Juz, It helps if you describe the system in more detail. What is the configuration of Squid (squid.conf without the comments) and how are the data store file systems spread over the disks ?
For immediate results, you can reduce the disk cache or even temporarily disable the disk cache. Marcus On 07/24/2014 09:36 AM, RYAN Justin wrote:
Hi, Probably been answered before but my problem is this. We have a esx server out in our providers pop. The server has been in situ for quite sometime. We have noticed that the datastore writes latency has increased to on average 45ms. We know this is bad but have a problem both budgetry and timescale and require a quick solution. We propose to reduce IO load by excluding specific traffic from getting logged, but are now looking on how to achieve this. Understand a change to squid.conf is required plus the use of a access list. Problem being we have inherited this build and there is no real documentation. Holding our hands up, we are not experts and could really do with some community help. Thanks in advance. Juz PRIVACY & CONFIDENTIALITY This e-mail is private and confidential.
