Re: [Users] [Gluster-users] Creation of preallocated disk with Gluster replication
Hello Darell, Le 2014-01-08 18:47, Darrell Budic a écrit : Grégoire- I think this is expected behavior. Well, at least the high glusterfsd CPU use during disk creation, anyway. I tried creating a 10 G disk on my test environment and observed similar high CPU usage by glusterfsd. Did the creation on the i5 system, it showed 95%-105% cpu for glusterfsd during creation, with the core2 system running ~35-65% glusterfsd utilization during the creation. Minor disk wait was observed on both systems, < 10% peak and generally < 5%. I imagine my ZFS cached backends helped a lot here. Took about 3 minutes, roughly what I’d expect for the i5’s disk system. Does that mean that glusterfs + ovirt absolutely need to be separated so that changes on glusterfs have no negative impact on VM in production ? Here I got the problem with the creation of a preallocated disk but if tomorrow I want to change the way I replicate glusterfs bricks, I guess I'll have the same issue. Network usage was about 45% of the 1G link. No errors or messages logged to /var/log/messages. If checked with iftop to be more accurate, and I can see it uses more than 95% with my setup. Depending on what your test setup looks like, I’d check my network for packet loss or errors first. I did, I have 0 network error and 0% packet loss (for this latter, I just used ping with the ovirtmgmt interface, which showed 0% packet lost while my server was considered as down by Ovirt). Then look at my storage setup and test pure throughput on the disks to see what you’ve got, maybe see what else is running. Did you use an NFS cluster or a PosixFS cluster for this? I use PosixFS cluster for this. My detailed setup is : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2420 0 @ 1.90GHz (*12), 65GB Ram Disk (both boot and storage) : Perc H710 2To, hardware RAID 1 2 1G ethernet in bonding (failover) Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2609 0 @ 2.40GHz (*8), 64GB Ram Disk (boot + storage) : Perc H310 1G ethernet I'm pretty sure there isn't any problem with the switch between them. To conclude : 1) About the network issue, I think it could be possible to use iptables with QoS rules on specific ports to limit GlusterFS throughput. 2) However, the CPU issue seems to be more difficult to avoid. I guess I just have to review my architecture... Thank you, Regards, Grégoire Leroy ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Re: [Users] Creation of preallocated disk with Gluster replication
Do you happen to notice what is consuming CPU? When I check with top, glusterfs and glusterfsd are the only process who use a significant amount of CPU. Load average is between 5 and 6, and I don't have any started VM. Since the same cluster does both virtualization and storage, a GigE network might get saturated very quickly. Is it possible to separate out the management and data/gluster traffic in this setup? Unfortunately, it's not possible. I only have two hosts, both for virtualization and storage. Why does glusterfs use so much CPU ? About the network traffic, the creation of a pre-allocated disk is not something which absolutely needs to be fast : if it takes 5 minutes, well... it takes 5 minutes. I guess that if there's a way to limit the bandwidth available for glusterfs, it'll still have an impact on production because glusterfs and VM will be in competition for bandwidth, right ? Is there a way to limit the bandwidth only for the creation of a pre-allocated disk ?

When I try to create a VM with a preallocated disk, it uses 100% of the available CPU and bandwidth (I have 1 Gigabit network card). The result is I can't even create a preallocated disk because the engine detects a network failure. I get that kind of messages in /var/log/messages : " Jan 2 14:13:54 localhost sanlock[3811]: 2014-01-02 14:13:54+0100 167737 [3811]: s4 kill 21114 sig 15 count 1 Jan 2 14:13:54 localhost wdmd[3800]: test failed rem 51 now 167737 ping 167718 close 167728 renewal 167657 expire 167737 client 3811 sanlock_ef4978d6-5711-4e01-a0ec-7ffbd9 cdbe5d:1 " And that in the Ovirt Gui : " 2014-janv.-02, 15:35 Operation Add-Disk failed to complete. 2014-janv.-02, 15:35 Storage Pool Manager runs on Host HOST2 (Address: X.X.X.X). 2014-janv.-02, 15:35 Invalid status on Data Center GlusterSewan.

Do you happen to notice what is consuming CPU? Since the same cluster does both virtualization and storage, a GigE network might get saturated very quickly. Is it possible to separate out the management and data/gluster traffic in this setup? Regards, Vijay ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
[Users] Creation of preallocated disk with Gluster replication
Hello, I have a Gluster volume in distributed/replicated mode. I have 2 hosts. When I try to create a VM with a preallocated disk, it uses 100% of the available CPU and bandwidth (I have 1 Gigabit network card). The result is I can't even create a preallocated disk because the engine detects a network failure. I get that kind of messages in /var/log/messages : " Jan 2 14:13:54 localhost sanlock[3811]: 2014-01-02 14:13:54+0100 167737 [3811]: s4 kill 21114 sig 15 count 1 Jan 2 14:13:54 localhost wdmd[3800]: test failed rem 51 now 167737 ping 167718 close 167728 renewal 167657 expire 167737 client 3811 sanlock_ef4978d6-5711-4e01-a0ec-7ffbd9 cdbe5d:1 " And that in the Ovirt Gui : " 2014-janv.-02, 15:35 Operation Add-Disk failed to complete. 2014-janv.-02, 15:35 Storage Pool Manager runs on Host HOST2 (Address: X.X.X.X). 2014-janv.-02, 15:35 Invalid status on Data Center GlusterSewan.
