Setting Up Load Balancing
You can select whether to enable load balancing.
The following is an example of using a command to set load balancing.
# /opt/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr set -lb on -lbtype exlio
To enable load balancing, specify on. Specify off otherwise. When you set
on, specify one of the following algorithm values after the -lbtype option:
•
rr for the Round Robin algorithm
•
exrr for the Extended Round Robin algorithm
•
lio for the Least I/Os algorithm
•
exlio for the Extended Least I/Os algorithm
•
lbk for the Least Blocks. algorithm
•
exlbk for the Extended Least Blocks algorithm
The type of algorithm specified by the -lbtype parameter remains stored in
the system, even if, you disable the load balancing function by specifying -lb
off. If you decide to re-enable load balancing at a later time, and you do not
specify an algorithm, load balancing will still be executed by using the
algorithm that was previously specified.
Setting Up Path Health Checking
You can choose whether you want to use path health checking.
The following is an example of using a command to enable path health
checking.
