  • ONTAP 9
  • AFF Series
  • FAS Systems
  • CVO
  • Quality of Service (QoS)

Issue

  • QoS is used to help regulate workloads competing for finite Cluster CPU and Disk resources

  • Elevated LUN /volume/Qtree latency observed once QoS limits are reached
    • As workloads change, QoS limits may need to be adjusted to help manage client performance expectations. 
  • May see this alert:  AIQUM Event alert,  Workload LUN latency threshold breached defined by Performance Service Level Policy
  • Audit logs shows the 
  • Delay center QoS Max will show high latency from CLI
