NFS Buffering
I have a fedora 13 box on which I have a remote mounted nfs share over a fairly slow (10Mb/s) link. I'm then transferring data onto this share from a different machine using scp. The problem is that after scp reports that it's 100% complete the program will hang for ~20 mins before it will move on to another file. At this point it can't be killed. It looks like the nfs daemon is caching write data (around 2GB of it) which lets scp think its finished when actually there's loads of data sitting in a write buffer. The hanging is presumably the time it takes to flush the buffer (there is a process called nfsiod which is active during this time and df shows data is still being written). Does anyone know how to either make this buffer smaller, or get rid of it all together so the scp can accruately report on its progress?

The bug is closed because there s an updated kernel but no pxe installation images have been made. There s a workaround to solve the problem it s to load broadcom module bedore tg3. is there a way in anaconda to force the load of a module ? I can't make a dvd installation as i have numerous computers with this card with different configuration. and all are in my cobbler server then a network installation is really needed.

Suspend/sleep
Months ago when I started using Fedora 13 from Centos 5.3 one of the reasons was that things just worked. Things like suspend when the laptop lid is closed. Lately starting perhaps six weeks ago the probability of a successful suspension and subsequent wake up seems to be about 50%-60%.

Re: NFS Buffering
On 09/28/2010 07:07 AM, Simon Andrews wrote: I have a fedora 13 box on which I have a remote mounted nfs share over a fairly slow (10Mb/s) link. I'm then transferring data onto this share from a different machine using scp. The problem is that after scp reports that it's 100% complete the program will hang for ~20 mins before it will move on to another file. At this point it can't be killed. It looks like the nfs daemon is caching write data (around 2GB of it) which lets scp think its finished when actually there's loads of data sitting in a write buffer. The hanging is presumably the time it takes to flush the buffer (there is a process called nfsiod which is active during this time and df shows data is still being written). Does anyone know how to either make this buffer smaller, or get rid of it all together so the scp can accruately report on its progress? Thanks Simon. I understand you mean your desktop nfs-mounts a directory exported to your machine by a server over a 10 mb/s link. I understaand you mean that you have write permissions to write to this nfs mounted directory on your machine. I understand that you scp from a third machine (again at 10 mb/s - you did not specify this part) to the nfs mounted directory on YOUR machine. Just to get the data from the third machine to yours before it is even sent to the nfs server): On a 10megabit/s link, only 80% of which is payload data, transferring 2GB (I assume you mean binary GB): .80 * 1000 = 800 bits/s payload data 800 / 8 = 10 bytes/s payload data 2147483648 / 100 = 2147.48 number of seconds it takes to download 2 GB. 2147.48 /60.00 = 35.79 minutes to download 2GB. So, that's close enough to your 20 minutes download time. I am being a bit pessimistic here as to how much of the ether bandwirdth is used for payload data. At 90%, the transfer time comes down to 31 minutes. So, 20 minutes is absolutely miraculous!!!

F13 wifi goes a little crazy (Networkmanager)
I've a strange problem with NetworkManager on my fedora 13. The system is up-to-date and kernel is 2.6.34.7-56.fc13.i686.PAE. Basically, every minute I lost the connection on the wireless interface (wlan0), only for a couple of second, but it's really annoying when I'm using skype, for example. The connection is very simple: it's not secured! I don't have a static ip, so I must use dhcp. I never had any problem with other versions of fedora on this network.

Does anyone know how to either make this buffer smaller, or get rid of it all together so the scp can accruately report on its progress? Thanks Simon. Hey! Simon, Listen: buffering is done by the filesystem internals in collaboration with the block io layer. Once the filesystem commits the write to block io layer, the write call returns to the calling program, and there is not an iota you can do about it! In the case of nfs, buffering is done by the nfsiod. Buffering will be done at both the server AND the client. This is especially noticeable when the nfs client writes onto and nfs mounted filesystem. nfsiod is the helper kernel thead. There will be as many of these as the admin configures the system for. Ditto with the main dispatcher, the nfsd process. The nfsiod is what buffers writes on the client side. If you want the scp to function more synchronously, you need to rewrite scp, so that it calls fsync after each write! This will force scp process to wait for the data to be flushed before the write call returns. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
