Here is an example from another server. As you can see, /cache0 seems to be getting very little of the data on 2 different servers. Found out of the range I would assume based on their storage size. I am curious if my choices for L1/L2 effect what sized files go where? (like Coss seems to do) Also, I think this has been asked before, but what criteria should be used to decide the settings for L1/L2? I think the defaults are based on much smaller disks, but does that matter? It would be great if some math for this was in the .default file to help. It seems like my testing of different sizes has resulted in different amounts of storage utilization some how. Any thoughts on this most appreciated! server 1 # AUFS # cache_dir aufs Directory-Name Mbytes L1 L2 [options] cache_dir aufs /cache0 24000 32 256 cache_dir aufs /cache1 90000 64 768 cache_dir aufs /cache2 90000 64 768 cache_dir aufs /cache3 90000 64 768 /dev/ad4s1h.journal 38G 16M 35G 0% /cache0 /dev/ad6s1e.journal 133G 62G 60G 51% /cache1 /dev/ad8s1e.journal 133G 62G 60G 51% /cache2 /dev/ad10s1e.journal 133G 62G 60G 51% /cache3 server 2 # AUFS # cache_dir aufs Directory-Name Mbytes L1 L2 [options] cache_dir aufs /cache0 24000 32 128 cache_dir aufs /cache1 90000 64 256 cache_dir aufs /cache2 90000 64 256 cache_dir aufs /cache3 90000 64 256 /dev/ad4s1h.journal 38G 8.1M 35G 0% /cache0 /dev/ad6s1e.journal 133G 49G 73G 40% /cache1 /dev/ad8s1e.journal 133G 49G 73G 40% /cache2 /dev/ad10s1e.journal 133G 49G 73G 40% /cache3 # 'Mbytes' is the amount of disk space (MB) to use under this # directory.
