NFS, iSCSI, or FCP performance problems on Cisco UCS platforms
Applies to
- All FAS or AFF Platforms
- All E-Series Platforms
- All Solidfire Platforms
- Cisco UCS platforms
- VMware ESXi
- FCP, iSCSI, or NFS connectivity
Issue
- High latency is seen from the user end or from virtual machines, but network and storage response times do not show an issue.
- Example: ONTAP 9
qos statistics volume latency show
shows 1-10 ms of latency, but vSphere performance graphs may show 5-10 seconds of latency.- VMware may also show path flapping issues and users will see 30 seconds of latency or more then the i/o will recover.
