主机的IOPS需求转换成硬盘实际IOPS负载
首先需要知道I/O中读操作(Read)与写操作(Write)所占的百分比。
然后通过下列公式,将主机的IOPS需求转换成硬盘实际IOPS负载:
RAID类型 公式
RAID 5和3 Drive IOPS = Read IOPS + 4*Write IOPS
RAID 6 Drive IOPS = Read IOPS + 6*Write IOPS
RAID 1和10 Drive IOPS = Read IOPS + 2*Write IOPS
假定4500 IOPS中读/写比是2:1,则不同RAID类型Drive IOPS要求分别如下:
RAID 10: (2/3)*4500 + 2*(1/3)*4500 = 6000 IOPS
RAID 5: (2/3)*4500 + 4*(1/3)*4500 = 9000 IOPS
RAID 6: (2/3)*4500 + 6*(1/3)*4500 = 12000 IOPS
再参照下表中不同类型硬盘单块IOPS参数,得出需要多少块硬盘:
硬盘类型 IOPS
Fibre Channel 15k rpm 180
SAS 15k rpm 180
Fibre Channel 10k rpm 140
SATA 7.2k rpm 80
SATA 5.4k rpm 40
Flash drive 2500
假定选用FC 15K RPM硬盘,则:
RAID 10: 6000/180 = 34 块
RAID 5: 9000/180 = 50 块
RAID 6: 12000/180 = 67 块
注:实际情况下还需考虑Vault Drivers (共5块)以及Hot Spares (建议每30块硬盘一个)。
