[Ocfs2-users] Slow concurrent actions on the same LVM logicalvolume

You better do the same under more heavy load (you had 0 - 1 active tasks while running this reports).

But look here:
Device:         rrqm/s   wrqm/s   r/s   w/s   rsec/s   wsec/s avgrq-sz avgqu-sz   await   svctm   %util
sdc                  0.00     0.00     4.80  4.80   14.40    4.80          2.00     7.21    1560.12  63.67  61.12


This device is waiting for IO to be completed 60% of the time, doing almost nothing (very littel writing there).  Can you check it first of all?

It may be that you have a bad driver or bad device, which experience long delays during writes. While such thing can be unnoticed on normal file system (because of bufferring), it can cause a sugnificant delays on clustered file system (which wait for IO to be completed in many cases).

      Subject: Re: [Ocfs2-users] Slow concurrent actions on the same LVM logicalvolume

       
      Hi !

      I watched the servers today and noticed that the server load is very high but not much is working on the server:
      server1:
       16:37:11 up 32 min,  1 user,  load average: 6.45, 7.90, 7.45
      server2:
       16:37:19 up 32 min,  4 users,  load average: 9.79, 9.76, 8.26
      i also tried to do some selects on the oracle database today.
      to do a "select count(*) from xyz" where xyz has 120 000 rows it took me about 10 sec. 
      always the process who does the filesystem access is the first one. 
      and every command (ls,du,vgdisplay,lvdisplay,dd,cp,....) which needs access to a ocfs2 filesystem seams like blocking or it seams to me that there is a lock. 
      Can anyone please help me ?

      yours

      Arnold

        There is not really a high server load when writing to the disks but will try it asap. what do you mean with AST ? 
        Can I enable some debuging on ocfs2 ? We have 2 Dell servers with about 4gb of ram each and 2 Dual Core CPUs with 2GHZ each. 
        Can you please describe which tests todo again ? 

        Thx for your help

          Repeat the first test. This time run top on the first server. Which 
          process is eating the cpu? From the time it appears that the second 
          server is waiting for the AST that the first server is slow to send. And
          it could be slow because it may be busy flushing the data to disk.
          How much memory/cpu do these servers have?

          As far as the second test goes, what is the concurrent write performance 
          directly to the LV (minus fs).
