Subject: Optimal XFS formatting options?
Date: Sat, 14 Jan 2012 09:44:34 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <33140169.post@talk.nabble.com> (raw)
Hi, I have a 4.9 TB iSCSI LUN on a RAID 6 array with twelve 2 TB SATA disks
(4.9T is only one of the logical volumes). It will contain several million
files of various sizes, but 80% of them will be less than 50 MB. I'm a
novice at best and I usually just use the default #mkfs.xfs /dev/sdx1
This is server will be write heavy for about 8 hours a night, but every
morning there are many reads to the disk. There is rarely a time where it
will be write heavy and read heavy at the same time. Are there other XFS
format options that I could use to optimize performance?
Any input is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
