Hi again group. I have a practical question this time. I am building A small cluster with GFS and wanted to know if I should beef up the memory on the lock server or is it not necessary. For example, if slave nodes (2-5) have 512 MB RAM, what would be a good proportional amount for the lock server if it is doing no other work than just existing as the lock server ? I don;t want waste memory if not necesary. In the docs, Brian indicates things ran well with 512 MB but poorly with 192 MB Jeff __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

This memory requirement doesn't apply to GFS clusters in general. Brian |

I don't think the lock server is terribly memory-hungry. You can specify the amount of memory memexpd uses with the -m flag. --Brian > > > In the docs, Brian indicates things ran well with 512 > > MB but poorly with 192 MB > > That's for running a cluster of virtual UML nodes, since the host > machine has to simultaneously hold the images of several virtual > machines.
