Max, when I setup my servers the first thing I do is setup Jumbo frames, so I decided to double check my results. Seems like a gremlin might have changed my Jumbo Frame settingsMax (staff) wrote:2 Camelay,
Fixed path is not an option, HA benefits from Round Robin since it can use both pathes for reading the data. Fixed path should be avoided because it slows down the failover.
By the way, I've seen a similar performance drop with non-equal jumbo frames on the SAN servers. Could you please check the values in both device properties, and HP network utility (if used)

I'm trying to wrap my head around this config and I've got some questions:
1. What OS is used on the storage nodes?
2. How is the iSCSI storage connected to the guest VMs? (The storage showing the above mentioned strange patterns)
a. iSCSI target is connected to the Hyper-V host, a CSV is created and VMs fully reside on the CSV
b. iSCSI target is connected to the VM directly
3. Are there any Virtual adapters used for iSCSI traffic (this can be checked in the iSCSI initiator session properties)?

camealy, could you please be a little bit more specific?camealy wrote:-I have two HA nodes each running 2008 R2 (10Gb sync channel)
-I have 2x 1GB through two switches (mpio round robin) from each 2008 R2 host in the cluster, CSV's that the 2008 R2 VM's live on
-no
You have mentioned that you achieved good results with WS 2003. Was it VM or physical machine?camealy wrote:What do you want to know? I answered your questions.

Also, Gents, can you please tell us if you have used the cacheing? If yes, then what exactly and how much?
Thank you
