HI Team,

We have installed s3fs package (s3fs-fuse-1.94-1.el7.x86_64) on SQT and Productin environment. Post mounting we oberved that CPU and MEM utilization are fluctuating and they are not behaving normal. Below have provided the proceadure we mounted s3fs bucket.

s3fs mmis-doclinks-prod /mmis-cos-temp -o allow_other -o url=https://s3.private.au-syd.cloud-object-storage.appdomain.cloud -o passwd_file=/opt/s3fs/credentials

Later came to know that now s3fs pakage installation is outdated and we need to use s3fs plugins.

Regarding this need some information from your team on below points

  1. Where, when and how to get the s3fs plugins
  2. Is it freeware or paid version
  3. Does it require downtime post installation
  4. How will be the moutn bucket performance or do we need to define some parameters on configaration file
  5. As the s3fs bucket we has huge data we do not want any lethency, high cpu or huge memory to be consumed
  6. Kindly guide us with step by step installation and confugaration proceadure

Thanks & Regards chethan kyndryl
