Nobody is currently working on directory split.  There are a number of other 
DNE optimizations that are underway (mostly internal code, locking, and 
recovery improvements without much "visible" to the outside world).

The main feature in progress on the metadata side is the metadata writeback 
cache (WBC) that will greatly improve single-client workloads in a single 
directory tree (e.g. untar and then build/process files in that tree).   That 
should help significantly with genomics and machine learning workloads that 
have this kind of usage pattern.

Cheers, Andreas

Yes, it will.  The agenda is being finalized as we speak, and will be
posted soon.

We have an interesting agenda lined up - hope to see you all in San Diego!

Re: [lustre-discuss] Configuring LustreFS Over DRBD

2023-03-24 Thread Thomas Roth via lustre-discuss

Hi Shambhu,

I also think active-active is not possible here - two NIDs for the same target? - but we have been running our MDTs on top of DRBD, which works quite 
well. The last time I compared this setup against a mirror of storage targets, DRBD was actually a bit faster.

And it might improve if you use protocol B or A instead of C.

Regards,
Thomas

I am trying to configure a clustered file system over DRBD software so that
if we mount a file system just like LustreFS over DRBD set -up in dual
primary mode it can provide us with the real time replication of data . Can
I configure lustre file system over DRBD in redhat 8.7 ...
If yes, how can it be configured ?


Waiting for your supporting response.
