Two-way mirroring?
by Stewart, John 14 Sep '05

14 Sep '05

We've got two NetApps, an F740 and an F87. The big 'un is in our US office, and the little guy is in our UK office. We've got a T1 between our sites, and of course the performance sucks for those who access files on the other side of the pond. I'm wondering about possible mirroring options. From what I've heard, all of them are one-way. There is no such thing as a two-way style of mirror, is there? For example, if a user opens a file on one side, it would lock the file on both filers, and then when he saves it, it is synced to both sides. Otherwise, the only thing I can do, really, is set up particular directories to mirror over, and so we'd have a read-only copy of the local folder on the other side, and vice versa. Not really the most useful thing for collaboration. Anyone have any good solutions to such a problem? thanks johnS

If the files being accessed across the pond are often the same files, some of NetApp's filer caching products might be of use. That way, once the files were cached locally, only the updates would need to go across the pond.

Anyone using WysDM?

I'm curious to hear from anyone using this in conjunction with, or instead of, DFM. What caused you to purchase it with/instead of DFM? Are you getting more information out of it than with DFM? Do you make both available to end users? One? None? Do you use both for notification? Etc... Thanks. ~JK

RE: NFS Performance
by Ben Kicken 14 Sep '05

Can't see what kind of NIC you are working with (100Mbps or Gb Ethernet), but maybe interesting suggestion for you: Check client NIC settings to Switch port settings and from switch port to Filer NIC settings. Ie, obviously Auto-negotiation and Flow-control settings are not always as they should be, had this problem with Cisco switch. After changing switch port settings (negotiation fixed instead of auto and Flow control set as Tx=full rx=full) performance increased to acceptable levels.

NFS Performance
by Ben Rockwood 13 Sep '05

13 Sep '05

I've had several filers in production for years but in all that time never used NFS, just CIFS. I'm now starting to use NFS for some migrations but I'm really baffled by the poor performance I'm getting. Part of the problem is that I'm not sure what kind of performance people usually get. When I started pulling data off my 940's I was only getting around 4-5MB/s. I'm grabbing data by way of GNU Tar on Solaris. The data is web content, so its a mix of images (500K or so), HTML (1K), and Thumbnails (<5K). No matter what I seem to do I can't boost performance above that 5MB/s mark. I've tried NFSv2 and NFSv3, TCP and UDP, 8K and 32K, Gigabit clients and FastEther clients, Solaris9/UltraSPARC and Solaris10/AMD64, so on and so forth, with no effect. Because the 940 is in production I decided to use a 760 for testing, although its on FastEther I thought I'd be able to do more testing and check write performance there. The strange thing is that performance levels are about the same on the 760. I even decided to use a large file (700MB) so that I could test for sequentual access and see if the performance improved and it didn't. Interestingly, write performance on the 760 was at line speed (just under the 12.5MB/s limit of FastEther). So on the 760 I can write data twice as fast as I can get it. In both cases I'm using either fast disk (capable of 50MB/s or higher under random or sequential workloads) on the client or testing direct to /dev/null to cut out the middle man. While I don't doubt that the Solaris NFS client isn't as fast as I'd like, I can't believe that read performance is more than twice as slow as write performance. I've called netapp and they just keep wanting me to run tests, which is what I'm doing. Searching NOW hasn't helped, searching Google hasn't helped. Any ideas? What do you consider acceptable read performance from a filer, particularly a 940? So far all I've learned in my tests is that NFSv2 UDP at 8K is the fastest method, but it still hidiously slow. Any ideas are greatly appreciated. benr.

options cifs.trace_login is very chatty
by Steve Losen 08 Sep '05

08 Sep '05

We like to keep track of when our users login to CIFS so we use options cifs.trace_login on but under 7.0.1R1 this is extremely chatty. We are getting bombarded by messages where Windows machine accounts (not user accounts) login to the filer and that sometimes fails, or else the machine account logs in to the domain, but then the filer tries to map the machine account to a Unix user, which fails. Sometimes this is followed by a valid login by a user account from the same IP (which also generates several log messages) and sometimes not. But most of the noise seems to be caused by Windows machine accounts. It's Thursday afternoon and our /etc/messages file is 260M. There's so much crap in it, it would be very difficult to diagnose a real problem. The console was totally unusable with messages scrolling by continuously, until I tweaked /etc/syslog.conf. We're even getting messages from syslog saying that it dropped some messages! I tried options cifs.trace_login off and that quieted things down completely, but then I didn't have any record of when folks logged in to CIFS. I suppose I can muck some more with syslog.conf. Any other suggestions? Steve Losen scl(a)virginia.edu phone: 434-924-0640 University of Virginia ITC Unix Support
