[Gluster-users] Glusterfs & QEMU in VMWARE

2014-04-03 Thread Daniel
Hi Carlos, I know your working with Glusterfs in VMWARE and about to embark on the QEMU integration. I was unable to get QEMU installed correctly because virtualisation technology was not enabled. I have come across this blog explaining how to set that up: http://thetechnologychronicle.

Just another thing i noticed: when i mount the volume as nfs on linux and i do a: find . i get -no- errors at all! it seems to me the issue i'm expericencing on linux and windows is related to the permissions of the files. Whenever nfs tries to read the permissions of a file it fails a lot of th

I second that comment ! Boy, I was chasing ghosts until very recently, regarding disk configurations (physical RAID). I had a 4 x 1 TB SAS disks, configured as RAID5 on a Dell PERC 6, and thought that would be good enough. My network throughput would not go over 280 Mbps and I was blaming Linux.

Hey David, Can you provide the qemu command to run each of them? What's your gluster/disk/network layout look like? Depending on your disk and network setup you may be hitting a bottleneck there that would prevent gfapi from performing at capacity. Lots of options here that could impact thin

[Gluster-users] No performance difference using libgfapi?

2014-04-03 Thread Dave Christianson
Good Morning, In my earlier experience invoking a VM using qemu/libgfapi, I reported that it was noticeably faster than the same VM invoked from libvirt using a FUSE mount; however, this was erroneous as the qemu/libgfapi-invoked image was created using 2x the RAM and cpu's... So, invoking the im

Try mounting like this: mount -t nfs -o rw,async,vers=3,rsize=65536,wsize=65536,noatime,nodiratime localhost:/caviar_data11 /media Try to test with fresh files, and not necessarily already existing ones. Then the existing ones. Let's see what it tells us. On Thu, Apr 3, 2014 at 11:05 AM, VAN C
