Re: [Moosefs-users] How many mfs clients can be supported by thesame master at the same time!!

we use MFS to create virtual block device,

A block device larger than 2T is much popular nowadays!

So I think 2T limitation impacts the MFS application in this area (cloud storage environment)

Dear all!
 
I have some questions about MFS, as following!
1. how many mfsclient can  be supported by the same master server at the same time?
what about 100 client mounting the same mfs master  at the same? what about the performace?
[MB] 100 clients would not be a problem. Performance should also not be affected (metadata in mfs master are kept in RAM for speed). Please have a look here: http://80.48.16.122/mfs.cgi?masterport=9421&mastername=bellona_main&sections=MS for our installation.
 
2. we know the mfs can only support a file whose size less than 2T, this is a bad limitation, when to remove it ?
any plan?
[MB] Is it really a big problem for you? Can’t you divide the files to be not bigger than 2TB? For the moment removing this limiation doesn’t have big priority.
 
 
whatever, Thx for the developers giving us a execlent DFS!!
[MB] :)
 
If you need any further assistance please let us know.
