Hi List,
I Searching for advice from somebody, who use Legacy client like ESXi with Ceph
I try to build High-performance fault-tolerant storage with Ceph 0.94
In production i have 50+ TB of VMs (~800 VMs)
8 NFS servers each:
2xIntel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 v2 @ 2.10GHz
12xSeagate ST2000NM0023
1xLSI Nytro™ MegaRAID® NMR 8110-4i
96 GB of RAM
4x 1 GBE links in Balance-ALB mode (I don't have problem with network
throughput)
Now in lab. i have build 3 node cluster like:
Kernel 4.2
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU 5130 @ 2.00GHz
16 Gb of RAM
6xSeagate ST2000NM0033
2x 1GBE in Balance-ALB
i.e. each node is a MON and 6 OSDs
Config like:
osd journal size = 16384
osd pool default size = 2
osd pool default min size = 2
osd pool default pg num = 256
osd pool default pgp num = 256
osd crush chooseleaf type = 1
filestore max sync interval = 180
For attach RBD Storage to ESXi i create a 2 VMs:
2 cores
2 GB RAM
Kernel 4.3
Each vm map big RBD volume and proxy it by LIO to ESXi
ESXi see VMs like iSCSI Target server in Active/Passive mode
RBD created with --image-shared and --image-format 2 keys
My Questions:
1. I have architecture problem?
2. May be you have ideas?
3. ESXi working with iSCSI storage very slow(30-60 Mb/s read/write),
but this is can be a ESXi problem, later i will test this with more
modern Hypervisor server
4. Proxy VMs working not too bad with storage, but fio shows too low numbers:
[global]
size=128g # File size
filename=/storage/testfile.fio
numjobs=1 # One tread
runtime=600 # 10m for each test
ioengine=libaio # Use async io
# Pseude random data, can be compressed by 15%
buffer_compress_percentage=15
overwrite=1 # Overwrite data in file
end_fsync=1 # Doing fsync, at the and of test, for sync OS buffers
direct=1 # Bypass OS cache
startdelay=30 # Pause between tests
bs=4k # Block size for io requests
iodepth=64 # Count of IO request, what can be requested asynchronously
rw=randrw # Random Read/Write

By me expirience with ScaleIO, must get on proxy node numbers like ~1000 IOPs
I can provide full FIO config and logs if it needed,
i just try to fix perfomance problem and search for advice
5. May be i must change my FIO config?
6. May be i missing something?
If someone have a expirience with similar solutions, story and links a
welcomed -.-

Have a nice day,
Timofey.
