Thanks for the heads up, I'll take a look at Mark's thread.
We are presenting 2 storage LUNs to a single ovirt cluster and yes, all hosts are hosted engine hosts.

Thanks,
Andrea

I think we already have hosted engine bug about doing to many calls to vdsm

that cause reloads of lvm data; this can cause increased io.

Can you attach vdsm and hosted engine agent logs showing the timeframe when

you have lot of iops on the server?

Andrea,
I don't want to point any fingers but Mark Greenall faced some issues with Ovirt 4.06/4.1 linked to equallogic as well.
You may want to search posts in this ML with subject " Ovirt 4.0.6 guests 'Not Responding' " to see if you find any similarities.
How many storages are you presenting to how many clusters?
Also, are your nodes all Hosted Engine Hosts? In my old configuration, normal hosts read IOPS ranged from 50 to 500 while HE ones peaked even ~3000
Cheers

Hi Andrea,

thanks for the insight; no I wasn't able to pinpoint the issue to a single host, the load seems to be evenly spread.
We have another cluster running 4.0.6 on a compellent as well and we haven't experienced any similar issues.

Thanks,
Andrea

Hello Andrea,
I saw that happening on my HE hosts connected to a COMPELLENT SC040
when I was running Ovirt 3.5

All HE hosts were hammering the SAN with 2~4k IOPS each

Upgrading to 4.0.5 solved my case.
Are you able to check if IOPS are generated from a particular host or rather spread among all nodes?

Cheers
AG

Subject: [ovirt-users] high number of IOPS from ovirt hosts

Hi,

We've got a 8-host cluster running oVirt 4.1; each host is connected via iscsi to a EQL 4100 storage (2x).
Most of the VMs use barely any IOPS, however on our storage controller we've noticed a constant steam of reads, about 2000 IOPS; any idea what might cause the ovirt hosts to hammer on the storage so much?

Looking at iotop, it seems that systemd-udevd is being activated every few seconds (and its IO% is usually fairly high) so I assume this might be somehow related.

Thanks,
Andrea
