So I have installed XCP 1.6 and am having trouble getting bonding to
perform. This bond is for my NFS shared SR. Previously with Ubuntu + xcp
I was able to get it to work well but I did that at the Linux level and
pif-forgot the NICs. I tried doing the same with XCP 1.6 but I kept
getting an error trying to load the bonding kernel module so I
pif-introduce the NICs back and set up the bond using xe instead.
I created my bond with the following:
ETH1=`xe pif-list device=eth0 --minimal`
ETH2=`xe pif-list device=eth1 --minimal`
NETID=`xe network-create name-label=bond1`
xe bond-create network-uuid=$NETID pif-uuids=$ETH1,$ETH2
BONDID=`xe pif-list device=bond1 --minimal`
xe pif-reconfigure-ip uuid=$BONDID mode=static IP=192.168.200.1
netmask=255.255.255.0
xe pif-param-set uuid=$BONDID other-config:bond-mode=lacp
other-config:bond-hashing-algorithm=tcpudp_ports
xe pif-plug uuid=$BONDID
xe pif-reconfigure-ip uuid=$ETH1 mode=none
xe pif-reconfigure-ip uuid=$ETH2 mode=none
I do not see /proc/net/bonding so looks like it is ovs that manages this.
According to ovs:
# ovs-appctl bond/show bond1
bond_mode: balance-tcp
bond-hash-algorithm: balance-tcp
bond-hash-basis: 0
updelay: 31000 ms
downdelay: 200 ms
next rebalance: 709579 ms
lacp_negotiated: true
slave eth1: enabled
active slave
may_enable: true
hash 0: 0 kB load
hash 81: 1382 kB load
hash 85: 2419 kB load
hash 157: 0 kB load
hash 189: 2378 kB load
hash 253: 0 kB load
slave eth0: enabled
may_enable: true
hash 89: 0 kB load
hash 222: 4069129 kB load
So as you can see all my traffic is going out a single NIC. Is there a
different bond-hash-algorithm I should use?
Is it possible to enable the kernel bonding module? This is what I get:
# modprobe bonding
FATAL: Error inserting bonding
(/lib/modules/2.6.32.43-0.4.1.xs1.6.10.734.170748xen/kernel/drivers/net/bonding/bonding.ko):
Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
# dmesg | grep bond
[ 4297.921408] bonding: Unknown symbol
br_send_gratuitous_switch_learning_packet
I am using a dell 5524 switch that is only used for NFS and not attached to
the rest of my network. I have setup LACP on it and the NFS server is
connected to one of its 10Gbe ports.
thanks,
Carlos
