Deduplication is a technique for reducing the consumption of storage

resources by eliminating multiple copies of duplicate blocks. Compression
|

-takes the individual unique blocks and shrinks them with coding
|

-algorithms; these reduced blocks are then efficiently packed together into

storage layer above VDO) to physical block addresses (used by the storage
|
||||
layer under VDO). After deduplication, multiple logical block addresses
|
||||
may be mapped to the same physical block address; these are called shared
|

blocks and are reference-counted by the software.

+.SS 5. Usage of Discard/TRIM with a VDOLV
|
||||
+You can discard data on a VDO LV and reduce used blocks on a VDOPoolLV.
|
||||
+However, the current performance of discard operations is still not optimal
|
||||
+and takes a considerable amount of time and CPU.
|
||||
+Unless you really need it, you should avoid using discard.
|
||||
+
|
||||
+When a block device is going to be rewritten,
|
||||
+block will be automatically reused for new data.
|
||||
+Discard is useful in situations when it is known that the given portion of a VDO LV
|
||||
+is not going to be used and the discarded space can be used for block
|
||||
+provisioning in other regions of the VDO LV.
|
||||
+For the same reason, you should avoid using mkfs with discard for
|
||||
+a freshly created VDO LV to save a lot of time that this operation would
|
||||
+take otherwise as device after create empty.
|
||||
+.SS 6. Memory usage
|
||||
+The VDO target requires 370 MiB of RAM plus an additional 268 MiB
|
||||
+per each 1 TiB of physical storage managed by the volume.
|
||||
+
|
||||
+UDS requires a minimum of 250 MiB of RAM,
|
||||
+which is also the default amount that deduplication uses.
|
||||
+
|
||||
+The memory required for the UDS index is determined by the index type
|
||||
+and the required size of the deduplication window and
|
||||
+is controlled by the \fBallocation/vdo_use_sparse_index\fP setting.
|
||||
+
|
||||
+With enabled UDS sparse indexing, it relies on the temporal locality of data
|
||||
+and attempts to retain only the most relevant index entries in memory and
|
||||
+can maintain a deduplication window that is ten times larger
|
||||
+than with dense while using the same amount of memory.
|
||||
+
|
||||
+Although the sparse index provides the greatest coverage,
|
||||
+the dense index provides more deduplication advice.
|
||||
+For most workloads, given the same amount of memory,
|
||||
+the difference in deduplication rates between dense
|
||||
+and sparse indexes is negligible.
|
||||
+
|
||||
+A dense index with 1 GiB of RAM maintains a 1 TiB deduplication window,
|
||||
+while a sparse index with 1 GiB of RAM maintains a 10 TiB deduplication window.
|
||||
+In general, 1 GiB is sufficient for 4 TiB of physical space with
|
||||
+a dense index and 40 TiB with a sparse index.
|
||||
+.SS 7. Storage space requirements
|
||||
+You can configure a VDOPoolLV to use up to 256 TiB of physical storage.
|
||||
+Only a certain part of the physical storage is usable to store data.
|
||||
+This section provides the calculations to determine the usable size
|
||||
+of a VDO-managed volume.
|
||||
+
|
||||
+The VDO target requires storage for two types of VDO metadata and for the UDS index:
|
||||
+.TP
|
||||
+\(bu
|
||||
+The first type of VDO metadata uses approximately 1 MiB for each 4 GiB
|
||||
+of physical storage plus an additional 1 MiB per slab.
|
||||
+.TP
|
||||
+\(bu
|
||||
+The second type of VDO metadata consumes approximately 1.25 MiB
|
||||
+for each 1 GiB of logical storage, rounded up to the nearest slab.
|
||||
+.TP
|
||||
+\(bu
|
||||
+The amount of storage required for the UDS index depends on the type of index
|
||||
+and the amount of RAM allocated to the index. For each 1 GiB of RAM,
|
||||
+a dense UDS index uses 17 GiB of storage and a sparse UDS index will use
|
||||
+170 GiB of storage.
