Hi
all, I'm
wondering if anybody has any experience running flow-tools on a Linux
cluster. I have a dedicated Sun box
running flow-capture, collecting from around 60 Cisco's campus wide, totaling
over 16 GB of level-6 compressed data per day.
The flows are written to the collector's local storage, and I have
enough space to hold around 12 day's worth of data. My
plan is to have a separate Linux cluster, nfs mounted
to the collector's storage, which runs daily and hourly flow-reports, flow-dscans, and other analyses.
It's not uncommon for a router to collect over 2GB per day, so the
flow-report processes get pretty IO and memory heavy. So
far I've tried this setup with a Mosix cluster, but
the results aren't that great (I'm going to try OpenMosix
to see if it's any better). Mosix is a single system cluster that uses process migration
to achieve load balancing. Has
anybody ever tried this with Mosix, or any other
ideas for a clustering solution? Thanks, Ari |
