Hi All, We're on migration stage to a new 2-node active/active cluster with shared iSCSI storage,? everything is ready, but we are in the process of I/O testing, before we going to in production. Cluster info: 2 nodes with CentOS 7.4 balancer ( keepalived + ldirectord ), 2 dovecot directors, 2 dovecot IMAP backends, 2 Postfix SMTP, gfs2 ( corosync + dlm ), LMTP between Postfix and Dovecot directors ( proxy ) and Dovecot backends. Everything seems normal, the users are mapped to dovecot backends, the balancers and the directors are working properly. The measurements were created under the following conditions : - operating system : CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (Core)- virtual server (KVM) - (2 cores per virtual socket) and 4 GB RAM - RAID 10 ( 6 x 2TB Seagate ST2000NX0273 SAS 7200 RPM ( iSCSI SAN Infrotrend Storage DS 4024 ), partition 5.45 TB formatted with gfs2. - Dovecot 2.2.10 - imaptest v.1.0.0 We run a test with ./imaptest userfile=users.txt mbox=dovecot-crlf secs=300 clients=50 append=100,0 logout=0 msgs=10000000, part of the output is that, but we can't understand what mean these values, anyone who has experience with imaptest can explain what they mean? 100%? 50%? 50% 100% 100% 100%? 50% 100% 100% 100% ????????????????????????? 30%??????????????????? ? ?? 0? 223? 216??? 0? 442? 657? 219? 218? 443? 438? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 229? 212??? 0? 418? 596? 194? 224? 428? 424? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 217? 226??? 0? 436? 632? 227? 223? 429? 428? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 214? 226??? 0? 432? 644? 207? 193? 429? 435? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 213? 204??? 0? 414? 587? 209? 213? 414? 417? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 195? 206??? 0? 427? 611? 213? 203? 426? 420? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 225? 200??? 0? 435? 642? 215? 226? 439? 445? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 229? 194??? 0? 441? 637? 223? 213? 441? 436? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 213? 219??? 0? 434? 616? 212? 232? 431? 428? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 210? 213??? 0? 427? 622? 203? 219? 434? 440? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 112? 113??? 0?? 35?? 30?? 30?? 56?? 87? 111 ms/cmd avg Logi List Stat Sele Fetc Fet2 Stor Dele Expu Appe 100%? 50%? 50% 100% 100% 100%? 50% 100% 100% 100% ????????????????????????? 30%??????????????????? ? ?? 0? 231? 246??? 0? 443? 622? 204? 211? 444? 440? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 215? 211??? 0? 431? 601? 194? 219? 428? 430? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 230? 228??? 0? 445? 626? 216? 235? 445? 440? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 218? 234??? 0? 429? 624? 182? 225? 420? 428? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 223? 222??? 0? 427? 640? 214? 215? 430? 431? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 210? 219??? 0? 424? 582? 201? 213? 433? 428? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 198? 208??? 0? 418? 579? 212? 210? 416? 412? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 221? 211??? 0? 419? 617? 209? 215? 418? 420? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 208? 196??? 0? 405? 566? 223? 189? 413? 413? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 215? 244??? 0? 441? 639? 198? 212? 431? 435? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 115? 114??? 0?? 35?? 30?? 30?? 57?? 87? 112 ms/cmd avg Logi List Stat Sele Fetc Fet2 Stor Dele Expu Appe 100%? 50%? 50% 100% 100% 100%? 50% 100% 100% 100% ????????????????????????? 30%??????????????????? ? ?? 0? 199? 219??? 0? 422? 608? 206? 205? 424? 420? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 214? 206??? 0? 429? 616? 209? 208? 432? 435? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 227? 204??? 0? 413? 583? 200? 213? 412? 410? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 192? 214??? 0? 416? 609? 212? 219? 411? 415? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 212? 215??? 0? 426? 625? 204? 225? 434? 428? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 202? 209??? 0? 423? 585? 224? 197? 415? 421? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 216? 221??? 0? 422? 599? 190? 197? 427? 426? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 208? 207??? 0? 414? 579? 209? 211? 414? 410? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 205? 211??? 0? 432? 616? 212? 213? 423? 427? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 225? 207??? 0? 432? 642? 208? 215? 436? 434? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 115? 115??? 0?? 36?? 31?? 32?? 59?? 89? 113 ms/cmd avg Logi List Stat Sele Fetc Fet2 Stor Dele Expu Appe 100%? 50%? 50% 100% 100% 100%? 50% 100% 100% 100% ????????????????????????? 30%??????????????????? ? ?? 0? 211? 216??? 0? 431? 614? 212? 221? 437? 439? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 165? 159??? 0? 324? 487? 160? 148? 322? 315? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 225? 199??? 0? 406? 568? 215? 209? 403? 410? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 213? 217??? 0? 441? 617? 202? 220? 448? 442? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 221? 230??? 0? 439? 609? 229? 216? 428? 437? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 227? 211??? 0? 429? 595? 210? 206? 432? 430? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 196? 218??? 0? 423? 619? 209? 207? 425? 419? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 218? 194??? 0? 422? 596? 199? 212? 417? 422? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 223? 213??? 0? 427? 599? 221? 220? 434? 432? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 185? 203??? 0? 405? 558? 226? 211? 399? 403? 50/ 50 ?? 0? 118? 118??? 0?? 37?? 32?? 31?? 58?? 91? 116 ms/cmd avg Totals: Logi List Stat Sele Fetc Fet2 Stor Dele Expu Appe 100%? 50%? 50% 100% 100% 100%? 50% 100% 100% 100% ????????????????????????? 30%??????????????????? ? ? 50 61115 61109?? 50 122229 174619 59582 60969 122229 122229 Both nod?s pick up load average about 20-30 and io wait 14-20%. top - 16:34:50 up 7 days,? 1:35,? 1 user,? load average: 22.22, 9.18, 3.47 Tasks: 244 total,?? 4 running, 240 sleeping,?? 0 stopped,?? 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 28.8 us, 29.8 sy,? 0.0 ni, 16.4 id, 14.9 wa,? 0.0 hi, 10.1 si,? 0.0 st KiB Mem :? 4013876 total,?? 134212 free,? 1083648 used,? 2796016 buff/cache KiB Swap:? 6292476 total,? 5974836 free,?? 317640 used.? 2449504 avail Mem Do you think that's normal? ? ?his test is only for 50 users, if run it for 100 have many stalled commands...
