Hi everybody,
We're using a DELL PE 2850 with two RAID 1 arrays (and 1 Hotspare disk) and we're currently experiencing extremely high iowaits during i/o operations. This server is used to manage sources and compilations are extremely long.
Using dd to generate 1 to 10 GB file, top shows i/o going up to 350% in iowaits (the server has 4 logicial processors). Kernel used is 2.4.21-27ELsmp and I'm running out of idea to get a solution.
Anybody ?
