<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm glad that upgrading helped lower the I/O !<br>
I didn't realize you were still using 2.4; moving to 2.6 should lower the I/O again by changing the Database backend from BDB to TokyoCabinet.<br>
<br>
As for the warning message, it's because you mounted the /var/rudder/cfengine-community/state with mode 775 rather than 770
<br>
There's a typo in the blogpost, the entry to put in the /etc/fstab should be<o:p></o:p></p>
<pre># Tmpfs for the CFEngine state backend storage directory<o:p></o:p></pre>
<pre>tmpfs /var/cfengine/state tmpfs size=128M,nr_inodes=2k,mode=0770,noexec,nosuid,noatime,nodiratime 0 0<o:p></o:p></pre>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
(770 rather than 775)<br>
<br>
It should remove your warning message<br>
<br>
Nicolas<br>
