Setting Up Load Balancing
You can select whether to enable load balancing.
The following is an example of using a command to set load balancing.
# /opt/DynamicLinkManager/bin/dlnkmgr set -lb on -lbtype exlio
To enable load balancing, specify on. Specify off otherwise. When you set
on, specify one of the following algorithm values after the -lbtype option:
• rr for the Round Robin algorithm
• exrr for the Extended Round Robin algorithm
• lio for the Least I/Os algorithm
• exlio for the Extended Least I/Os algorithm
• lbk for the Least Blocks. algorithm
• exlbk for the Extended Least Blocks algorithm
The type of algorithm specified by the -lbtype parameter remains stored in
the system, even if, you disable the load balancing function by specifying -lb
off. If you decide to re-enable load balancing at a later time, and you do not
specify an algorithm, load balancing will still be executed by using the
algorithm that was previously specified.
