> Key: CLOUDSTACK-4855
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-4855
> Project: CloudStack
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the
> default.)
> Components: Management Server
> Affects Versions: pre-4.0.0, 4.1.0, 4.2.0
> Reporter: Koushik Das
> Assignee: Koushik Das
> Fix For: 4.3.0
>
>
> Currently requests to all direct managed HV hosts (direct agents) are handled
> by the direct agent thread pool. The size of the pool is determined by global
> config direct.agent.pool.size defaulted to 500.
> Currently there is no restriction on the number of requests that can be sent
> to a given HV host. The down side is if a lot commands are getting generated
> for some specific hosts (may be there is some issue with the host, the host
> is slow in responding and there is a pile up of outstanding requests), it may
> essentially starve the requests going to other hosts due to unavailability of
> direct agent threads as most of them will be serving a very few hosts.
> The problem being addressed is that a few bad hosts should not affect the
> entire management server. The solution is to localize the impact of the bad
> hosts.
> One such way is to throttle based on the # of outstanding requests on per
> host basis. The outstanding requests will be a % of the direct agent pool
> size.
> This will ensure that the impacted host will be bound by a upper cap on the
> number of threads it can use to process request and not the entire pool.
