[Gluster-users] [ovirt-users] Re: VM disk corruption with LSM on Gluster
This is needed to prevent any inconsistencies stemming from buffered writes/caching file data during live VM migration. Besides, for Gluster to truly honor direct-io behavior in qemu's 'cache=none' mode (which is what oVirt uses), one needs to turn on performance.strict-o-direct and disable remote-dio. -Krutika On Wed, Mar 27, 2019 at 12:24 PM Leo David <leoalex at gmail.com> wrote:> Hi, > I can confirm that after setting these two options, I haven't encountered > disk corruptions anymore. > The downside, is that at least for me it had a pretty big impact on > performance. > The iops really went down - performing inside vm fio tests. > > On Wed, Mar 27, 2019, 07:03 Krutika Dhananjay <kdhananj at redhat.com> wrote: > >> Could you enable strict-o-direct and disable remote-dio on the src volume >> as well, restart the vms on "old" and retry migration? >> >> # gluster volume set <VOLNAME> performance.strict-o-direct on >> # gluster volume set <VOLNAME> network.remote-dio off >> >> -Krutika >> >> On Tue, Mar 26, 2019 at 10:32 PM Sander Hoentjen <sander at hoentjen.eu> >> wrote: >> >>> On 26-03-19 14:23, Sahina Bose wrote: >>> > +Krutika Dhananjay and gluster ml >>> > >>> > On Tue, Mar 26, 2019 at 6:16 PM Sander Hoentjen <sander at hoentjen.eu> >>> wrote: >>> >> Hello, >>> >> >>> >> tl;dr We have disk corruption when doing live storage migration on >>> oVirt >>> >> 4.2 with gluster 3.12.15.

[Gluster-users] [ovirt-users] Re: VM disk corruption with LSM on Gluster
Hi Krutika, Leo, Sounds promising. I will test this too, and report back tomorrow (or maybe sooner, if corruption occurs again). -- Sander On 27-03-19 10:00, Krutika Dhananjay wrote:> This is needed to prevent any inconsistencies stemming from buffered > writes/caching file data during live VM migration. > Besides, for Gluster to truly honor direct-io behavior in qemu's > 'cache=none' mode (which is what oVirt uses), > one needs to turn on performance.strict-o-direct and disable remote-dio. > > -Krutika > > On Wed, Mar 27, 2019 at 12:24 PM Leo David <leoalex at gmail.com > <mailto:leoalex at gmail.com>> wrote: > > Hi, > I can confirm that after setting these two options, I haven't > encountered disk corruptions anymore. > The downside, is that at least for me it had a pretty big impact > on performance. > The iops really went down - performing? inside vm fio tests. > > On Wed, Mar 27, 2019, 07:03 Krutika Dhananjay <kdhananj at redhat.com > <mailto:kdhananj at redhat.com>> wrote: > > Could you enable strict-o-direct and disable remote-dio on the > src volume as well, restart the vms on "old" and retry migration? > > # gluster volume set <VOLNAME> performance.strict-o-direct on > # gluster volume set <VOLNAME> network.remote-dio off > > -Krutika > > On Tue, Mar 26, 2019 at 10:32 PM Sander Hoentjen > <sander at hoentjen.eu <mailto:sander at hoentjen.eu>> wrote: > > On 26-03-19 14:23, Sahina Bose wrote: > > +Krutika Dhananjay and gluster ml > > > > On Tue, Mar 26, 2019 at 6:16 PM Sander Hoentjen > <sander at hoentjen.eu <mailto:sander at hoentjen.eu>> wrote: > >> Hello, > >> > >> tl;dr We have disk corruption when doing live storage > migration on oVirt > >> 4.2 with gluster 3.12.15.
