Re: Gluster Performance - 12 Gbps SSDs and 10 Gbps NIC

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

 

Hi all
Aravinda, usually I set this in two server env and never get split brain:
gluster vol set VMS cluster.heal-timeout 5
gluster vol heal VMS enable
gluster vol set VMS cluster.quorum-reads false
gluster vol set VMS cluster.quorum-count 1
gluster vol set VMS network.ping-timeout 2
gluster vol set VMS cluster.favorite-child-policy mtime
gluster vol heal VMS granular-entry-heal enable
gluster vol set VMS cluster.data-self-heal-algorithm full
gluster vol set VMS features.shard on

Strahil, in general, I get 0,06ms with 1G dedicated NIC.
My env are very simple, using Proxmox + QEMU/KVM, with 3 or 5 VM.

Hi Aravinda,

Based on the output it’s a ‘replica 3 arbiter 1’ type.

Gilberto,
What’s the latency between the nodes ?

Best Regards,
Strahil Nikolov

Only Replica 2 or Distributed Gluster volumes can be created with two servers. High chance of split brain with Replica 2 compared to Replica 3 volume.

For NFS Ganesha, no issue exporting the volume even if only one server is available. Run NFS Ganesha servers in Gluster server nodes and NFS clients from the network can connect to any NFS Ganesha server.

You can use Haproxy + Keepalived (or any other load balancer) if high availability required for the NFS Ganesha connections (Ex: If a server node goes down, then nfs client can connect to other NFS ganesha server node).

Ah that's nice.
Somebody knows this can be achieved with two servers?

Wow, HUGE improvement with NFS-Ganesha!

sudo systemctl enable --now nfs-ganesha

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo mount -a

fio --name=test --filename=/data/wow --size=1G --readwrite=write

Run status group 0 (all jobs):
  WRITE: bw=2246MiB/s (2355MB/s), 2246MiB/s-2246MiB/s (2355MB/s-2355MB/s), io=1024MiB (1074MB), run=456-456msec

Yeah 2355MB/s is much better than the original 115MB/s

So in the end, I guess FUSE isn't the best choice.

Fuse there some overhead.
Take a look at libgfapi:

Nope, not a caching thing. I've tried multiple different types of fio tests, all produce the same results. Gbps when hitting the disks locally, slow MB\s when hitting the Gluster FUSE mount.

I've been reading up on glustr-ganesha, and will give that a try.

Dismiss my first question: you have SAS 12Gbps SSDs  Sorry!

May ask you which kind of disks you have in this setup? rotational, ssd SAS/SATA, nvme?

Is there a RAID controller with writeback caching?

It seems to me your fio test on local brick has a unclear result due to some caching.

Try something like (you can consider to increase test file size depending of your caching memory) :

fio --size=16G --name=test --filename=/gluster/data/brick/wow --bs=1M --nrfiles=1 --direct=1 --sync=0 --randrepeat=0 --rw=write --refill_buffers --end_fsync=1 --iodepth=200 --ioengine=libaio

Also remember a replica 3 arbiter 1 volume writes synchronously to two data bricks, halving throughput of your network backend.

Try similar fio on gluster mount but I hardly see more than 300MB/s writing sequentially on only one fuse mount even with nvme backend. On the other side, with 4 to 6 clients, you can easily reach 1.5GB/s of aggregate throughput

To start, I think is better to try with default parameters for your replica volume.

Best regards!

Ramon

MTU is already 9000, and as you can see from the IPERF results, I've got a nice, fast connection between the nodes.

Hi,

Let’s try the simple things:

Check if you can use MTU9000 and if it’s possible, set it on the Bond Slaves and the bond devices:

All good there. ~10 Gbps, as expected.

All good there. 2182MB/s =~ 17.5 Gbps. Nice!

Oh no, what's wrong? From 2182MB/s down to only 115MB/s? What am I missing? I'm not expecting the above ~17 Gbps, but I'm thinking it should at least be close(r) to ~10 Gbps.

Any suggestions?
