Readynas 2100 with esxi 4.1 peak every hour
Hi!
I have noticed that i have a hugh latency on my virtual machine disks that are located on readynas 2100 over iSCSI. iSCSI is running on a separate network/switch HP gigabit. The pattern is every hour a peak occurs on all VMFS volumes (i have 4) on the readynas 2100. I have added das storage and also started my old Open-E appliance. Look at the image and you can see the difference. Before i connected das and Open-E storage i had all my vm on the 2100 and then the latency could rise to 160ms in latency. I hade a crash recently on one machine that is a fileserver. I guess i overloaded the 2100. I only use the 2100 for virtualmachines and nothing else is activated.
Nas01-04 is the Readynas 2100 and i run 17 vm´s now the other 10 vm´s is located on either DAS or the open-e and their latency is ok. Does Redaynas 2100 do some kind of indexwork every hour that could explain the pattern?
