Can you tell us a little more about your setup? I'm running many hundreds of vms on our cluster but I found infiniband is necessary if you have any large amount of io (databases, lots of drive access etc).

You may simply be saturating your io if you only have a single gigabit interface to your storage. Things like NFS mount can direct all your io down one gig link and can be the death knell to your distributed parallel filer.

Hi ,
I recently posted an issue regarding a situation that happen when
say 1 virtual machine images takes down the entire server IO
then the entire storage become slow in such way that noting work
emails , web etc...
gluster gays posted that virtual machine is a main goal of the storage
and that they probebly implement a fair share IO options to avoid this cases .

Can anyone tell me what are the plans for this , it apear to me that
this is 1 of the most important issues on such storage seens it is not
possible to run more then a few virtual machins in parallel .

Many thanks ,
