In a heterogeneous environment, what is a recommended setting when multiple storage arrays are connected to VMware vSphere in addition to XtremIO X2?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

In a heterogeneous environment with multiple storage arrays connected to VMware vSphere, setting Disk.SchedQuantum to 64 is recommended.

This setting optimizes the scheduling of I/O requests and helps in balancing the load across different storage arrays.

Proper configuration of Disk.SchedQuantum enhances the performance and efficiency of the storage environment.

But wouldn't a higher value like C) XCOPY = 256 be more efficient?

D) Disk.SchedNumReqOustanding = 32? What is this, a setting for ants? My grandma could handle more than that!

Wait, did they say 'heterogeneous'? I thought we were talking about a homogeneous environment, like a nice, cozy little server room. I'm so confused right now.

A) fnic_max_qdepth = 128 sounds like the way to go in a heterogeneous environment. Keeps those storage arrays happy!
