Latency seen on Windows client on SQL Index Rebuild for a DB on 16 LUNs from CVO-HA
Applies to
- Microsoft Structured Query Language (MS SQL) Index Rebuild
- SQL Database (DB) ISCSI LUNs on CVO
- read latency on Client side
- Microsoft Azure
- Cloud Volumes ONTAP High Availability (CVO HA)
- Active-Passive LUN distribution on CVO
- Windows client and Azure CVO in same vNET and no firewall
- CVO HA NICs for ISCSI fine
Issue
- ISCSI read latency upto 15 to 20ms seen on Windows client on SQL Index Rebuild for a DB spread on 16 LUNs from CVO-HA.
- LUNs are configured one each per volume and all volumes located on one node on CVO-HA in active passive configuration.
- CVO side latency measured from disks to network layers shows average of 5ms.
- Packet traces between windows client and Azure CVO HA showed packet drops and old congestion control in play.
