Latency observed when a FlexGroup constituent goes full
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- FlexGroup volumes
Issue
- High latency is observed on a FlexGroup but the overall system latency is not very high.
- All of the FlexGroup constituents are more than 95% utilized and one constituent is full:

SVM-1 FlexGroup__0008 aggr_02 online RW 100TB 1.94TB 98%
- There is no option to increase the size of the constituents, as they are already at their maximum limit (100TB).
- Adding new constituents to the FlexGroup does not reduce the utilization of the full constituent.
