High ONTAP latency reported but not in qos statistics volume latency show
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- CIFS or NFS
Issue
- High latency is observed from ActiveIQ Unitified Manager or
qos statistics volume performance show
. - But running
qos statistics volume latency show
does not indicate a delay. - Both the clients and ONTAP report a high latency despite no obvious CPU or disk bottlenecks.

- There may be no delay centers showing any significant latency from
qos statistics volume latency show
, but client side reports high latency.
