Issue

 

Users may experience high latency in FlexGroup volumes, manifesting as:

  • Elevated CPU D-blade latency.
  • High CIFS or NFS latency affecting multiple constituents across nodes.
  • Hung NFS RPC calls or stalled application processes dependent on file system operations.


Example latency output from a cluster:
cluster01::*> system node run -node node-01 -command "wafltop show -v latency -i 10 -n 10"
