Re: [Moosefs-users] Large scale deletions

Hi!

 

Thomas, you can try to set CHUNKS_DEL_LIMIT option in mfsmaster.cfg to 10
and see if it helps you for the moment. It depends if you delete lots of
files once or you delete them "continuously".

 

 

Regards

Subject: [Moosefs-users] Large scale deletions

 

I have run into a problem with Moosefs when I delete a LOT of files at once,
in my environment we add hundreds of thousands of files, process them into
smaller encoded files, and then delete the originals, when we delete the
originals the deletion process can lock up our writes, and dramatically
slows down our moosefs.

 

Is there a way to make large scale deletions behave a little more nicely?
