Hi, The Openstack Swift admin guide talks about the swift-drive-audit tool for detecting failed drives and unmounting then. It says that this tool should be setup to run as periodic cronjob.
I have a question about configuring this correctly so as: 1) Detect failures and unmount the failed drive as soon as possible AND 2) Not miss any error message in the kern.log files AND 3) Not unmount a drive that has already been replaced with a new one. If the swift-drive-audit config file has minutes = N, then the cron job should also run every N minutes. If it is less than N, the swift-drive-audit tool could potentially unmount an already recovered drive. If it is > N, it is possible to miss some messages in the log file. Is the above analysis correct? -Shri _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : openstack@lists.openstack.org Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack
