Large batches of small file copies are slower after migration from on-prem AFF to Azure CVO
Applies to
- CLOUD VOLUMES ONTAP
- ONTAP 9
Issue
- After migrating from on-premises ONTAP (AFF) to CVO in Azure, workloads that generate or write large batches of small files (e.g., statement generation jobs involving 15,000–50,000 files) experience significantly slower performance.
- Previously, such jobs completed in 1–4 hours; after migration, the same jobs take 8 or more hours to complete.
