Hi, we did not solve the performance issue yet. However we could improve the responsiveness of the system. We no longer get timeouts and reenabled pacemaker. The problem that lead to an unresponsive system was that Ubuntu 12.04 LTS uses the cfq I/O-Scheduler by default. Ubuntu 10.04 LTS used t

Hi, we have a two node setup with drbd below LVM and an Ext4 filesystem that is shared vi NFS. The system shows low performance and lots of timeouts resulting in unnecessary failovers from pacemaker. The connection between both nodes is capable of 1 GByte/s as shown by iperf. The network betwe
