RAW Devices performance issue

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

 





Dear All,

I am going to install Oracle RAC on two Servers, With shared SAN storage (Servers and Storage is IBM)
OS = RHEL 5u5 x64 bit

And we used multipathing mechanism and created multipathing devices.
i.e. /dev/mapper/mpath1.

Then I created raw device /dev/raw/raw1 of this /dev/mapper/mpath1 Block device as per pre-reqs for Oracle Cluster.

Every thing looks good, But we faced the performance issue as under...

when we run command :
#dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/mpath1 bs=1024 count=1000
the writing rate is approx. 34 MB/s

But If we run command
#dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/raw/raw1 bs=1024 count=1000
the writing rate is very slow like 253 KB/s

Please advice how to tune the performance.



 

Best Regards,
