You may try to disable dynamic sync rate by setting "c-plan-ahead" to 0 and
increase "max-buffers". That's the only way which helped me to get reasonable
sync rate with 100GigE connection.
net {
...
max-buffers 32K;
# max-epoch-size 18K;
}
disk {
...
c-plan-ahead 0;
}

Subject: [DRBD-user] slow sync speed
Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2018 14:57:02 +0100
Hi all,
I'm trying out DRBD Pacemaker HA Cluster on Proxmox 5.2
I have 2 identical servers connected with 2 x 1 Gbps links in bond_mode
balance-rr.
The bond is working fine; I get a transfer rate of 150 MB/s with scp.
Following this guide:
https://www.theurbanpenguin.com/drbd-pacemaker-ha-cluster-ubuntu-16-04/ was
going smoothly up until:
drbdadm -- --overwrite-data-of-peer primary r0/0
cat /proc/drbdversion: 8.4.10 (api:1/proto:86-101)srcversion:
17A0C3A0AF9492ED4B9A418 0: cs:SyncSource ro:Primary/Secondary
ds:UpToDate/Inconsistent C r----- ns:10944 nr:0 dw:0 dr:10992 al:8 bm:0
lo:0 pe:0 ua:0 ap:0 ep:1 wo:f oos:3898301536 [>....................]
sync'ed: 0.1% (3806932/3806944)M finish: 483:25:13 speed: 2,188 (2,188)
K/sec
The transfer rate is horribly slow and at this pace it's going to take 20 days
for two 4 TB volumes to sync!
That's almost 15 times slower comparing with the guide video (8:30):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQGi8Nf0kVc
The volumes have been zeroed and contain no live data yet.
My sdb disks are logical drives (hardware RAID) set up as RAID50 with the
defaults:
Strip size: 128 KBAccess policy: RWRead policy: NormalWrite policy: Write Back
with BBUIO policy: DirectDrive Cache: DisableDisable BGI: No
Performance looks good when tested with hdparm:
hdparm -tT /dev/sdb1
/dev/sdb1: Timing cached reads: 15056 MB in 1.99 seconds = 7550.46 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 2100 MB in 3.00 seconds = 699.81 MB/sec
The volumes have been zeroed and contain no live data yet.
It seems to be a problem with default DRBD settings.
Can anybody recommend optimal tweaks specific to my environment?
Regards,Adam
