| My MetaLAN performance from the VFibre is less than I expect. What can I do? | Dec-05-12 |
| Make sure your RAID is set with a 128k interleave with the ATTO RAID Config Utility. Anything larger will result in a gross mismatch of ethernet packet size and drive buffer size, adversely affecting storage access performance over Ethernet.
You can try increasing the buffer size on the 10G Ethernet card. The default is 500 read buffers and 500 write buffers. Try 2500 read buffers and 2500 write buffers.
If you are accessing large files, then turning on Jumbo Packets on both the VFibre and all the workstations may help increase performance. NOTE THAT JUMBO PACKETS NEED TO BE EITHER ON AND OFF ON ALL WORKSTATIONS AND THE VFIBRE, OR ELSE PERFORMANCE WILL GREATLY SUFFER FROM THE MISMATCH.
Try not to use any small ethernet hubs in your system. If you do, then turn off flow control on any port connected to a hub. Otherwise back pressure jamming signals may degrade overall performance for the segment connected to the hub. (Note that a hub is not the same as a non-blocking switch like the Sonnet GES-24 and GES-48, which readily support flow control.) |
