fs-6.0, please take statedump of client process (on any node) before and after the test, so we can analyze the latency information of each translators. With these information, I hope we will be in a better state to answer the questions. On Wed, Apr 10, 2019 at 3:45 PM Pascal Suter <ma

Re: [Gluster-users] Expanding brick size in glusterfs 3.7.11

2019-04-25 Thread Pascal Suter
I may add to that that i have expanded linux filesystems (xfs and ext4) both via LVM and some by adding disks to a hardware raid. from the OS point of view it does not make a difference, the procedure once the block device on which the filesytem resides is expanded is prettymuch the same and so

Re: [Gluster-users] GlusterFS on ZFS

2019-04-17 Thread Pascal Suter
Hi Cody i'm still new to Gluster myself, so take my input with the necessary skepticism: if you care about performance (and it looks like you do), use zfs mirror pairs and not raidz volumes. in my experience (outside of gluster), raidz pools perform significantly worse than a hardware raid5

Re: [Gluster-users] Samba performance

also i think you should be able to get better performance if you use vfs_glusterfs [1]. From what I understand it's similar to samba what nfs-ganesha does for nfs, it uses the libgfapi directly rather than sharing a fuse-mount [1] https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/current/man-html/vfs_glusterfs

Hi all I am currently testing gluster on a single server. I have three bricks, each a hardware RAID6 volume with thin provisioned LVM that was aligned to the RAID and then formatted with xfs. i've created a distributed volume so that entire files get distributed across my three bricks. fir
