We are using the OpenStack Mitaka Cinder driver for EqualLogic to provide our test system with a variety of storage volumes.
The driver (according to logs) repeatedly issues calls to "pool select default show" that take (at best) around 20s each to complete - considerably longer on a busy system. Because of these delays, there is contention on the restricted number of SSH CLI sessions to the EQL.
My question here is whether that is a reasonable length of time for this command or whether there is an underlying performance issue with our system.
I have attached the full output of the command from a console session below which contains system config details, status and volume. The dynamic volumes being deleted/created are in the range of 20GB - 200GB. The large 1+TB volumes are long-living.
Any thoughts on this would be really appreciated. Thanks.
