Hello All I'm facing a strange problem after the reinstallation of our storage cluster. We upgraded the raid controller and the interconnect to 10GbE. The Storage is very fast now: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb1 bs=512M count=12 oflag=direct 12+0 Datensätze ein 12+0 Datensätze aus 6442450944 Bytes (6,4 GB) kopiert, 10,5372 s, 611 MB/s As also the 10GbE interconnect: netperf -H 10.0.2.1,ipv4 TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 10.0.2.1 (10.0.2.1) port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 65536 65536 10.04 9335.75 Only the drbd is very slow. (Single node, just to test write perfomance on local block device. dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/drbd0 bs=512M count=8 4+0 Datensätze ein 4+0 Datensätze aus 2147483648 Bytes (2,1 GB) kopiert, 63,9839 s, 33,6 MB/s Cancelled with CTRL+C After long googleing and testing around with io scheduler nr_request etc. blockdev, I cannot see where the bottlenec lies. Had anybody mad similar experiences and can give me a hint. OS is Scientific Linux-6.4 x64 (CentOS) with drbd 8.4.1.
