      @splastunov The DotHill certainly wasn't great for scaling out, because of the age of the firmware and the old-school treatment of the disk arrays.

      We did deploy several disk expansion trays that were part populated at purchase as some level of expansion, and operated most of the array as a single underlying pool, which was then split up into iSCSI presented volumes.

      So the limitations of the DotHill controllers and firmware we were using didn't address the storage pool scaling issue that CEPH / GPFS / etal are designed to.

      However, some of the newer filer heads that treat their entire available disk array as a consolidated pool and support iSCSI would have that scalability, whilst keeping the hypervisor side relatively straight-forward.

      CEPH etal are also in a much more mature place than they were back in the early 2010s too, so if I was doing it again, maybe we would go for a solution architecture based around that. Or XOSTOR, of course!

      My intent was to present an iSCSI setup instance as something we found relatively bomb-proof, and post-initial configuration, relatively easy to scale. We provisioned 24 port A and B side network switches with jumbo frame support to give us the scalability to add further pools of hypervisors or storage, as required.

        The typical hypervisor node was provisioned with at least 4 network ports, but most had 8 to allow trunking/resilience for every connection:

        Management + live migration (Isolated)
        World (Trunk)
        iSCSI-A
        iSCSI-B

        The DotHills were 4 ports per controller, and the two controllers were configured as:

        Management
        iSCSI-A
        iSCSI-B
        Spare

        The iSCSI-A and iSCSI-B were simple web-managed procurves with 24 ports each.

        We had this scaled to 12 hypervisor nodes in 3 pools, all running off the same underlying dothill (dual redundant controller) hardware. We had provisioned some local SSD storage in each hypervisor for any nodes that were struggling for IOPs but ultimately never needed that.

          OK we have debugged and improved this process, so including it here if it helps anyone else.

          How to migrate resources between XOSTOR (linstor) clusters. This also works with piraeus-operator, which we use for k8s.

          Manually moving listor resource with thin_send_recv

          Migration of data

          Need to yeet errors on both ends of command or it will fail.

          This is the same setup process for replica-1 or replica-3. For replica-3 can target new-xostor-server-01 each time, for replica-1 be sure to spread them out right.

          Explanation

          thin_send to new-xostor-server-01, will need to run commands to force sync of data to replicas.

          To force the sync, run the following command on the node with the data

          drbdadm invalidate-remote pvc-96cbebbe-f827-4a47-ae95-38b078e0d584

          This will kick it to get the data re-synced.

            Last week I stood up two XCP-ng hosts with LINSTOR without issue.

            This week I am standing up a third XCP-ng host and encounter a show stopping error when I try to install LINSTOR:

            Error: Package: xcp-ng-linstor-1.1-3.xcpng8.2.noarch (xcp-ng-linstor)
            Requires: sm-linstor
            ...
            Failed to install LINSTOR package: xcp-ng-linstor.

            This third host is 100% identical in hardware to the first two hosts. Fresh from-scratch new install of XCP-ng. Here is an output of commands and their results on the third host:

             You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
             You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
            Failed to install LINSTOR package: xcp-ng-linstor.
            

            It seems the sm* package(s) are missing ? I don't know what to do.

            Edit 2024-11-17 1702 CST: yum install xcp-ng-release-linstor indicates xcp-ng-release-linstor is already installed and latest version.

            [16:14 bol-xcp3 ~]# yum install xcp-ng-release-linstor

            Nothing to do

              @BlueToast This should be fixed now. Please retry the XOSTOR installation.
