I have an OpenStack VM that is getting really poor performance on its root disk - less than 50MB/s writes. My setup is 10 GbE, OpenStack deployed using kolla, the Queen release, with storage on Ceph. I'm trying to follow the path through the infrastructure to identify where the performance bottleneck is, but getting lost along the way:
nova show lets me see which hypervisor (an Ubuntu 16.04 machine) the VM is running on but once I'm on the hypervisor I don't know what to look at. Where else can I look?
Thank you!
My advice is to check the performance first between host (hypervisor) and ceph , if you are able to create a ceph block device, then you will able to map it with rbd command , create filesystem, and mount it - then you can measure the device io perf with : sysstat , iostas, iotop, dstat, vmastat or even with sar
