FOG 1.5.5 SLOW OPEN STORAGES NODES

[Sebastian Roth]

@wanderson Would you please test the latest dev-branch version? You should see an improvement if only upgrading the master node already. But to get to experience the full scope of changes I made you’d need to upgrade all storage nodes as well!

@Sebastian-Roth

Okay, I’ll test it, and then put the result here.

I tried to install via git, but I could not, where I get the .zip of the branch version??

Errors you got when trying git?

git clone https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject
cd fogproject/
git checkout dev-branch
cd bin/
./installfog.sh

But sure you can download the ZIP archive from github as well: https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/archive/dev-branch.zip

Watch video new test: -------------> https://youtu.be/r4T6oDEhQhQ

@wanderson That’s much faster than in the past. This is because we’re also testing if the machines are actually available and turned on. We do want to know if a machine is online and accessible right?

@wanderson Compared to your first video it improved immensely as you couldn’t even load the pages with 1.5.4 and now we improved to only 5 second delay when loading the storage node list or configuration page - for checking 35 storage nodes to be online!!

As I already said, if you update all your storage nodes to dev-branch it would be even faster!

Yes, one of your storage nodes seems a bit slower than the others. Because we test the online status on nodes in FOG 1.5.x it takes a little bit of time to load.

I would suggest you update the slowest storage nodes to dev-branch as well (best if you upgrade all of them!) and see if that helps.

Sure we could improve page loading speed even more if we do the online status check using AJAX.

@Sebastian-Roth

afraid to update everyone and stay slow … it takes a lot of work to update everyone

[Tom Elliott]

@wanderson That’s why we’re asking you to update in the first place.

WHen upgrading servers, it’s best to keep all servers/nodes at the same level (though certainly not a 100% requirement sometimes.)

We’re asking you to update because you reported a problem and we’ve been (mostly @Sebastian-Roth) working to improve and fix the slow UI. We won’t know if all is doing well until we know all machines are at the same level.

This is like a catch 22 now.

Either upgrade all of your servers and stay slow (where we can work towards improving and correcting as needed),

OR

Stay in the state you are where you already are slow.

We’re simply trying to help.

@Tom-Elliott

Okay, I’ll update and post the result here.
