We use NFS storage repositories with our Xenserver clusters for
backup on a regular basis for this sort of thing. It depends on
your network and your hardware as well.<br>
<br>
What mount options are you using to mount these NFS shares?<br>
<br>
Have Fun<br>

<div>Hi Folks, <br>
<br>
Long time/First time for this mailing list. <br>
<br>
</div>
I've setup an NFS server for some testing at work, and I'm
looking to get an idea of I/O for the NFS shares. <br>
<br>
</div>
I'm aware of iostat, and nfsstat, are there any tools that
would be analogous to the windows perforamce monitor type
stuff, where I can look at pretty graphs without too much
effort? <br>
<br>
</div>
I'm trying to get a rough idea of the max iops for this setip.<br>
<br>
We'd like to use it as a backup datastore for our VMware
hosts, but want to make sure that in case of massive disaster
they can handle the load we'd need to place on them. <br>

<div>I've got CentOS 6 hooked up to a couple raid 10 DAS boxes.
Its all hardware thats out of warranty and so we cannot use it
in production, but its great for dr and testing.<br>
<br>
Any suggestions for NFS server performance monitoring for
dummies, particularly as a VMware datastore? <br>
<br>

<div>Thanks, <br>

Today I went to go hook up an external modem to one of our
servers. It's running an older version of debian. I had
forgot that I have a temperature and humidity sensing system
hooked up to the com port. It's pretty sweet, monitors the
temp on the room and each individual machine and I have it
hooked up to email me about anything unusual and text my
phone with anything really serious. In the old building
leaving the sever room door open was enough for it to start
emailing me.<br>
<br>
Anyway, it only has one serial port and several USB ports.
So two solutions come to mind. One is a Serial to USB
adapter, and the other is getting a card with a couple of
serial ports on it. I wonder which course of action has the
least headache involved and is such hardware available
locally?<br>
