DRX is configured through the drbd.conf and drx.conf files.

Table of Contents


DRX requires configuration of individual replication resources and global settings required to perform drx. Configuration for individual resources is done in the proxy section of each replication configuration file, and global settings are configured through the drx.conf file.

All configuration below is based on working with Block Replication (BSR). For integration with File Replication (FSR), see Configuring file replication in the appendix.

  • If BSR is installed locally, you do not need to change the path to its configuration file as DRX automatically recognizes it through an environment variable. /etc/bsr.conf is the default path and you can change the path be changed through drx.conf.
  • If you are adjusting DRX's own options, create a drx.conf file. You do not need to create it unless it is a special case.

4.1. Configuration files

DRX is recommended to unify the configuration file of each node into the same "drbd.conf" file for the sake of management but it is not mandatory, and configuration contents of each node can be changed according to the configuration method, and the configuration file name, Can be specified separately. The major configuration items of DRX are as follows.

  • Connection configuration: Setting It describes replication connections, setting buffer sizes and options, etc. By default, it's written in the same format as the BSR configuration file, and you'll usually end up modifying some of the contents of bsr.conf that was already written when BSR was installed locally (see Format of the BSR configuration file).


Configuration Properties

The main configuration properties are:

  • Connections: Set the DRX inbound IP and outbound IP address addresses to work with DRBDreplication.
  • Buffer ConfigurationBuffers: Set buffer size per resource (channel)
    • memlimit
    • rx-memlimit
  • Compression/Encryption Configuration: Setting the Set compression/encryption function features ON/OFF

DRX sets the buffer size in the "proxy" section within the DRBD replication configuration file and sets the DRX IP address in the "proxy on" section within the host section. Compression and encryption settings are described in the plugin subsection in within the proxy section. The following Below is a the basic DRX configuration form, with slightly different some differences between 1:1 single replication and 1:N multi-replication configurationsintegration.

Dedicated server configuration

기본적으로 구성파일은 양 노드, DRX 노드 모두 동일하게 구성하나, 전용서버의 특성상 이 기종 노드 즉 WDRBD 노드와 Linux DRBD 노드들을 모두 DRX에서 수용하려면 전용서버에 설치된 drbd-utils 의 특성에 맞게 DRX config를 수정할 필요가 있습니다. 구성 절차는 하기 기술된 내용에 준하며 구성예제는 Linux 전용서버를 기준으로 합니다.

...

By default, the configuration file is the same for both nodes and DRX nodes, but due to the nature of dedicated servers, DRX config must be modified to accommodate both Windows and Linux nodes in DRX. The configuration procedure is as described below, and the example configuration is based on a Linux dedicated server.

drx.conf

DRBD 구성과는 별개로 DRX 내부 속성을 설정할 수 있습니다. 보통의 경우는 DRX 기본 설정으로 동작하기 때문에 속성파일을 제공할 필요가 없습니다. 이 속성은 DRX가 시작될 때 적용되고, DRX 속성 파일은 다음 속성표의 내용을 참고하여 작성합니다.

...

Apart from the BSR configuration, you can set DRX internal behavior properties, which have the meaning of global settings that are applied when DRX starts. In most cases, you do not need to modify the drx.conf file, as DRX default settings will work. Use the following table of properties as a guide.

원격 DRX와 연결 후, 초기화 패킷을 주고 받는 동안의 타임아웃 값(단위: 초)

(※ 네트워크 환경에 따라 연결 지연이 있을 수 있으므로 연결이 원활하지 않을 때 늘릴 것을 권장)

...

파일로 저장되는 로그 레벨 지정

  • 위치: 설치 경로의 logs 폴더에 저장

...

off로 설정시 연결을 위해서 대기(Listen)하기위해 매칭(bind)하는 IP가 0.0.0.0(모든 IP 수신)으로 설정됩니다.

...

  • file name: "drx.conf"
  • 기본 위치: drx 설치 경로
  • 주의: 파일의 시작 부분에 "[global]  section"을 기술해야 함

...

  • 환경설정의 "base-dir/lang"에 위치(미지정 시 실행파일 하부에 위치)
  • "korean.ini"나 "english.ini" 등과 같은 방법으로 파일 생성(utf8 파일)
    예)"korean.ini" 설정

...

DRX 설치 경로

...

로그 저장이나 언어 설정과 관련한 파일이 있는 디렉터리의 상위 디렉터리로 지정

(미지정 시 DRX를 설치한 경로로 자동 지정됨)

...

Windows:

  • ../etc/drbd.conf

Linux:

  • /etc/drbd.conf

...

소켓 connect 또는 listen 동작에서 사용하는 타임아웃 값(단위: 초)

(※ 네트워크 환경에 따라 연결 지연이 있을 수 있으므로 연결이 원활하지 않을 때 늘릴 것을 권장)

  • default path: DRX Installed path
  • Caution: [global] section should be described at the beginning of the file

  • Located in "base-dir/lang" of the configuration.
  • ex) korean.ini

DRX install path

Default path where DRX is installed

bsr-conf-path

Windows:

  • ../etc/bsr.conf

Linux:

  • /etc/bsr.conf
Specify the path to bsr.conf
fsr-conf-path

Windows:

  • ../etc/bsr.conf

Linux:

  • /etc/bsr.conf
Specify the path to fsr.conf
connect-timeout10

Timeout value in seconds after connecting to a remote DRX, while sending and receiving initialization packets

bwlimit0 (unlimited)Bandwidth limit on sending (incoming bandwidth controlled by bwlimit value on remote DRX)
ip-verificationon

on: Allow only the IP connections set in dbd.conf.
off: Allow connections for all IPs.

ulimit-open-files-count0

Applies to Linux only and sets the number of files the process can open.

Values : -1 (10240), 0 (same as system setting), Specify yourself (1-65536)

ipc-port9100Specify internal ipc port values for the CLI to control the drx (supported in version 1.3.1 and later).
logloglevel-fileinfo

Specify the log level that is written as a file

  • Location: stored in the logs folder of the installation path
loglevel-consoleinfoSpecify the log level that is output to the screen in foreground mode
logfile-max-size10MFile size limit per log file
logfile-max-count10Maximum number of log files kept by type
performance-logoffWhether to save performance statistics log
compress/encrypt



block-size63K

Block size to be used for compression/encryption

  • Note: The size of the transfer buffer for compression/encryption is set to twice the block-size value and is set to 1MB maximum.
min-raw-block-size1K
압축/암호화 설정시에도 평문으로 보낼 minimum size※ 튜닝과 디버깅의 용도이므로 변경하는 것을 권장하지 않습니다
Minimal packet size to send as plain text even when compression/encryption is set.
process-thread-count-1 (auto)

멀티쓰레드 패킷 처리시 사용할 쓰레드 개수. 

Number of threads to use when processing multi-thread packets.

※ It is intended for tuning and debugging, so it is not recommended to make any changes.
