[11:44] Can anyone tell me which disk/scsi parameters are changes when installing via FAI? It seems like the disk performance is poor, opposed to a 'normal' virt-install instance. [11:44] ErKa (~keryell@keryell.pck.nerim.net) joined #fai. [11:47] Swat-: during or after install? [11:49] The only time i test write/read performance is after the install, so after :) [11:51] I even copied the kvm xml config which was created using virt-install (where the write performance is good). So i am fairly sure its not KVM or the way KVM attached the disk. [11:59] Swat-: are you using the same kernel during and after installation? [12:01] oh wait... i misread yesterday... you are using fai instead of virt-install? [12:01] i would have thought one would use fai with virt-install... not that i ever got it to work... [12:01] Yes, i have 1 vm installed with virt-install (which had good disk wrote performance) [12:02] The other vm is installed via FAI and gives me poor write performance. [12:02] Kernel version on both: Linux debian 2.6.32-5-amd64 [12:02] Tried playing with disk schedules, but that makes not a big difference. [12:03] so what do you mean by "installed with virt-install"? [12:03] are you attaching an iso image of the debian installer, or what? [12:03] virt-install -n bla -r 1024 etc.. <-- virt-install way. [12:04] FAI uses pxeboot with nfs source [12:04] does that include --pxe? [12:04] virt-install does not include --pxe; it includes --location http://ftp.tiscali.nl/pub/mirror/debian/.. [12:05] aha, so, why don't you try it with --pxe? [12:06] well i could, but then i would have 2 boxes with disk write performance issues. [12:07] ok so you're convinced that the problem actually has nothing to do with virt-install, but rather with debian-installer vs. fai, is that right? [12:07] Yes, and since virt-install --location is the same source as my fai mirror was setup, i assume its somewhere in the fai config files. [12:10] well, you'll have to check your installed images for differences, i'm afraid i don't know very well what kind of stuff debian-installer does... [12:10] Ye ok.. i will try to see if i can find some diffs [12:12] Well thanks so far, when i find the issue i'll be sure to drop a note here :) [12:39] fai: 3 lange committed revision 6203 to 7 fai: apply patch from experimental, install grub into all raid devices [13:08] alekibango (~alekibang@ip-94-113-35-25.net.upcbroadband.cz) left irc: Remote host closed the connection [14:13] alekibango (~alekibang@ip-94-113-35-25.net.upcbroadband.cz) joined #fai.
