Hello,
I'm driving some experiments on grid'5000 with GlusterFS 3.2 and, as a
first point, i've been unable to start a volume featuring 128bricks (64 ok)
Then, due to the round-robin scheduler, as the number of nodes increase
(every node is also a brick), the performance of an application on an
individual node decrease!
So my question is : how to STOP the round-robin distribution of files
over the bricks within a volume ?
*** Setup ***
- i'm using glusterfs3.2 from source
- every node is both a client node and a brick (storage)
Commands :
- gluster peer probe <each of the 128nodes>
- gluster volume create myVolume transport tcp <128 bricks:/storage>
- gluster volume start myVolume (fails with 128 bricks!)
- mount -t glusterfs ...... on all nodes
Feel free to tell me how to improve things
François
