Hello friends,
I have an Equallogic PS4100X which is connected to a two switches. These switches are connected with link aggregation (3 x 1Gb cables).
I am using RAID50 with 24 disks.
On these same switches, I have VLANs to track network traffic. Isolating including the ISCSI VLAN and the VLAN from the server network.
My entire VMware hosts connection network is 1Gb.
I have LUNs for groups of virtual, neighboring servers to avoid allocating all VMs on a single LUN LARGE.
Some virtual servers use provisioned disks and some fixed disks.
My environment is a VMware 5.5.
I have noticed a slow startup of virtual servers and even some applications.
I would like to know how I see how the storage performance is. I'm not sure if I check into VMware or if it's on Equallogic.
I think I'm starting to have a performance problem with Equallogic, but I'd like to see that.
Thank you.
