Now are they NIC’s 1 GbE or 10 GbE?

In my previous post we talked about how to figure out if the local drives on the X86 box are SSDs or HDD. Now this machine also has multiple NICs, 1 GbE and two 10 GbE. I plan on using the 1 GbE for management operations, and would like to use the 10 GbE for outbound(client) and ibound (storage/cluster) use.

Using the ethtool we can figure out the speed of the NIC’s

kinetic@paco1:~$ ethtool eth0 Settings for eth0:     Supported ports: [ TP ]     Supported link modes:   10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full                             100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full                             1000baseT/Full     Supported pause frame use: Symmetric     Supports auto-negotiation: Yes     Advertised link modes:  10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full                             100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full                             1000baseT/Full     Advertised pause frame use: No     Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes     Speed: 1000Mb/s     Duplex: Full     Port: Twisted Pair     PHYAD: 1     Transceiver: internal     Auto-negotiation: on     MDI-X: on (auto) Cannot get wake-on-lan settings: Operation not permitted     Current message level: 0x00000007 (7)                    drv probe link     Link detected: yes kinetic@paco1:~$ ethtool p513p2 Settings for p513p2:     Supported ports: [ FIBRE ]     Supported link modes:   10000baseT/Full     Supported pause frame use: No     Supports auto-negotiation: No     Advertised link modes:  10000baseT/Full     Advertised pause frame use: No     Advertised auto-negotiation: No     Speed: 10000Mb/s     Duplex: Full     Port: Direct Attach Copper     PHYAD: 0     Transceiver: external     Auto-negotiation: off Cannot get wake-on-lan settings: Operation not permitted     Current message level: 0x00000007 (7)                    drv probe link     Link detected: yes

Another useful tool is the lspci.

kinetic@paco1:~$ lspci -vv | grep -i ethernet 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01) 02:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01) 02:00.2 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01) 02:00.3 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I350 Gigabit Network Connection (rev 01) 04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Network Connection (rev 01) 04:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Network Connection (rev 01)

Now lets just redirect all the o/p from lspci and have a look at it.

Are the disks HDDs or SSDs?

I was given a X86 system running Ubuntu that had some local disks, some of which were HDDs while the other were SSDs. My plan is to use the SSD's for the account and container data of the Swift deployment.

kinetic@paco1:~$ uname -a Linux paco1 3.13.0-32-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 15 03:51:08 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

To find out which are HDD and which are SSD do the following.

kinetic@paco1:~$ cat /sys/block/sda/queue/rotational 1 kinetic@paco1:~$ cat /sys/block/sdb/queue/rotational 0 kinetic@paco1:~$ cat /sys/block/sdc/queue/rotational 0 kinetic@paco1:~$ cat /sys/block/sdd/queue/rotational 0

The 1 indicates a HDD and 0 indicates SSD


 Now that I know which are SSDs and which are HDDs. Here is how I got detailed information on the HDD and SSD
