  • Why does na-arc-3 have such poor network performance to the other na-arc nodes?
    • ping na-arc-[1,2,4,5] with anything larger than -s 1490 drops all packets
    • iperf tests show 10Gb/s between the VM host of na-arc-3 (naasc-vs-3 p5p1.120) and the VM host of na-arc-5 (naasc-vs-5 p2p1.120).  So it isn't a bad card in either of the VM hosts.
    • iptables on na-arc-3 looks different than iptables on na-arc-[2,3,5].  na-arc-1 also looks a bit different.
    • docker_gwbridge interface on na-arc-[1,2,4,5] shows NO_CARRIER but not on na-arc-3.
    • na-arc-3 has a veth10fd1da@if37 interface.  None of the other na-arc-* nodes have a veth interface.
  • Why is na-arc-5 using qdisc pfifo_fast instead of qdisc_fq_codel for eth0? (see ip addr)
  • Is putting all the 1Gb/s production docker swarm nodes on the same ASIC on the same Fabric Extender of the cv-nexus switch a good idea?
    • I am thinking it does not matter because it looks like the production docker swarm nodes use the 10Gb/s network which is on cv-nexus9k
  • Why does natest-arc-3 have ens3 instead of eth0 and why is its speed 100Mb/s?
    • virsh domiflist natest-arc-3 shows the Model as rtl8139 instead of virtio
    • When I run ethtool eth0 on nar-arc-{1..5} natest-arc-{1..2} as root, the result is just Link detected: yes instead of the full report with speed while na-arc-3 shows 100Mb/s.
  • Can we set up a test archive query that uses the "other" docker swarm which in this case would be the production swarm (na-arc-*)?

To Do

  1. Fix Recreate na-arc-3 so it gets the same performance as other na-arc-* nodes which is apparently at least 10Gb/s. (pmurphy)
  2. Launch services on production swarm (sbooth)
  3. Test the production docker swarm with a test web interface. (lsharp)
  4. ask other ARC if they use MTU 9000 on 10Gb. (krowe)
  5. Switch the production docker swarm back to MTU 1500 since the test docker swarm uses MTU 1500 and is performing better.
  6. Fix natest-arc-3 so it's NIC Model is virtio instead of rtl8139
