RAID 1 Performance (Backups)

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

 



Good Day,

We have some servers that that we have setup RAID 1 with mdadm. The
layout is having one disk in one VMWare Datastore and the other in
another VMWare Datastore. These are RHEL 7 Servers. LVM With EXT4
Filesystems.

Now they seem to function perfectly well without too much performance
impact until we run backups in the evening. Here we see backups
basically taking 5 times as long to complete as they normally would.
We use TSM for backups and it is typically flat file backups.

Please note these Datastores are in different DC's with a big network
link between. Since performance during the day is perfectly fine, we
are a bit lost as to why backups are taking so long.

Any suggestions ?

Regards

Shaun
