Rule out hard disk performance as bottleneck in elasticsearch indexing [on hold]

our application is using elasticsearch for log indexing, and we've got very different performance on similar machines (All CentOs7). So my question is, how to i rule out the bottleneck is the hard disk? there is barely IO wait in the slow installation (very high load + cpu usage).



Here's a snapshot:



iostat 5



Linux 3.10.0-693.2.2.el7.centos.plus.x86_64 (tracer2) 2018-10-02 _x86_64_ (8 CPU)

avg-cpu: %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle
35,51 22,29 2,01 0,22 0,00 39,96

Device: tps kB_read/s kB_wrtn/s kB_read kB_wrtn
sda 181,99 125,30 11490,17 129009633 11830256952

avg-cpu: %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle
43,15 50,56 2,83 0,30 0,00 3,16

Device: tps kB_read/s kB_wrtn/s kB_read kB_wrtn
sda 322,60 0,00 14434,40 0 72172

avg-cpu: %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle

Device: tps kB_read/s kB_wrtn/s kB_read kB_wrtn
sda 283,40 0,00 5685,60 0 28428

avg-cpu: %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle
52,77 43,05 2,36 0,03 0,00 1,80

Device: tps kB_read/s kB_wrtn/s kB_read kB_wrtn
sda 320,40 0,00 31557,60 0 157788


so is this enough to rule out HD as the troublemaker?

    That kind of question is barely answerable. In this case we would need the following information: complete description of the hardware including motherboard / connector to disk / type of disk / how much are they ? in which Raid configuration, What are the raw disk IO ? I could Ask a dozen more question and if you answered them perfectly, I would probably not be able to answer you yet. I think your question needs too much expertise and debate to be answered in that kind of site. Finding bottle neck in a system can be real hard. I would advise you to use atsar it's a great monitoring tool.

  • Thank you, can't find anything about atsar, could you provide a link? what's a good tool for measuring raw disk IO?
