StorNext File System Tuning Guide 1 0 S torNext File System T uning The StorNext File System (SNFS) pr ovides extremely high performance for widely varying scenarios. Many factors determine the level of performance you will realiz e. In particular, the performance characteristics of the underlying st orage system are the most critical factors.
StorNext File System T uning The Underlying Storage System StorNext File System Tuning Guide 2 RAID Cache Configuration 0 The single most i mportant RAID tuning component is the cache configuration. This is particular ly t rue for small I/O operat ions.

StorNext File System T uning File Size Mix and Application I/O Characteristics StorNext File System Tuning Guide 5 File Size Mix and Application I/O Characteristics It is always valuabl e to understand th e file size mix of the target dataset as well as the application I/O characte ristics.
StorNext File System T uning File Size Mix and Application I/O Characteristics StorNext File System Tuning Guide 6 It is usually best to configure the RA ID stripe size no greater than 256K for optimal small file buffer cache performance. For more buffer cache configuration settings, see Mount Command Options on page 17.
StorNext File System T uning The Metadata Network StorNext File System Tuning Guide 7 The Metadat a Network As with any client/server protocol, SNFS perfor mance is subject to the limitations of the underlying network. Therefore, it is recommended that you use a dedicated Metadata Networ k to avoid contention with other network traffic.
StorNext File System T uning The Metadata Controller System StorNext File System Tuning Guide 8 Some metadata operations such as fi le creation can be CPU intensive, and benefit from increased CPU power. The MDC platform is important in these scenarios because lower clock- speed CPUs such as Sparc and M ips degrade performance.

If buffered VFS writes are causing De vice reads, it might be beneficial to match I/O request size to a multiple of t he “cachebufsize” (default 64KB; see mount_cvfs man page).
StorNext File System T uning The Metadata Controller System StorNext File System Tuning Guide 17 Mount Command Options 0 The following SNFS mount command settings are explained in greater detail in the mount_cvfs man page. The default size of the buffer cache varies by platform and main memory size, and ranges between 32MB and 256M B.
StorNext File System T uning The Distributed LAN (Disk Proxy) Networks StorNext File System Tuning Guide 18 SNFS External API 0 The SNFS External API might be useful in some scenarios because it offers programmatic use of special SN FS performance capabilities such as affinities, preallocation, and quality of service.

StorNext File System T uning Distributed LAN Servers StorNext File System Tuning Guide 21 Distributed LAN Servers Distributed LAN Servers must ha ve suff icient memory. When a Distributed LAN Server does not have sufficient me mory, its performance in servicing Distributed LAN I/O requests might suffer.
