Sunday 13th of October: SSD cache test day

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

 



Hi All,

The Fedora SSD Cache is this sunday October 13th 2013. This Fedora Test Day will focus on bcache based SSD Caching in Fedora 20.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2013-10-13_SSD_Cache

If you're interested in trying out the new bcache SSD caching functionality step by step instructions are available for:

- bcache on physical hardware
- bcache in a virtual machine
- non-root FS on bcache (with or without LVM)
- root FS on bcache (wtih or without LVM)

The objective of this Test day is to demonstrate a working Fedora 20 system using bcache. Te be more specific:

 * The system boots OK; after booting bcache is operating as expected
 * The system updates ("yum update") OK. After updating specifically
   the kernel the system boots OK.
 * The system is bootable when the caching device is disabled.

Although testing on real hardware is closest to "the real thing", testing in a VM may also provide good insights on the proper working of bcache (except for performance).

If you can't make the date of the test day, adding test case results to the wiki anytime next week is fine as well. Though if you do plan on showing up to the test day,
please add your name to the participant list on the wiki, and when the day arrives, pop into #fedora-test-day on freenode and give us a shout! If you can't make the date
of the test day, adding test case results to the wiki anytime next week is fine as well. Though if you do plan on showing up to the test day, add your name to the
participant list on the wiki, and when the day arrives, pop into #fedora-test-day on freenode and give us a shout!

The Wiki page is still under development, so expect some improvements before sunday.

Thanks,
