Hello again,
I have a Raid 6 x16 disk array with 128k stripe size and a 512 byte block size.
So I do;
mkfs.xfs -f -l size=512m -d su=128k,sw=14 /dev/mapper/vg_doofus_data-lv_data
And I get;
meta-data=/dev/mapper/vg_doofus_data-lv_data isize=256 agcount=32, agsize=209428640 blks
= sectsz=512 attr=2, projid32bit=0
data = bsize=4096 blocks=6701716480, imaxpct=5
= sunit=32 swidth=448 blks
naming =version 2 bsize=4096 ascii-ci=0
log =internal log bsize=4096 blocks=131072, version=2
= sectsz=512 sunit=32 blks, lazy-count=1
realtime =none extsz=4096 blocks=0, rtextents=0
All is fine but I was recently made aware of tweaking agsize. So I would like to mess around and iozone any diffs between the above agcount of 32 and whatever agcount changes I may do.
I didn't see any mention of agsize/agcount on the XFS FAQ and would like to know, based on the above, why does XFS think I have 32 allocation groups with the corresponding size? And are these optimal numbers?
Thanks in advance,
- aurf
