![]() ![]() We are used to hearing that “3D printing is the only way,” and this is another one of those projects. It’s an incredible example of some unthinkably modern ways to retain technologies of the past. Once you understand where to point the tip of the sundial (North or South?), the rest of the project seems accessible, as Julldozer of Mojoptix has done most of the hard work already for the rest of us. We are using 5 Synology NAS (headquarter and 4 remote sites) to store the 'home directory' of our (150) users on the network. On the NAS we use a share called 'homedir' containing subdirectories for every user (with appropriate rights of course) Then, as part of our users are moving between sites, we need to synchronize the whole 'homedir' folder between our 5 NAS, so whenever the user moves to another location (s)he will find their environment and data promptly. To achieve this behavior, we configured Cloud Station Server (on the central NAS) and Cloud Station ShareSync (on the 4 remote NAS), with a 2-way sync. This way, the data and changes get replicated everywhere. NOTE: users are obviously connected to ONE NAS at a time, therefore writing changes to only that NAS. Changes are then replicated to the 4 other NAS automatically.īUT, as soon as we implemented Cloud Station, SMB performance (from the users to the 'homedir' share) DROPPED from 100 MB/s to 40-50 MB/s on the central NAS (remote NAS are OK). Our central NAS is a RS-815+ with a SSD cache, we use RAID5ĭS-916+ on remote sites, all software is up-to-date Obviously, users started to complain about slow performance. We've been in touch with Synology support for 2 weeks now, but they're not helping. Thank you Daniel for your helpful answer and the link to the white paper ! :-) Any idea ?Ī huge thank you for your thoughts / help on this ! The level one technician currently assigned doesn't have the necessary skills unfortunately and there's no way to escalate (so far)ġ) anyone with a similar environment/experience ?Ģ) we've been looking for a (synology)shell command to stop/restart correctly the sync service, the goal is to stop it during working hours (cron or else), but did not find it. I wasn't aware such a guide would exist, and Synology support didn't give out that information. Except our users are directly connected to the NAS via SMB (their home folder is network based) instead of using Cloud Station Drive (useless in our environment) Yes, we are using multi-site coordination, exactly as described in the white paper. There is NO WAY to adjust the sync schedule through the GUI, hence my question to do it through shell. But I didn't find any command for this matter. Not being able to SCHEDULE synchronization is clearly THE big issue.īecause of that lack of functionality, synchronization is effectively done almost continuously. Although Synology manages to handle bandwidth in a smart way, the volume is still being accessed continuously. ![]() Therefore, I believe this is the cause of the performance drop, along with the indexation requirements, but I cannot get Synology support to provide any help in what to do to improve this or to validate our architecture. ![]() Ubiquiti stuff - ACTUALLY IN STOCK right now! Networking.Our central NAS is a quad-core Intel Atom, as mentioned in the white paper. Heads up for those who are struggling to find Ubiquiti gear in stock.I just found Wifi6 Lites in stock for $99 at store.ui.com. They also had the 24 Port PoE switches in stock. What side do you fight for in the console wars? Holidays.Looks like they must have just got a shipment in as a lot of what's usually. In that box was a delightful collection of metal Spark! Pro Series - July 8th 2022 Spiceworks OriginalsĪre of a worn cardboard box.The Internet tells me that July 8th is Video Game Day, and that got me thinking of the history of Video Games, specifically the different console wars that have gone on.Probably the first console war was Coleco/Atari/Nintendo who all released consoles in. ![]()
