New question #247018 on Graphite: https://answers.launchpad.net/graphite/+question/247018
Hi, i am currently building a new performance monitoring solution for our VMs. At the moment we have about 2000 VMs, but this will be ramped up soon up to 50000 VMs. The performance collection will be done with collectd. My plan is to start with (A): - one carbon-relay which delegates the performance data to - an arbitrary amount of carbon-cache instances - which all write the data into the same nfs share When more and more VMs are build up i plan to (B): - add more carbon-cache instances - which will write the data into different nfs shares My question: When starting with (A) the carbon-relay will distribute the data between all carbon-cache instances (RELAY_METHOD = consistent-hashing). Now i start adding new carbon-cache instances whith a different nfs share (B). How Iwill the data be distributed? Only the performance data that was not already be distributed to one of the old carbon-cache instances will be distributed to the new carbon-cache instances, is that right? So, just adding more carbon-cache instances with additional nfs share will not immediately improve the performace, right? Is this possible at all?
