps identify the root cause of `permission denied`
[errors being logged by Praefect](troubleshooting.md#permission-denied-errors-appearing-in-gitaly-or-praefect-logs-when-accessing-repositories).
For offline environments where access to public `pool.ntp.org` servers is not possible, the Praefect `check` sub-command fails this
check with an error message similar to:
```plaintext
checking with NTP service at and allowed clock drift 60000ms [correlation_id: <XXX>]
Failed (fatal) error: gitaly node at tcp://[gitlab.example-instance.com]:8075: rpc error: code = DeadlineExceeded desc = context deadline exceeded
```
To resolve this issue, set an environment variable on all Praefect servers to point to an accessible internal NTP server. For example:
```shell
export NTP_HOST=ntp.example.com
```
## Praefect errors in logs
If you receive an error, check `/var/log/gitlab/gitlab-rails/production.log`.
Here are common errors and potential causes:
- 500 response code
- `ActionView::Template::Error (7:permission denied)`
- `praefect['configuration'][:auth][:token]` and `gitlab_rails['gitaly_token']` do not match on the GitLab server.
- `Unable to save project. Error: 7:permission denied`
- Secret token in `praefect['configuration'][:virtual_storage]` on GitLab server does not match the
value in `gitaly['auth_token']` on one or more Gitaly servers.
- 503 response code
- `GRPC::Unavailable (14:failed to connect to all addresses)`
- GitLab was unable to reach Praefect.
- `GRPC::Unavailable (14:all SubCons are in TransientFailure...)`
- Praefect cannot reach one or more of its child Gitaly nodes. Try running
the Praefect connection checker to diagnose.
## Praefect database experiencing high CPU load
Some common reasons for the Praefect database to experience elevated CPU usage include:
- Prometheus metrics scrapes [running an expensive query](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/-/issues/3796). If you have GitLab 14.2
or above, set `praefect['configuration'][:prometheus_exclude_database_from_default_metrics] = true` in `gitlab.rb`.
- [Read distribution caching](praefect.md#reads-distribution-caching) is disabled, increasing the number of queries made to the
database when user traffic is high. Ensure read distribution caching is enabled.
## Determine primary Gitaly node
To determine the primary node of a repository:
- In GitLab 14.6 and later, use the [`praefect metadata`](#view-repository-metadata) subcommand.
- In GitLab 13.12 to GitLab 14.5 with [repository-specific primaries](praefect.md#repository-specific-primary-nodes),
use the [`gitlab:praefect:replicas` Rake task](../raketasks/praefect.md#replica-checksums).
- With legacy election strategies in GitLab 13.12 and earlier, the primary was the same for all repositories in a virtual storage.
To determine the current primary Gitaly node for a specific virtual storage:
- (Recommended) Use the `Shard Primary Election` [Grafana chart](praefect.md#grafana) on the
[`Gitlab Omnibus - Praefect` dashboard](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/grafana-dashboards/-/blob/master/omnibus/praefect.json).
- If you do not have Grafana set up, use the following command on each host of each
Praefect node:
```shell
curl localhost:9652/metrics | grep gitaly_praefect_primaries
```
## View repository metadata
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/-/issues/3481) in GitLab 14.6.
Gitaly Cluster maintains a [metadata database](index.md#components) about the repositories stored on the cluster. Use the `praefect metadata` subcommand
to inspect the metadata for troubleshooting.
You can retrieve a repository's metadata by its Praefect-assigned repository ID:
```shell
sudo /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/praefect -config /var/opt/gitlab/praefect/config.toml metadata -repository-id <repository-id>
```
When the physical path on the physical storage starts with `@cluster`, you can
[find the repository ID in the physical path](index.md#praefect-generated-replica-paths-gitlab-150-and-later).
You can also retrieve a repository's metadata by its virtual storage and relative path:
```shell
sudo /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/praefect -config /var/opt/gitlab/praefect/config.toml metadata -virtual-storage <virtual-storage> -relative-path <relative-path>
```
### Examples
To retrieve the metadata for a repository with a Praefect-assigned repository ID of 1:
```shell
sudo /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/praefect -config /var/opt/gitlab/praefect/config.toml metadata -repository-id 1
```
To retrieve the metadata for a repository with virtual storage `default` and relative path `@hashed/b1/7e/b17ef6d19c7a5b1ee83b907c595526dcb1eb06db8227d650d5dda0a9f4ce8cd9.git`:
```shell
sudo /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/praefect -config /var/opt/gitlab/praefect/config.toml metadata -virtual-storage default -relative-path @hashed/b1/7e/b17ef6d19c7a5b1ee83b907c595526dcb1eb06db8227d650d5dda0a9f4ce8cd9.git
```
Either of these examples retrieve the following metadata for an example repository:
```plaintext
Repository ID: 54771
Virtual Storage: "default"
Relative Path: "@hashed/b1/7e/b17ef6d19c7a5b1ee83b907c595526dcb1eb06db8227d650d5dda0a9f4ce8cd9.git"

### Available metadata
The metadata retrieved by `praefect metadata` includes the fields in the following tables.
| Field | Description |
|:------------------|:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `Repository ID` | Permanent unique ID assigned to the repository by Praefect. Different to the ID GitLab uses for repositories. |
| `Virtual Storage` | Name of the virtual storage the repository is stored in. |
| `Relative Path` | Repository's path in the virtual storage. |
| `Replica Path` | Where on the Gitaly node's disk the repository's replicas are stored. |
| `Primary` | Current primary of the repository. |
| `Generation` | Used by Praefect to track repository changes. Each write in the repository increments the repository's generation. |
| `Replicas` | A list of replicas that exist or are expected to exist. |
For each replica, the following metadata is available:
| `Replicas` Field | Description |
|:-----------------|:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `Storage` | Name of the Gitaly storage that contains the replica. |
| `Assigned` | Indicates whether the replica is expected to exist in the storage. Can be `false` if a Gitaly node is removed from the cluster or if the storage contains an extra copy after the repository's replication factor was decreased. |
| `Generation` | Latest confirmed generation of the replica. It indicates:<br><br>- The replica is fully up to date if the generation matches the repository's generation.<br>- The replica is outdated if the replica's generation is less than the repository's generation.<br>- `replica not yet created` if the replica does not yet exist at all on the storage. |
| `Healthy` | Indicates whether the Gitaly node that is hosting this replica is considered healthy by the consensus of Praefect nodes. |
| `Valid Primary` | Indicates whether the replica is fit to serve as the primary node. If the repository's primary is not a valid primary, a failover occurs on the next write to the repository if there is another replica that is a valid primary. A replica is a valid primary if:<br><br>- It is stored on a healthy Gitaly node.<br>- It is fully up to date.<br>- It is not targeted by a pending deletion job from decreasing replication factor.<br>- It is assigned. |
| `Verified At` | Indicates last successful verification of the replica by the [verification worker](praefect.md#repository-verification). If the replica has not yet been verified, `unverified` is displayed in place of the last successful verification time. Introduced in GitLab 15.0. |
### Command fails with 'repository not found'
If the supplied value for `-virtual-storage` is incorrect, the command returns the following error:
```plaintext
get metadata: rpc error: code = NotFound desc = repository not found
```
The documented examples specify `-virtual-storage default`. Check the Praefect server setting `praefect['configuration'][:virtual_storage]` in `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`.
## Check that repositories are in sync
Is [some cases](index.md#known-issues) the Praefect database can get out of sync with the underlying Gitaly nodes. To check that
a given repository is fully synced on all nodes, run the [`gitlab:praefect:replicas` Rake task](../raketasks/praefect.md#replica-checksums) on your Rails node.
This Rake task checksums the repository on all Gitaly nodes.
The [Praefect `dataloss`](recovery.md#check-for-data-loss) command only checks the state of the repository in the Praefect database, and cannot
be relied to detect sync problems in this scenario.
## Relation does not exist errors
By default Praefect database tables are created automatically by `gitlab-ctl reconfigure` task.
However, the Praefect database tables are not created on initial reconfigure and can throw
errors that relations do not exist if either:
- The `gitlab-ctl reconfigure` command isn't executed.
- Errors occur during the execution.
For example:
- `ERROR: relation "node_status" does not exist at character 13`
- `ERROR: relation "replication_queue_lock" does not exist at character 40`
- This error:
```json
{"level":"error","msg":"Error updating node: pq: relation \"node_status\" does not exist","pid":210882,"praefectName":"gitlab1x4m:0.0.0.0:2305","time":"2021-04-01T19:26:19.473Z","virtual_storage":"praefect-cluster-1"}
```
To solve this, the database schema migration can be done using `sql-migrate` sub-command of
the `praefect` command:
```shell
$ sudo /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/praefect -config /var/opt/gitlab/praefect/config.toml sql-migrate
praefect sql-migrate: OK (applied 21 migrations)
```
## Requests fail with 'repository scoped: invalid Repository' errors
This indicates that the virtual storage name used in the
[Praefect configuration](praefect.md#praefect) does not match the storage name used in
[`gitaly['configuration'][:storage][<index>][:name]` setting](praefect.md#gitaly) for GitLab.
Resolve this by matching the virtual storage names used in Praefect and GitLab configuration.
## Gitaly Cluster performance issues on cloud platforms
Praefect does not require a lot of CPU or memory, and can run on small virtual machines.
Cloud services may place other limits on the resources that small VMs can use, such as
disk IO and network traffic.
Praefect nodes generate a lot of network traffic. The following symptoms can be observed if their network bandwidth has
been throttled by the cloud service:
- Poor performance of Git operations.
- High network latency.
- High memory use by Praefect.
Possible solutions:
- Provision larger VMs to gain access to larger network traffic allowances.
- Use your cloud service's monitoring and logging to check that the Praefect nodes are not exhausting their traffic allowances.
## `gitlab-ctl reconfigure` fails with error: `STDOUT: praefect: configuration error: error reading config file: toml: cannot store TOML string into a Go int`
This error occurs when `praefect['database_port']` or `praefect['database_direct_port']` are configured as a string instead of an integer.
