Hello,

I am using the following setup:

2 CentOS 5.4 i386 servers who both are using Gluster 3.0.2 with the latest FUSE patch.
Both servers are server/client and mount /mnt/glusterfs.
I've put my Qmail maildir (/home/vpopmail) on /mnt/glusterfs and symlinks to keep the /home/vpopmail link intact. Whenever I use IMAP (dovecot server - squirrelmail/thunderbird client) I see some high load on the server which is receiving the imap request.

I just want to check if I got the right settings on both servers running both server/client model:


The client: glusterfs.vol:

volume remote1
  type protocol/client
  option transport-type tcp
  option transport.socket.nodelay on
  option remote-host server1.pcintelligence.nl
  option remote-subvolume brick
end-volume

volume remote2
  type protocol/client
  option transport-type tcp
option transport.socket.nodelay on
  option remote-host server2.pcintelligence.nl
  option remote-subvolume brick
end-volume

volume replicate
  type cluster/replicate
  subvolumes remote1 remote2
end-volume

volume writebehind
  type performance/write-behind
  option window-size 4MB
  subvolumes replicate
end-volume

volume cache
  type performance/io-cache
  option cache-size 512MB
  subvolumes writebehind
end-volume


The server: glusterfsd.vol:

volume posix
  type storage/posix
  option directory /data/export
end-volume

volume locks
  type features/locks
  subvolumes posix
end-volume

volume brick
  type performance/io-threads
  option thread-count 8
  subvolumes locks
end-volume

volume server
  type protocol/server
  option transport-type tcp
  option auth.addr.brick.allow 194.145.200.1*
  option transport.socket.nodelay on
  subvolumes brick
end-volume


Should I change some settings to get a better performance?

Servers are running 2 CPU's at 3 Ghz with 1 GB memory.

Kind regards,

Michiel
