近期在做集群网络的升级方案,涉及到网络设备有交换机、线缆、网卡。过程中测试了不少网络厂商的设备,这里主要记录下在测试Chelsio网卡时的一些问题。
测试内容
- 网卡带宽
- 网卡延迟(TCP/iwarp)
- lustre on iwarp
网卡带宽和延迟这里不做过多介绍,这个测试起来比较简单,直接跑下iperf和ib_write测试工具即可;这里主要记录下如何在lustre上启用iwarp。
测试环境
直接上图:
存储硬件设备使用DDN/SFA7700x作为lustre的后端盘阵,共60块7.2K NL-SAS硬盘。存储与IO节点之间使用IB互联,IO节点对外使用Chelsio T580-LP-CR 40Gb网卡,客户端有2个,一个是40Gb网卡,一个是10Gb网卡。
环境部署
安装OFED
虽然Mellonax和Chelsio网卡驱动包里都包含了ofed驱动,但如果把两张网卡放在一台机器上使用并加载iwarp功能,ofed驱动会不兼容,这里mellonax厂商可能对其驱动包里的ofed做了修改,阉割了对iwarp的支持。所以我们第一步就是安装开源ofed。
[[email protected]242-243 ~]# cd OFED-3.18-1
[[email protected]242-243 OFED-3.18-1]# ls
BUILD_ID docs install.pl LICENSE ofed.conf.save README.txt RPMS SOURCES SPECS SRPMS uninstall.sh
[[email protected]242-243 OFED-3.18-1]# ./install.pl
执行install.pl脚本,根据提示安装即可。安装过程中可能会报错,有些依赖软件需要手动安装
[root@hpc-242-243 ~]#yum install openldap-devel apr-util-devel mod_ssl byacc.x86_64 libtool kernel-devel redhat-rpm-config rpm-build
我的环境里缺的是这些组件。

正常的话,这样结束就可以了。不过安装过程中可能还是会报一些错误,不过日志里都有记录,根据日志提示一个一个解决即可。刚才只是安装了网卡的驱动,还没有安装iwarp相关软件包,需要再执行一下./install.py -c iwarp。安装方法和上面一样。
安装完成后重启一下系统,然后加载相关模块即可:

cxgb4是以太网模块,iw_cxgb4是启用iwarp,只有iw_cxgb4模块加载成功iwarp功能才正常,判断iwarp是否启用可通过ibv_devices或ibv_devinfo 命令查看,这两条命令列出的都是ib设备。我这里有一张单端口的Mellonax FDR和双端口Chelsio网卡。
Lustre安装
上面配置都完成后,才具备lustre安装基本环境。这里使用的 是lustre源码包安装,先编译生成rpm包后才能安装。
给lustre打补丁
这里chelsio提供了一个lustre_kernel.patch。官方文档中说需先打这个补丁才能正常工作。将lustre_kernel.path拷贝到lustre-2.5.41-ddn3-23bc966/lustre/kernel_patches/patches目录下,然后到lustre-2.5.41-ddn3-23bc966/lustre/kernel_patches/series目录下修改配置文件
[[email protected]242-243 series]# vim 2.6-rhel6.6.series
lustre_version.patch
mpt-fusion-max-sge-rhel6.patch
raid5-mmp-unplug-dev-rhel6.patch

在最后增加一行lustre_kernel.patch。
编译

完了之后在/root目录下会生成相关rpm安装包。

[[email protected]242-243 x86_64]# pwd
/root/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64
将这些rpm包在两个server节点上全部安装上。
修改lustre.conf文件,使用tcp还是iwarp网络,这里的写法很重要,这里是使用iwarp的方式。
[root@hpc-242-243 x86_64]# cat /etc/modprobe.d/lustre.conf
options lnet networks=o2ib0(eth3),tcp0(eth3)
如果是tcp,比较简单:
[root@hpc-242-243 x86_64]# cat /etc/modprobe.d/lustre.conf
options lnet networks=tcp(eth3)
将配置文件同步到另外一个IO节点上,加载lnet和lustre模块。
[root@hpc-242-243 x86_64]# modprobe lnet
[root@hpc-242-243 x86_64]# modprobe lustre
加载成功后,开始格式化磁盘,创建lustre文件系统
mkfs.lustre --mgs --mdt --fsname=lustre --mkfsoptions="-m 1 -J size=4096" --reformat --verbose /dev/mapper/360001ff0a003f000000000308a35000f ##创建mdt
格式化ost
mkfs.lustre --ost --index=0 --fsname=lustre --mgsnode=192.168.1.[email protected] --mkfsoptions="-m 1 -i 131072" --reformat --writeconf --verbose /dev/mapper/360001ff0a003f000000000278a2c0006

格式化完之后挂载
mount -t lustre /dev/mapper/360001ff0a003f000000000308a35000f /lustre/mdt
mount -t lustre /dev/mapper/360001ff0a003f000000000278a2c0006 /lustre/ost00
mount -t lustre /dev/mapper/360001ff0a003f000000000298a2e0008 /lustre/ost01
mount -t lustre /dev/mapper/360001ff0a003f000000000288a2d0007 /lustre/ost02
mount -t lustre /dev/mapper/360001ff0a003f000000000318a360010 /lustre/ost03
mount -t lustre /dev/mapper/360001ff0a003f0000000002a8a2f0009 /lustre/ost04
mount -t lustre /dev/mapper/360001ff0a003f0000000002b8a30000a /lustre/ost05
客户端安装
客户端的安装基本上和server相同,都需要安装ofed、网卡驱动,加载cxgb4和iw_cxgb4,只有这些都正确完成后才可以进行lustre安装。
首先编译lustre客户端安装包
按照前面的方式增加kernel补丁包之后进行编译生成rpm文件
[root@hpc-242-243 lustre-2.5.41-ddn3-23bc966]#./configure --with-linux=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64 --with-o2ib=/usr/src/compat-rdma --disable-server
[root@hpc-242-243 lustre-2.5.41-ddn3-23bc966]# make -j20
[root@hpc-242-243 lustre-2.5.41-ddn3-23bc966]# make rpms
完了之后在/root目录下会生成相关rpm安装包
[[email protected]242-242 x86_64]# ls
lustre-client-2.5.41-ddn3_2.6.32_504.el6.x86_64_g23bc966.x86_64.rpm
lustre-client-modules-2.5.41-ddn3_2.6.32_504.el6.x86_64_g23bc966.x86_64.rpm
lustre-client-source-2.5.41-ddn3_2.6.32_504.el6.x86_64_g23bc966.x86_64.rpm
lustre-client-tests-2.5.41-ddn3_2.6.32_504.el6.x86_64_g23bc966.x86_64.rpm
lustre-iokit-2.5.41-ddn3_2.6.32_504.el6.x86_64_g23bc966.x86_64.rpm
将这些安装包全部安装上,然后同样需要修改lustre.conf文件,配置同server上配置一样。
都安装完成后,加载相应模块,这里总结下需要加载的模块有4个
[[email protected]]#modprobe cxgb4 ##Chelsio网卡模块
[[email protected]]#modprobe iw_cxgb4 ##加载iwarp
[[email protected]]#modprobe lnet ##加载lustre网络
[[email protected]]#modprobe lustre ##加载lustre文件系统
这4个模块都正常加载成功,iwarp才能正常工作,他们之间是有一定的依赖,解决好这些依赖关系,才能顺利加载成功。
挂载
mount -t lustre -o localflock 192.168.1.243@o2ib:/lustre /lustre
测试
挂载成功后即可开始性能测试了,这里使用的是iozone工具,我分别测试了不同数据块大小下的顺序读写性能,这里直接贴下测试脚本,具体过程就不详细说了。
[[email protected]242-242 lustre]# cat run.sh
#!/bin/bash
for i in {4,8,16,64,1024}
do
/lustre/iozone/bin/iozone -i 0 -i 1 -r $i\k -s 20g -t 16 -+n -+m list
done
以上是加载iwarp的测试过程,tcp下比较简单,安装正常流程把chelsio网卡驱动安装后加载cxgb4模块后在安装lustre就行。这里不做详细说明了。下面贴下最终测试结果:
