One of our older drbd 8.0.14 clusters is pretty busy these days servicing about 130 separate instances of MySQL and is seeing bursts of 10-30% iowait, sometimes more, for maybe 3-4 seconds at a time. Someone told me I could increase performance and reduce iowait by mounting the ext3 filesystem with the "noatime" option. Are there any dangers to be concerned about when mounting a drbd device using the noatime option? No more than any other kind of block device. If you're ok using noatime (and for a database you probably are) then using it with DRBD doesn't make a difference. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
