Re: Node down detection protocol in QNet
Hiya. Sorry about the delay responding, I was
out of town.
tx_ticks and tx_retries is definitely what you
want to use at the command line, to change the
timeout to detect a dead node, when traffic is
being transmitted.
The defaults work out to 10 seconds, which may
be too conservative for you. Try dropping tx_retries from 25 to 5 and see if that helps.
As a test, talk to a node that you know is up,
via something like "ls /net/fubar" then unplug
your network cable, and run "ls /net/fubar" again.
You should see a delay, then something like
this:
ls: Host is down (/net/fubar/)
At that point, you can do a:
# cat /proc/qnetstats
which will tell you exactly what happened,
and when. Hope this helps!
