XCP-NG vm's extremly slow

[Forza]

@Andi79 said in XCP-NG vm's extremly slow:

here is a Video of the problem
https://we.tl/t-A8JF4EAWht

I can't download from there. But in any case. Can you provide the details exactly how things are configured?

[Andi79]

@Forza i uploaded here again as direct link

http://pzka.de/xen.mp4

"It sounds like a networking issue"

how could network issues cause a problem like a freze after an ls?

"Can you provide the details exactly how things are configured?"

what exactly do you need to know? it's a standard instalation, the ssd is attached during instalation as a raid1 on md127. the hdd is attached after that as md126. The VMs where migrated from some other hosts where they did not made this troubles.
The Host system took 4GB Ram by default.

[Forza]

You did not show any SR details. You can see those in XOA->Hosts->(your host->Storage-tab

Example:

Also. Your VM. What storage does it use?
Example:

[Andi79]

here is the storage list

[hoerup]

@Andi79
Is the problem occurring both when the vm's are on HDD and on SSD storage or only on HDD ?

[Andi79]

@hoerup on both. I allready thought this could happen on some idle thing on the hdd's, but same problem on the ssd's, so that could not be the cause

[Forza]

Can you try ext/thin instead of LVM? Not that this should matter that much.

[Forza]

Looking at the video it seems the writes get queued up (Dirty in /proc/meminfo). I wonder why writes are so slow.

What filesystems do you use on the guest?

[Andi79]

@Forza

this was the standard from xcp-ng during installation. The problem is that there allready are VMs on this machine and i can't reformat it without any problems (no other hosts in this data center where i could use the same IPs).

guest system uses ext3

[Andi79]

ok.... it really seems to be an io problem. any ideas what could cause this?

[olivierlambert]

@fohdeesha does it ring any bell?

[Andi79]

@Forza

now i noticed that tje jdb2 and kworker processes have gone... but system is still extremly slow

https://www.pzka.de/xen2.mp4

on this video i try to install munin for future data to analyse the problem. As you can see absolutly nothing happens (this can take many minutes now). There is a rsync "running" at a very slow speed, but as you can see cpu usage is ultra low and also top says no system load.

I think it must be a problem with xcp-ng, but I have no idea what it could be.

[olivierlambert]

Can you do a dmesg and also a smartctl -a /dev/sdb and smartctl /dev/sda?

[Andi79]

@olivierlambert

output of dmsg (on the vm):

i haven't installed smarttools on the VMs, but i can do.... from the video to now the apt for installing munin is on 4% now. it tooks very very long

[olivierlambert]

Not in the VM, in the Dom0 please

[Andi79]

that is the first host (i have only 1 raid on the ssd and 1 single hdd on this host)

it takes about 3-4sec for smartctl to display the data there

[olivierlambert]

All disks are taking 3/4 sec to display smartctl ?

[Andi79]

@olivierlambert
only the 4TB hdd. i also have testet it on the other dom0, there it's quicker. Maybe it's related because there are some running rsyncs on a virtual machine to this disk.

[fohdeesha]

@olivierlambert definitely doesn't ring any bells but definitely smells like a storage issue, I would test disk performance directly in dom0 on the RAID SR using something like FIO, although we don't provide this in our repos so that would be difficult to get in dom0. perhaps a simple dd speed test under the SR mount directly, you should be able to find it by running df -h. Just be sure you don't overwrite any VM disk files
