Environment

Novell Filr 1.0.0
Novell Filr 1.0.1

Situation

If you have Filr configured in a clustered setup (i.e. more than one Filr appliances), memcached is enabled with only 1 thread. It is recommended that the default setting for the memcached threads should be increased to 4.

Resolution

On each Filr node in the cluster:
  1. Stop memcached
    rcmemcached stop
  2. Edit the file /etc/sysconfig/memcached and modify the following line:
    MEMCACHED_PARAMS="-m 1024 -d -l server.domainname"
    to add a -t 4 to the parameters as follows:
    MEMCACHED_PARAMS="-m 1024 -t 4 -d -l server.domainname"
  3. Save your changes from step 2 to /etc/sysconfig/memcached
  4. Start memcached
    rcmemcached start
