No worries. I've checked IO issues using iotop, but ns-slapd only makes fleeting appearances there, so I don't *think* it's IO-bound There are 43 separate slapd threads (according to ' ps -efL | grep -c slapd'). I'd wondered about setting the 389 server as a replica of the production servers, but am not feeling that brave yet! -----Original Message----- From: 389-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:389-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dustin Rice Sent: 31 March 2014 17:59 To: 389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Serious write-performance problems on RHEL6 Ah derp, my mistake, I apparently didn't scroll down far enough. Do you know if the slapd procs are sitting in an IO wait state? When you run a ps -eLf how many slapd threads are there? I'm going through a migration from Sun One 5.2 to 389ds also. You can setup a 389 DS replica of a Sun One master. It works out pretty well. My plan is to slowly replace our Sun One replicas with 389 DS replicas that are tied to a 389DS hub. Once all the Sun One replicas have been replace, I then promote that 389 DS hub to master and we're done.
