GitHub user leo79901 closed a discussion: Storage support and performance
Hi, I am new to Cloudstack and I have successfully installed and run VMs with NFS. Now I have a question and need help. To confirm the performance and stability, we are currently using storages such as Dell Unity 380 or Netapp AFF250 with FC-SAN ports. Through testing, I found that I can use these storages in three ways with Cloudstack: 1. Use the NFS port from the storage. 2. Use the storage as a local disk via SAN. 3. Use the storage as a shared mount point with OCFS2 or GFS via SAN. (According to the official documentation, I guess, because I haven't achieved it.) The third option requires installing and maintaining a cluster file system, which is so difficult to use and maintain. The second option cannot enable high availability for VMs and is not suitable for business-critical applications. The first option is the most useful for me, but I am very cautious about its performance. Can it be used for a large database like PostgreSQL? Or which type do you usually use to support databases? Thanks a lot. GitHub link: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/discussions/9919 ---- This is an automatically sent email for users@cloudstack.apache.org.
