Chapter 5. Configure performance improvements
Some deployments benefit from additional configuration to achieve optimal performance. This section covers recommended additional configuration for certain deployments.
If your main storage devices are not Solid State Disks (SSDs), Red Hat recommends configuring a logical volume cache (lvmcache) to achieve the required performance for Red Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure for Virtualization deployments.
Create the gdeploy configuration file
Create a gdeploy configuration file named
lvmcache.conf
that contains at least the following information. Note that the ssd value should be the device name, not the device path (for example, use sdb not/dev/sdb
).Example lvmcache.conf file

ImportantThe default cache mode is
writethrough
, butwriteback
mode is also supported. To avoid the potential for data loss when implementing lvmcache inwriteback
mode, two separate SSD/NVMe devices are highly recommended. By configuring the two devices in a RAID-1 configuration (via software or hardware), the potential of data loss from lost writes is reduced significantly.Run gdeploy
Run the following command to apply the configuration specified in
lvmcache.conf
.gdeploy -c lvmcache.conf
# gdeploy -c lvmcache.conf
