Hello, I am using the following setup: 2 CentOS 5.4 i386 servers who both are using Gluster 3.0.2 with the latest FUSE patch. Both servers are server/client and mount /mnt/glusterfs. I've put my Qmail maildir (/home/vpopmail) on /mnt/glusterfs and symlinks to keep the /home/vpopmail link intact. Whenever I use IMAP (dovecot server - squirrelmail/thunderbird client) I see some high load on the server which is receiving the imap request. I just want to check if I got the right settings on both servers running both server/client model: The client: glusterfs.vol: volume remote1 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp option transport.socket.nodelay on option remote-host server1.pcintelligence.nl option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume remote2 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp option transport.socket.nodelay on option remote-host server2.pcintelligence.nl option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume replicate type cluster/replicate subvolumes remote1 remote2 end-volume volume writebehind type performance/write-behind option window-size 4MB subvolumes replicate end-volume volume cache type performance/io-cache option cache-size 512MB subvolumes writebehind end-volume The server: glusterfsd.vol: volume posix type storage/posix option directory /data/export end-volume volume locks type features/locks subvolumes posix end-volume volume brick type performance/io-threads option thread-count 8 subvolumes locks end-volume volume server type protocol/server option transport-type tcp option auth.addr.brick.allow 194.145.200.1* option transport.socket.nodelay on subvolumes brick end-volume Should I change some settings to get a better performance? Servers are running 2 CPU's at 3 Ghz with 1 GB memory. Kind regards, Michiel
