Re: [Red5] Red5 Edge/Origin + Terracotta Meeting Minutes (2007/9/7)

[Daniel Rossi]

Sorry me again, with this configuration, we have 5 clustered machines  
connecting to a NAS, what would be the best configuration for this in  
this scenario ? One machine is the origin and not attached to the  
load balancer which is also running terracotta, 4 machines running as  
the frontend edge machines and attached to the load balancer ?  They  
are all running 3G P4's and 2G of ram.  Is it possible to run the  
cluster files from the NAS storage itself rather than having seperate  
set of files on  each machine ? This means i just need to update it  
in one spot, but not sure if that will affect performance, especially  
for reads for the files. I am finding some errors at times where  
there is network issues getting the files for some reason.

Hi all,
Orion, Tim and I had a meeting discussing the current status and  
future plan of Red5 Edge/Origin with Terracotta integration. Below  
is the detail.
(1) Deadlock issue: Orion and Tim explained the auto-lock concept  
to me and helped to solve the deadlock issue caused by  
misconfiguration of auto-locks. Now the Edge/Origin Red5 won't get  
deadlocked on Terracotta.
(2) Performance test and tuning: We plan to do performance test and  
tuning in the next step to verify the design and implementation of  
the Edge/Origin prototype. Orion and Tim gave some advice on how to  
do performance test and tuning on Terracotta. Orion will also  
provide several online HW resources for the test. This is very  
helpful for clustering performance test when several machines are  
available to setup the server environment. Great thanks to Orion  
and other Terracotta guys to make this happen!

So we will move forward to test the prototype and do the  
enhancement afterwards.

To all the Red5 users,
Now you can try to run Edge/Origin prototype on Terracotta.  
Theoretically you can run all the servers on one machine: Edge,  
Origin and Terracotta server. But the recommended configuration is  
to put each server to their own machine, especially the Terracotta  
server.
To run the servers, the only difference from the version without  
Terracotta is that you need to start the Edge on Terracotta with  
the configuration file tc-config-edge.xml in the root dir of the  
clustering branch.
Feel free to report issues during your experiment. Thanks!
