The cgroup-bin was a transition package to cgroup-tools in Debian Buster, in Sid/Testing it was removed recently. As a consequence, we must advise our users to install cgroup-tools rather than cgroup-bin. Change-Id: I9291f84dcd6b6ed1a6c45416e272ac63ce02b6e9

Rate-limit volume copy bandwidth
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
When you create a new volume from an image or an existing volume, or
|
|
when you upload a volume image to the Image service, large data copy
|
|
may stress disk and network bandwidth. To mitigate slow down of data
|
|
access from the instances, OpenStack Block Storage supports rate-limiting
|
|
of volume data copy bandwidth.
|
|
|
|
Configure volume copy bandwidth limit
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
To configure the volume copy bandwidth limit, set the
|
|
``volume_copy_bps_limit`` option in the configuration groups for each
|
|
back end in the ``cinder.conf`` file. This option takes the integer of
|
|
maximum bandwidth allowed for volume data copy in byte per second. If
|
|
this option is set to ``0``, the rate-limit is disabled.
|
|
|
|
While multiple volume data copy operations are running in the same back
|
|
end, the specified bandwidth is divided to each copy.
|
|
|
|
Example ``cinder.conf`` configuration file to limit volume copy bandwidth
|
|
of ``lvmdriver-1`` up to 100 MiB/s:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: ini
|
|
|
|
[lvmdriver-1]
|
|
volume_group=cinder-volumes-1
|
|
volume_driver=cinder.volume.drivers.lvm.LVMVolumeDriver
|
|
volume_backend_name=LVM
|
|
volume_copy_bps_limit=104857600
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
This feature requires libcgroup to set up blkio cgroup for disk I/O
|
|
bandwidth limit. The libcgroup is provided by the cgroup-tools package
|
|
in Debian and Ubuntu, or by the libcgroup-tools package in Fedora,
|
|
Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, openSUSE, and SUSE Linux Enterprise.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Some back ends which use remote file systems such as NFS are not
|
|
supported by this feature.
