High port utilization leading to performance degradation
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- AFF system
Issue
- Found highly utilized port from NIC view in performance archive
- From
sysconfig -a
, port e11b on slot 11 and has a max bandwidth of 10Gb/s or approx. 1.1GB/s
- Divide transfer rate on saturated port e11b (342GiB) by 300 to get rate per second (PA data is collected in 5-minute intervals)
E.G - 342000 / 300 = 1140
- Confirmed port was fully saturated
