similar to: Local node indexes in a cluster backend with GFS2

We have done some benchmarking tests using dovecot 2.0.12 to find the best shared filesystem for hosting many users, here I share with you the results, notice the bad perfomance of all the shared filesystems against the local storage. Is there any specific optimization/tunning on dovecot for use GFS2 on rhel6??, we have configured the director to make the user mailbox persistent in a node, we will

Hello list, we continue our tests using Dovecot on a RHEL 6.1 Cluster Backend with GFS2, also we are using dovecot as a Director for user node persistence, everything was ok until we started stress testing the solution with imaptest, we had many deadlocks, cluster filesystems corruptions and hangs, specially in index filesystem, we have configured the backend as if they were on a NFS like setup

Today I will try Dovecot Director for a setup using a Cluster Backend with GFS2 on rhel5, my question is if is Director stable for use in production for large sites, I know is mainly designed for NFS but I believe it will do the job also for a cluster filesystem like GFS2 and should solve the mail persistence problem with a node and locking issues. I plan to add a layer behind a load balancer to

Just that, wich is the recommended quota backend for sdbox in terms of performance and flexibility running a setup of virtual users with ldap??... thank's in advance...

Centos CSGFS is at this time really outdated compared to current rh updates and fixes, is the centos team still giving support to this version???. Best regards

Hi to all in the list, we are trying to do some tests lab for a large scale mail system having this requirements: - Scale to maybe 1million users(Only for testing). - Server side filters. - User quotas. - High concurrency. - High performance and High Availability. We plan to test this using RHEL5 and maybe RHEL6. As a storage we are going to use an HP EVA 8400 FC(8 GB/s) We defined this

Hi list, I've been trying to update my csgfs stuff to 4.7 this week but I notice that current csgfs is built against kernel-2.6.9-78.0.1 and is required as a dependence, right now current kernel is 2.6.9-78.0.5 it would be great if csgfs can be rebuilt or updated to this, so dependences works ok??? Best regards

Hi list, any timeframe for the sync of csgfs in centos 4 with current kernel updates???. Best regards

Hi people, I know I saw this at some point in the list but can't find it, I need a script wich monitor the health of the email backend and if a node fails remove it from the director server, once is up again add it, I plan tu run the script at the load balancer, if you have some let me know.. thank's in advance

Hi people, I have a setup configured using ldap, I have noticed that after a period of user inactivity if a client open connections to dovecot first attemps fails with this: Nov 16 19:34:43 cl05-02 dovecot: auth: Error: ldap(user at xxx.xx.xx,172.29.13.26): Connection appears to be hanging, reconnecting After the connections to ldap has been restablished everything starts working ok, is this a

I'm having a problem with dovecot ldap connection when ldap server is in another firewall zone, firewall kills the ldap connection after a determined period of inactivity, this is good from the firewall point of view but is bad for dovecot because it never knows the connections has been dropped, this creates longs timeouts in dovecot and finally it reconnects, meanwhile many users fails to

I'm searching for the SRPM corresponding to this installed RPM. % yum list | grep gfs2 gfs2-kmod-debuginfo.x86_64 1.92-1.1.el5_2.2 It is missing from: http://msync.centos.org/centos-5/5/os/SRPMS/ What I need from the SRPM are the patches. I'm working through some issues using the source code, and the patches in the RedHat SRPM

Hi all, Where i want to arrive: 1) having two storage server replicating partition with DRBD 2) exporting via GNBD from the primary server the drbd with GFS2 3) inporting the GNBD on some nodes and mount it with GFS2 Assuming no logical error are done in the last points logic this is the situation: Server 1: LogVol09, DRDB configured as /dev/drbd0 replicated to Server 2. DRBD seems to work

Hello, I will create a Xen cluster and using GFS2 (with conga, ...) to create a new Xen cluster. I know that GFS2 is prod ready since RHEL 5.3. Do you know whent Centos 5.3 will be ready ? Can I install my GFS2 FS with centos 5.2 and then "simply" upgrade to 5.3 without reinstallation ? Tx

I have tried sending this before, but it did not appear to get through. Hello, When using gfs2 with quotas on a SAN that is providing storage to two clustered systems running CentOS6.5, one of the systems can crash. This crash appears to be caused when a user tries to add something to a SAN disk when they have exceeded their quota on that disk. Sometimes a stack trace is produced in

Hi everybody, I have tested CTDB+GFS2+CMAN under Debian. It works good but I do not understand some points. It is possible to run the CTDB defining it under services section in cluster.conf but running it on the second node shuts down the process at the first one. My CTDB configuration implies 2 active-active nodes. Does CTDB care if the node starts with clean_start="0" or

Hello, I'm deploing a new email cluster using Dovecot over GFS2. Actually I'm using courier over GFS. Actually I'm testing Dovecot with these parameters: mmap_disable = yes mail_fsync = always mail_nfs_storage = yes mail_nfs_index = yes lock_method = fcntl Are they correct? RedHat GFS support mmap, so is it better to enable it or leave it disabled? The documentation suggest the
