Hi...
> Is /apoio04/b1 a scsi/iscsi disk or is it LVM/DM/RAID on top of a > iscsi/scsi disk? /apoio04/ is a RAID1 of two disks accessible via iscsi (in the following tests, I changed the mount point from /apoio04/ to /iscsi04- lun0/ but they are exactly the same). > > Could you set the IO scheduler to noop > echo noop > /sys/block/sdX/queue/scheduler and see if that makes a difference. I checked the definition and I have [r...@core06 ~]# cat /sys/block/sdh/queue/scheduler noop anticipatory deadline [cfq] Now I've changed to [r...@core06 ~]# cat /sys/block/sdh/queue/scheduler [noop] anticipatory deadline cfq and I've run the tests again. This is what I got: [r...@core06 ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/iscsi04-lun0/b1 bs=64k count=125000 125000+0 records in 125000+0 records out 8192000000 bytes (8.2 GB) copied, 470.332 seconds, 17.4 MB/s [r...@core06 ~]# dd if=/dev/zero of=/iscsi04-lun0/b2 bs=128k count=62500 62500+0 records in 62500+0 records out 8192000000 bytes (8.2 GB) copied, 470.973 seconds, 17.4 MB/s Basically, the performance didn't increase :( > And then also run > iscsiadm -m session -P 3 > [r...@core06 ~]# iscsiadm -m session -P 3 iSCSI Transport Class version 2.0-724 iscsiadm version 2.0-868 Target: iqn.1992-01.com.lsi:1535.600a0b80003ad11c00000000490ade2d Current Portal: 10.131.2.14:3260,1 Persistent Portal: 10.131.2.14:3260,1 ********** Interface: ********** Iface Name: default Iface Transport: tcp Iface Initiatorname: iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:8c56e324f294 Iface IPaddress: 10.131.4.6 Iface HWaddress: default Iface Netdev: default SID: 37 iSCSI Connection State: LOGGED IN iSCSI Session State: Unknown Internal iscsid Session State: NO CHANGE ************************ Negotiated iSCSI params: ************************ HeaderDigest: None DataDigest: None MaxRecvDataSegmentLength: 131072 MaxXmitDataSegmentLength: 65536 FirstBurstLength: 8192 MaxBurstLength: 262144 ImmediateData: Yes InitialR2T: Yes MaxOutstandingR2T: 1 ************************ Attached SCSI devices: ************************ Host Number: 38 State: running scsi38 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 0 scsi38 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 1 scsi38 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 2 scsi38 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 3 scsi38 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 4 scsi38 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 5 scsi38 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 31 Current Portal: 10.131.2.13:3260,1 Persistent Portal: 10.131.2.13:3260,1 ********** Interface: ********** Iface Name: default Iface Transport: tcp Iface Initiatorname: iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:8c56e324f294 Iface IPaddress: 10.131.4.6 Iface HWaddress: default Iface Netdev: default SID: 38 iSCSI Connection State: LOGGED IN iSCSI Session State: Unknown Internal iscsid Session State: NO CHANGE ************************ Negotiated iSCSI params: ************************ HeaderDigest: None DataDigest: None MaxRecvDataSegmentLength: 131072 MaxXmitDataSegmentLength: 65536 FirstBurstLength: 8192 MaxBurstLength: 262144 ImmediateData: Yes InitialR2T: Yes MaxOutstandingR2T: 1 ************************ Attached SCSI devices: ************************ Host Number: 39 State: running scsi39 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 0 scsi39 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 1 scsi39 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 2 scsi39 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 3 scsi39 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 4 scsi39 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 5 scsi39 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 31 Current Portal: 10.131.2.16:3260,2 Persistent Portal: 10.131.2.16:3260,2 ********** Interface: ********** Iface Name: default Iface Transport: tcp Iface Initiatorname: iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:8c56e324f294 Iface IPaddress: 10.131.4.6 Iface HWaddress: default Iface Netdev: default SID: 39 iSCSI Connection State: LOGGED IN iSCSI Session State: Unknown Internal iscsid Session State: NO CHANGE ************************ Negotiated iSCSI params: ************************ HeaderDigest: None DataDigest: None MaxRecvDataSegmentLength: 131072 MaxXmitDataSegmentLength: 65536 FirstBurstLength: 8192 MaxBurstLength: 262144 ImmediateData: Yes InitialR2T: Yes MaxOutstandingR2T: 1 ************************ Attached SCSI devices: ************************ Host Number: 40 State: running scsi40 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 0 scsi40 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 1 scsi40 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 2 scsi40 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 3 scsi40 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 4 scsi40 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 5 scsi40 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 31 Current Portal: 10.131.2.15:3260,2 Persistent Portal: 10.131.2.15:3260,2 ********** Interface: ********** Iface Name: default Iface Transport: tcp Iface Initiatorname: iqn.1994-05.com.redhat:8c56e324f294 Iface IPaddress: 10.131.4.6 Iface HWaddress: default Iface Netdev: default SID: 40 iSCSI Connection State: LOGGED IN iSCSI Session State: Unknown Internal iscsid Session State: NO CHANGE ************************ Negotiated iSCSI params: ************************ HeaderDigest: None DataDigest: None MaxRecvDataSegmentLength: 131072 MaxXmitDataSegmentLength: 65536 FirstBurstLength: 8192 MaxBurstLength: 262144 ImmediateData: Yes InitialR2T: Yes MaxOutstandingR2T: 1 ************************ Attached SCSI devices: ************************ Host Number: 41 State: running scsi41 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 0 scsi41 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 1 scsi41 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 2 scsi41 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 3 scsi41 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 4 scsi41 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 5 scsi41 Channel 00 Id 0 Lun: 31 Cheers and thanks Goncalo Borges --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
