A.1.7. 멀티패스 맵핑 대상

멀티패스 맵핑 대상은 멀티패스된 장치의 맵핑을 지원합니다. multipath 대상의 형식은 다음과 같습니다:

start length  multipath  #features [feature1 ... featureN] #handlerargs [handlerarg1 ... handlerargN] #pathgroups pathgroup pathgroupargs1 ... pathgroupargsN

각 경로 그룹에 대한 pathgroupargs 매개 변수 모음이 하나 있습니다.

start

가상 장치에서 시작점 블록

length

세그먼트 길이

#features

멀티패스 기능의 수로 이러한 기능은 다음에 표시됩니다. 이러한 매개 변수가 영이되면, feature 매개 변수가 없게 되고 다음의 장치 맵핑 매개 변수는 #handlerargs가 됩니다. 현재 지원되는 멀티패스 기능은 queue_if_no_path 하나 입니다. 이는 사용 가능한 경로가 없을 경우 현재 멀티패스된 장치는 I/O 작업을 대기열로 하도록 설정됨을 의미합니다.

예를 들어, multipath.conf 파일의 no_path_retry 옵션이 지정된 일련의 시도 횟수가 경로를 사용한 후 전체 경로가 실패로 표시될 때 까지 I/O 작업을 대기열로 하도록 설정되어 있을 경우, 맵핑은 전체 경로 검사기가 지정된 검사를 실패할 때 까지 다음과 같이 나타나게 됩니다.

전체 경로 검사기가 지정된 검사를 실패한 후, 맵핑은 다음과 같이 나타나게 됩니다.

#handlerargs

하드웨어 처리기 인수 수량으로 이러한 인수가 그 다음에 표시됩니다. 하드웨어 처리기는 경로 그룹을 전환하거나 또는 I/O 오류를 처리할 때 하드웨어 특정 작업을 실행하기 위해 사용되는 모듈을 지정합니다. 이것이 0으로 설정되어 있을 경우, 다음 매개 변수는 #pathgroups이 됩니다.

#pathgroups

경로 그룹의 수량. 경로 그룹은 멀티패스된 장치가 로드 밸런스를 수행하는 경로 모음입니다. 각각의 경로 그룹에 대해 pathgroupargs 매개 변수 모음이 하나 있습니다.

pathgroup

시도할 다음 경로 그룹

pathgroupsargs

각 경로 그룹은 다음과 같은 인수로 구성되어 있습니다:

pathselector #selectorargs #paths #pathargs device1 ioreqs1 ... deviceN ioreqsN 

경로 그룹에는 각 경로에 대한 경로 인수 모음 하나가 있습니다.

pathselector

경로 그룹에서 어떤 경로를 다음 I/O 작업에 사용할 지를 결정하기 위해 사용되고 있는 알고리즘을 지정합니다.

#selectorargs

멀티패스 맵핑에서 이러한 인수를 따르는 경로 선택기 인수의 수량. 현재 이러한 인수 값은 항상 0입니다.

#paths

경로 그룹에 있는 경로 수량

#pathargs

이 그룹의 각 경로에 지정된 경로 인수의 수량. 현재 이러한 숫자는 항상 ioreqs 인수인 1로 되어 있습니다.

device

경로의 블록 장치 번호, major:minor 형식으로 major와 minor 번호에 의해 참조됩니다

ioreqs

현재 그룹의 다음 경로로 전환하기 전 이러한 경로로 라우팅하기 위한 I/O 요청 수.

그림 A.1. “멀티패스 맵핑 대상 ”에서는 두 개의 경로 그룹이 있는 멀티패스 대상 형식을 보여주고 있습니다.

그림 A.1. 멀티패스 맵핑 대상

다음 예제에서는 동일한 멀티패스 장치에 대한 순수한 장애 조치 대상의 정의를 보여주고 있습니다. 이러한 대상에는 경로 그룹 당 경로 하나만 열려있는 4 개의 경로 그룹이 있어 멀티패스된 장치는 한 번에 하나의 경로만을 사용하게 됩니다.

0 71014400 multipath 0 0 4 1 round-robin 0 1 1 66:112 1000 \

round-robin 0 1 1 65:48 1000

다음의 예제에서는 동일한 멀티패스 장치에 대해 완전하게 확산된 (multibus) 대상을 보여주고 있습니다. 이러한 대상에는 모든 경로를 포함하는 하나의 경로 그룹만 있습니다. 이러한 설정에서 멀티패스는 경로 전체에 부하를 균등하게 확산합니다.

    # Be careful if there there are symbolic links or multiple filesystem 
    # entries for the same device as each name is checked separately against
    # the list of patterns.  The effect is that if any name matches any 'a'
    # pattern, the device is accepted; otherwise if any name matches any 'r'
    # pattern it is rejected; otherwise it is accepted.

    # In the event of a failure, the specified policy will be used to determine
    # what happens. This applies to automatic repairs (when the mirror is being
    # monitored by dmeventd) and to manual lvconvert --repair when
    # --use-policies is given.
    #
    # "remove" - Simply remove the faulty device and run without it.  If
    #            the log device fails, the mirror would convert to using
    #            an in-memory log.  This means the mirror will not
    #            remember its sync status across crashes/reboots and
    #            the entire mirror will be re-synced.  If a
    #            mirror image fails, the mirror will convert to a
    #            non-mirrored device if there is only one remaining good
    #            copy.
    #
    # "allocate" - Remove the faulty device and try to allocate space on
    #            a new device to be a replacement for the failed device.
    #            Using this policy for the log is fast and maintains the
    #            ability to remember sync state through crashes/reboots.
    #            Using this policy for a mirror device is slow, as it
    #            requires the mirror to resynchronize the devices, but it
    #            will preserve the mirror characteristic of the device.
    #            This policy acts like "remove" if no suitable device and
    #            space can be allocated for the replacement.
    #
    # "allocate_anywhere" - Not yet implemented. Useful to place the log device
    #            temporarily on same physical volume as one of the mirror
    #            images. This policy is not recommended for mirror devices
    #            since it would break the redundant nature of the mirror. This
    #            policy acts like "remove" if no suitable device and space can
    #            be allocated for the replacement.

    # 'snapshot_autoextend_threshold' and 'snapshot_autoextend_percent' define

    # snapshot should be extended: when its space usage exceeds this many
    # percent. The latter defines how much extra space should be allocated for
    # the snapshot, in percent of its current size.
    #
    # For example, if you set snapshot_autoextend_threshold to 70 and
    # snapshot_autoextend_percent to 20, whenever a snapshot exceeds 70% usage,
    # it will be extended by another 20%. For a 1G snapshot, using up 700M will
    # trigger a resize to 1.2G. When the usage exceeds 840M, the snapshot will
    # be extended to 1.44G, and so on.
