Designing a cluster with ceph and benchmark (ceph vs ext4)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi !

I have failover clusters for some aplications. Generally with 2 members 
configured with Ubuntu + Drbd + Ext4. For example, my IMAP cluster works 
fine with ~ 50k email accounts and my HTTP cluster hosts ~2k sites.

See design here: http://adminlinux.com.br/cluster_design.txt

I would like to provide load balancing instead of just failover. So, I 
would like to use a distributed architecture of the filesystem. As we 
know, Ext4 isn't a distributed filesystem. So wish to use Ceph in my 
clusters.

Any suggestions for design of the cluster with Ubuntu+Ceph?

I built a simple cluster of 2 servers to test simultaneous reading and 
writing with Ceph. My conf:  http://adminlinux.com.br/ceph_conf.txt

But in my simultaneous benchmarks found errors in reading and writing. I 
ran "iozone -t 5 -r 4k -s 2m" simultaneously on both servers in the 
cluster. The performance was poor and had errors like this:

Error in file: Found ?0? Expecting ?6d6d6d6d6d6d6d6d? addr b6600000
Error in file: Position 1060864
Record # 259 Record size 4 kb
where b6600000 loop 0

Performance graphs of benchmark: http://adminlinux.com.br/ceph_bench.html

Can you help me find what I did wrong?

Thanks !
