So InfoSight reported this alert: "FC-10k tier has disks exceeding low water mark of recommended IOPS" 3Par is a 7200 with 28 10K FC disks.. The low IOPS threshold is 150 while the high is 250.. NinjaStar has it getting 3,000 I/O. All VV are RAID5.. Running statvv throughout the day sees averages around 1,500 IO with a few high spikes and a few low as well.. Is this alert telling me that the SAN is trying to push more IO but the disks are only giving it <100 when they should be giving over 150?? Thanks |

If it's only some disks it might be a hotspot, maybe one particular LUN with heavy writes keeping the same few disks really busy. Maybe try looking from the other side, statpd to find the busy disks. If it is a hot LUN maybe move to a SSD tier if available or QOS it if it's not important. I've got a few hot disks but the cause was easy to find, couple of LUNs doing 7.5k iops of writes, which of course they mirror.... but can the OS/App teams figure out what it is or why it's doing it..... |
