Re: [U2] Virtualizing a Universe server of 100+ users
Thanks to all who responded. We aren't re-using the same machine but it's still nice to know we would experience a 30-40% drop if we were. Looks like we may have to tune the virtual machine to minimize the performance drop... but I'm not at all sure how to estimate how much it will be.

Re: [U2] Virtualizing a Universe server of 100+ users
We don't virtualize a single machine with 100+ users, but we do virtualize several uv machines on a single physical server with 100 users spread across them. From this experience, it is the disk speed that is the critical factor that impacts performance. We have 10K rpm disks with 64MB cache; the virtual machines "feel" very responsive even when running demanding queries or batch jobs across all the vm's simultaneously. Where most sql systems work better with higher throughput, uv systems seem to like better random access (disk) performance. Choose your disk drives based on both factors. And yes, a vm will perform slower than a bare metal installation, so make sure you are not compounding the problem by using slower disk drives. Measure the number of disk I/O's per second, as well as read and write transfer rates per second during peak usage. You will probably need some sort of RAID configuration to spread the workload across several disks to achieve your required performance. rex ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
Re: [U2] Virtualizing a Universe server of 100+ users
Hi Eric, Be prepared for a significant performance drop compared to a bare metal machine. Similar results to what Manu posted our experience has been a 30% to 40% drop of performance. That is if you compare Virtual vs non virtual on the same machine. We tried to get VM Ware specialist to performance tune the virtual machine but could not get anywhere. I think it is a limitation to the disk block size configuration in VMWare. The minimum size you can set is 1MB. I would also be interested to hear from others what type of performance they get out of a VMWare Universe server.

Re: [U2] Virtualizing a Universe server of 100+ users
hi, Badly knowed, UV/NET is a embedded client server module which work over unirpc system. Then when a uv system open a remote uv file ; uv/net start (if not already established) a uv session on the remote server. On remote uv "uvlictool", "port-status", "list-readu" reports uv/net session like phantoms session. Then when uv system READ/WRITE on the remote file, UVNet send a "request" to do it by the remote session. Locks (group and record) are maintined on the remote server linked to the uv net phantom session. UVNET module must be licensed on uv remote system only (where files are adressed). a uv subr is provided to launch a uv/basic on the remote uv ; most powerfull vs. select/readnext/read on a remote file. Manu Wjhonson a écrit : Well for networked UV systems, you would only need group and record locking *if* the UV systems were trying to write to each others hashed files.

There's an example of how the path is formed in the help file. ORION!/u1/filename This example is shown if you type HELP BASIC SYSTEM() . Another example: OPEN "ORION!/u1/user/file" TO FU.ORIONFILE You can type HELP BASIC TIMEOUT to see this info. You can see all of the info in the UV/NET II guide on Rocket's website. Robert Norman .

Hi again, > Well for networked UV systems, you would only need group and record locking > *if* the UV systems were trying to write to each others hashed files. Almost but there is still the possibility of the "remote" system reading a group for which the "local" system has a group write lock and is changing pointers. I have in the past spent many happy hours fixing UV files where a client had accessed the same file from two system using a Unix mounted drive to access the remote file.

There is no group level locking which protects the pointers that link the internal structure of groups. Without group locks, the chances of corrupting a file are very high. Not just losing records but losing the structural integrity of the file.
