Pull request overview
Adds a new troubleshooting document to help operators diagnose and cap Netty native (direct) memory usage in Ozone daemons (notably DataNode and S3 Gateway), addressing scenarios where RSS grows significantly beyond the JVM heap due to Netty’s pooled direct-buffer allocator.
Changes:
- Documented symptoms and root cause of high native/direct memory usage (Netty pooled allocator behavior).
- Added recommended mitigation via Netty system properties (both unshaded Netty and Ratis-shaded Netty) and how to configure them through
ozone-env.shenv vars. - Provided initial sizing guidance and pointed to relevant Ozone
NettyMetricsfor observability.
