Hi Ankush:

You can check doc [1] , select ‘All-in-one (lowlatency) Controller’ for lowlatency , this is same all release r3 , r4 changes, if you want to use Simplex or Duplex system .

 

For multi Nodes setup , only worker nodes support low-latency.

 

There is no pre-requirement for a node to be a low-latency node .

 

I this there is no way to change node to low-latency node after installation except re-install.

Thanks.

Thank you for your response to this query. But I am still not clear on this. Are you saying that, the kernel-rt RPM will get installed only for “lowlatency” nodes?

If my understanding is correct then I have few more questions:

 

 

I have All-in-one-Duplex mode of deployment, both having “controller” personality  and “controller,worker” as subfunctions.

 

capabilities          | {u'stor_function': u'monitor', u'Personality': u'Controller-Active'}

capabilities          | {u'stor_function': u'monitor', u'Personality': u'Controller-Standby'}

personality           | controller

subfunctions          | controller,worker  

 

Regards,

Ankush

The kernel-rt RPM is installed on the “lowlatency” nodes. For AIO, you’d want to install AIO-lowlatency.

Hi,

 

I couldn’t find the rpm for rt-kernel. Is starlingx comes up with rt-kernel support or it need to be patched ?

 

Any pointer to get the rt-kernel support ?

 

software_version       | 20.06

I am using the latest green image: http://mirror.starlingx.cengn.ca/mirror/starlingx/master/centos/latest_green_build/outputs/iso/bootimage.iso

Required rt-kernel patch: kernel-rt-3.10.0-693.2.2.rt56.623.el7.x86_64

 

Thanks,

Ankush
