Debian Jessie (8) qemu-kvm VM and glusterfs as backend storage

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

 



Hi,

Are there any issues with debian8 and glusterfs?


Got this setup:
1. promox 3.4
2. gluster 3.5.3 both server and client (I use gluster repo on proxmox server)
3. HA gluster volume

What I'm trying to do:
task: create a VM with debian 8, using glusterfs HA volume over 1G network as a place for VM disk file
result: 
a) using raw file format - installation process takes ages (6 hours), but when finished, VM looks weird: packages installations go slowly (downloads fast, but installs slow). Same time getting files over internet gives me usual speed (around 96MB/s, yes, I'm on 1G connection)
b) Using qcow format installation process randomly stops at random step: getting packages from the repository or installing packages after donwnloaded them ...

c) If i convert VM  with RAW file format to template and then create a VM using this template, but selecting qcow format, VM runs smoothly.

Meanwhile, there are lots of VMs on the same gluster storage (debian7, centos6, ubuntu) running without any problems.

I've started topic on proxmox forum, but devs saying, it should be upto glusterfs :(

Any advice or experiences? 


PS
installing deb8 on local storage goes well, without any problems.
installing deb7 on the same setup (same VM even, just another virtual driver) is ok.

Roman.
