Issue
- Latency seen while copying files from local disk to NetApp lun.
- There is no latency seen while copying the same files to other storage lun like Hitachi.
- No latency found on the lun from Perf archives collected during the issue time.
- EMS logs on storage looks clean too without any issues reported.
- No issues seen on the NetApp ports or lifs either
- In order to isolate this, test lun was created and same issue was seen on the test lun as well, which indicated the issue is above the storage or lun layer.
