<p class="MsoNormal">May I ask how to size pagepool on clients? Somehow I hear an enormous tin can being opened behind me… and what sounds like lots of worms…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anyway, I currently have mmhealth reporting gpfs_pagepool_small. Pagepool is set to 1024M on clients,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">and I now note the documentation says you get this warning when pagepool is lower or equal to 1GB<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We did do some IOR benchmarking which shows better performance with an increased pagepool size.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am looking for some rules of thumb for sizing for an 128Gbyte RAM client.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And yup, I know the answer will be ‘depends on your workload’<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I agree though that 1024M is too low.<o:p></o:p></p>
