Well, as for me, VM-s are not very impacted by
healing process. At least the munin server running with pretty
high load (average rarely goes below 0,9 :) )had no problems. To
create some more load I've made a copy of 590 MB file on the
VM-s disk, It took 22 seconds. Which is ca 27 MB /sec or 214
Mbps/sec
Servers are connected via 10 gbit network. Proxmox client
is connected to the server with separate 1 gbps interface. We
are thinking of moving it to 10gbps also.
Here are some heal info which is pretty confusing.
right after 1st server restored it connection, it was
pretty clear:
root@stor1:~# gluster volume heal
HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster info
Brick stor1:/exports/HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster/2TB/
/images/124/vm-124-disk-1.qcow2 - Possibly undergoing
heal
Number of entries: 1
Brick stor2:/exports/HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster/2TB/
/images/124/vm-124-disk-1.qcow2 - Possibly undergoing
heal
/images/112/vm-112-disk-1.raw - Possibly undergoing heal
Number of entries: 2
some time later is says
root@stor1:~# gluster volume heal
HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster info
Brick stor1:/exports/HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster/2TB/
Number of entries: 0
Brick stor2:/exports/HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster/2TB/
Number of entries: 0
while I can still see traffic between servers and still
there was no messages about healing process completion.
