2 Talk Outline Learning Objectives Use cases of shadow migration in ZFSSA Shadow migration at a high level Optimization issues for higher performance Summary 2

3 Need of Data (File System) Migration Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance (ZFSSA) Application-engineered storage system designed to provide unique Oracle software integration with storage performance and efficiency How do users migrate their data (file systems) easily to their new storage? 3

4 Different Approaches for Data Migration Synchronization Interposition 4

5 Synchronization Approach (thru rsync) Copy data from old fs ( old ) to new fs ( new ) while data is still being accessed by clients through old If diff old & new gets smaller, copy the last diff & new is in service New file server / Old file server / usr New file system home (/) d1 bin synch ing last usr Current file system home (/) d1 bin f1 f2 (takes time..) f1 f2 5

6 Synchronization Approach (thru rsync) No additional I/O delay Substantial downtime if a large amount of change is committed immediately before the scheduled downtime During migration, the new server is idle Coordinating across multiple file systems is burdensome, where each migration will take a different amount of time 6

7 Interposition Approach Device is placed in between old/new & client Interposing device performs background migration from old to new, transparently to the clients When data is not in new, it s migrated from old (ondemand migration) 7

8 Interposition Approach Drastically reduced downtime New physical machine with additional costs & management overhead New point of failure within the system I/O latency when accessing not-yet-migrated data; the migration appliance interposes on already migrated data, incurring extra latency 8

9 Shadow Migration is Software-based Interposing Device No special hardware; embedded in VFS (ZFSSA/Solaris) A means of migrating legacy to ZFSSA (or Solaris server) Instant switchover Mitigated I/O latency 9

10 Use Cases of Data (File Systems) Migration Data migration from legacy platform Migration between different storage pools 10

11 Data Migration from Legacy System Access data immediately thru ZFSSA (Instant switchover) New data will be stored in ZFSSA Standard network file system protocol (NFS); no special device required 11

12 Data Migration between Different Storage Pools To perform storage capacity planning, I/O workload balancing, using encrypted file system Different storage characteristics (device layout, data redundancy, etc) for storage pool 12

13 Talk Outline Use cases of shadow migration in ZFSSA Shadow migration at a high level Optimization issues for higher performance Summary 13

14 Shadow Migration New file system is shadow of old file system Instant switchover: Data would be all accessible & modifiable thru the new one once created usr New file system New file server f1 / home (/) d1 f2 bin Instant switchover migrating background on-demand Old file system Old file server usr f1 / home (/) d1 f2 bin 14

15 Migrating Directory (Read Dir) Shadow directory has SUNWshadow attribute Block while stub (no content) of all entries under the directory is migrated New New file server usr SUNWshadow SUNWshadow f1 / home (/) d1 read.dir d1 f2 bin dir info (f1, f2) migrating stub info (f1) (f2) (perm,acl, size) Old Old file server usr f1 / home (/) d1 f2 bin 15

16 Migrating Regular File (Read File) Shadow file additionally has SUNWShadow.map Block while some or all of data is transferred Migration completes when map gets empty New New file server usr / home (/) read bin f1 f2 Old Old file server usr / home (/) bin d1 migrating d1 SUNWshadow content (f1) (f2) f1 f1 f2 range[0..77] range[0..9] SUNWshadow.map [ ] [ ] SUNWshadow.map [0. 77] f1 f2 16

17 Migrating Regular File (Write File) Full replace or truncate means nothing to migrate Partial write requires blocking to read unmodified part write f1 f2 New file server / Old file server / New usr home (/) bin Old usr home (/) bin d1 f1 f1 f2 f2 migrating unmodified part f1 d1 f2 SUNWshadow SUNWshadow.map [32 77] 17

18 Connecting Old FS to New FS Original (old) file system is mounted at the same time we create or mount our shadow (new) of it Shadow source (old) is established in a URI descriptor property of the target dataset at creation zfs create o shadow=nfs://old-server/export/old-fs tank/new-fs zfs create o shadow=file://export/old-fs tank/new-fs 18

19 Shadowd Background Migration Reading all the entries from top (root) to bottom in background efficiently & reliably while hoping to migrate entry prior to its access Multiple worker threads (up to 64) to migrate data Trying to migrate more recently accessed one first Resumable from the point where interrupted I/O timed out when nfs source gets irresponsive Ensure migrating everything & cleaning up when finished 19

20 Talk Outline Use cases of shadow migration in ZFSSA Shadow migration at a high level Optimization issues for higher performance Summary 20

21 In General, Shadow Migration Performance Depends on Performance of the legacy device File size & # of files Access pattern of existing data during migration Network contention & configuration Destination storage pool configuration Log & cache configuration 21

22 Current Performance-aware Design Multiple worker threads for background migration Skipping holes (zeros) when migrating a file (becoming a sparse file at a new fs) Prioritized background migration (more recently accessed files/directories first) Conversely, for higher reliability, migrated data & attributes are written to disk synchronously 22

23 Toward Higher Performance Low Hanging Fruit More worker threads (64+) For synchronous writes, Use log disks (write-back cache) in storage pool Collapse multiple synchronous writes into one Network performance optimization Use dedicated network Tune TCP parameters & use different MTU size 23

24 Toward Higher Performance High Hanging Fruit Speed up big directory migration (1M small entries) Faster big file migration (one huge entry) Single-threaded no improvement with more threads Smarter prioritized background migration Pre-staged data migration (hybrid approach) 24

25 Multi-threaded Big Directory & File Migration Since threads are shared resource: When to use multiple threads? Multiple threads might not be needed if file size or # of entries is less than threshold How many threads are used? Using more threads does not help if the performance has been already saturated (due to serialization) 25

26 How Many Threads are Used? Big File Migration Reading data from source runs in parallel The remaining part is mostly serialized Writing migrated data to a file (synchronous write) Updating SUNWshadow.map (synchronous write) New file server [0..49] Thread 1 Old file server SUNWshadow SUNWshadow.map f1 f1 f1 [ ] [50..99] [empty] [50.99] Thread 2 26

27 Big File Migration Performance Improvement No substantial gain observed from 3 threads Max. 2 threads per migration (1.8x gain) Threshold ( ) # of threads Two ZFSSA s (ZS3-2) connected thru 10GbE Storage pool (DE2-24P) with log disks 27

28 Big File Migration Performance Improvement Two threads per migration (1.8x) Larger buffer for data read from source (KB MB) 3.6x 2.5x 4.1x 8 threads in shared pool by default 28

29 How Many Threads are Used? Big Directory Migration Reading dir entries (VOP_READDIR) from the source is currently serialized The remaining part mostly runs in parallel Each directory entry can be migrated concurrently Creating the entry itself & creating SUNWshadow New file server Thread 2 SUNWshadow d1 f1 f2 Thread 1 SUNWshadow f1 f2 SUNWshadow stub info (f1) (perm,acl, size) Readdir stub info (f2) (perm,acl, size) Old file server d1 f1 f2 29

30 Big Directory Migration Performance Improvement Scales better than big file migration (~6x gain) Using 6-7 threads is a sweet-spot Threshold ( ) # of threads 30

31 Another Approach (Verification) Determining # of Threads to be Used Given each file or directory migration function consisting of [s,p], where s : the time that should be serialized p : the remaining time that can be parallelized Minimum # of threads n min = max{n G (n) > } to assure a given performance gain slope ( ), where G(n) : expected performance gain with n threads is computed from [1+d]/[1+d/n], where d=p/s G (n) : first order derivative (slope) of G(n) 31

32 Toward Higher Performance High Hanging Fruit Speed up big directory migration (1M small entries) Faster big file migration (one big-sized entry) Smarter prioritized background migration Presently, more recently accessed files/directories first Pre-staged data migration Synchronization + Interposition approaches Almost zero additional I/O delay 32

33 Talk Outline Use cases of shadow migration in ZFSSA Shadow migration at a high level Optimization issues for higher performance Summary 33

34 Shadow Migration Software-based interposing device (built-in feature in ZFSSA) with instant switchover for data migration Also available in Solaris Has been evolving with new features & higher performance Pre-staged data migration in research 34
