Help: IO policy setting?

Yakooza

Hi,
I am new to VPS hosting. I was playing with Virtualizor and wanted to know what is the best to prevent from Hard drive abuse and also not giving a crap performance to the user? Could you please share your experience on these settings? What number should I set for SSD RAID1 and Spinning RAID1 HDD?

Disk Caching: on Writeback?
I/O Policy: On default. Native and Threads are available as well
and value for these?
Total I/O's per sec
Read Mega Byte's/s
Write Mega Byte's/s

I did search on these values but unfortunately I could not find much help.

@cubedata Is it related to IO policy?

I believe what @cubedata was trying to say is that Winter is a hard time of year to setup IO Policy. Summer is generally when you will have an easier time setting those up properly.

I know we all like to poke fun at new/unknowledgeable hosts for asking seemingly (?) trivial questions.. asking to be spoon fed. But the OP here stated that he made reasonable attempts to Google and is humbly here asking for help..

Let’s troll first - answer his question after?

(This is in no way related to my personal want to be spoonfed secrets about IO limits)

How do I tune a database for the best thoroughput?

How do I diversify my portfolio to have the best return while still keeping fairly conservative holdings?

Does it taste great, or is it less filling?

There is no answer other than to play with things and learn what works for your specific circumstance.

If you want a quick cut-n-paste response, there are plenty of halfassed MySQL tutorials around there that claim to be the do-all, be-all.

Without knowing the disk subsystem, how it's laid out, what the controller is, etc- all we can do is speculate and shrug. With that information, we can do just as much research as the OP hasn't.

Invalid. Please phrase your answer in the form of positive integer (in terms of Mega Bytes).
