Re: [Openstack-operators] Scaling Ceilometer compute agent?
Hello Bill Possible to share how many instance and how many meter per instance you collecting and getting this error ? I guess for scaling purpose , you are talking about this , right http://docs.openstack.org/ha-guide/controller-ha-telemetry.html Regards VM From: Bill Jones Date: Tuesday 14 June 2016 at 18:03 To: "openstack-oper." Subject: [Openstack-operators] Scaling Ceilometer compute agent? Has anyone had any experience with scaling ceilometer compute agents? We're starting to see messages like this in logs for some of our compute agents: > WARNING ceilometer.openstack.common.loopingcall [-] task interval_task at 0x2092cf8> run outlasted interval by 293.25 sec > This is an indication that the compute agent failed to execute its pipeline processing within the allotted interval (in our case 10 min). The result of this is that less instance samples are generated per hour than expected, and this causes billing issues for us due to the way we calculate usage. It looks like we have three options for addressing this: make the pipeline run faster, increase the interval time, or scale the compute agents. I'm investigating the latter. I think I read in the ceilometer architecture docs that the agents are designed to scale, but I don't see anything in the docs on how to facilitate that. Any pointers would be appreciated.

Vahric - We use Ceph for nova ephemeral as well on thousands of VMs and we love it. Fast provisioning of VMs, solid, reliable and flexible. Works great with live-migration. The only time we ever have a problem is an OSD is allowed to get too full. Never let that happen!

[Openstack-operators] Openstack Ceph Backend and Performance Information Sharing
Hello All , For a long time we are testing Ceph from Firefly to Kraken , tried to optimise many things which are very very common I guess like test tcmalloc version 2.1 , 2,4 , jemalloc , setting debugs 0/0 , op_tracker and such others and I believe with out hardware we almost reach to end of the road. Some vendor tests mixed us a lot like samsung http://www.samsung.com/semiconductor/support/tools-utilities/All-Flash-Array -Reference-Design/downloads/Samsung_NVMe_SSDs_and_Red_Hat_Ceph_Storage_CS_20 160712.pdf , DELL Dell PowerEdge R730xd Performance and Sizing Guide for Red Hat <https://www.google.com.tr/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&; uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwiA4Z28_pTSAhXCJZoKHSYVD0AQFggeMAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.comm unity.dell.com%2Ftechcenter%2Fcloud%2Fm%2Fdell_cloud_resources%2F20442913%2F download&usg=AFQjCNGGADYZkbABD_GZ8YMct4E19KSAXA&sig2=YZCEHMq7tnXSpVydMDacIg> and from intel http://www.flashmemorysummit.com/English/Collaterals/Proceedings/2015/201508 13_S303E_Zhang.pdf At the end using 3 replica (Actually most of vendors are testing with 2 but I believe that its very very wrong way to do because when some of failure happen you should wait 300 sec which is configurable but from blogs we understaood that sometimes OSDs can be down and up again because of that I believe very important to set related number but we do not want instances freeze ) with config below with 4K , random and fully write only . I red a lot about OSD and OSD process eating huge CPU , yes it is and we are very well know that we couldn¹t get total of iOPS capacity of each raw SSD drives. My question is , can you pls share almost same or closer config or any config test or production results ? Key is write, not %70 of read % 30 write or full read things Hardware : 6 x Node Each Node Have : 2 Socker CPU 1.8 GHZ each and total 16 core 3 SSD + 12 HDD (SSDs are in journal mode 4 HDD to each SSD) Raid Cards Configured Raid 0 We did not see any performance different with JBOD mode of raid card because of that continued with raid 0 Also raid card write back cache is used because its adding extra IOPS too ! Achieved IOPS : 35 K (Single Client) We tested up to 10 Clients which ceph fairly share this usage like almost 4K for each Test Command : fio --randrepeat=1 --ioengine=libaio --direct=1 --gtod_reduce=1 --name=test --filename=test --bs=4k iodepth=256 --size=1G --numjobs=8 --readwrite=randwrite group_reporting Regards Vahric Muhtaryan ___ OpenStack-operators mailing list OpenStack-operators@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-operators
[Openstack-operators] ceph vs gluster for block
Hello All , For a long time we are testing Ceph and today we also want to test GlusterFS Interesting thing is maybe with single client we can not get IOPS what we get from ceph cluster . (From ceph getting max 35 K IOPS for % 100 random write and gluster gave us 15-17K ) But interesting thing when add additional client to test its get same IOPS with first client means overall performance is doubled , couldn¹t test more client but also interesting things is glusterfs do not use/eat CPU like Ceph , a few percent of CPU is used. I would like to ask with Openstack , anybody use GlusterFS for instance workload ? Anybody used both of them in production and can compare ? Or share experience ?
