CVO == Cloud Volumes Ontap, the software version of OnTap that you can run in thevarious CSP's (Cloud Service Providers) aka GCP, AWS, AzurePD == Persistent Disk, what GCP (Google Compute Platform) calls its, uh, persistent disks.And to answer Jeffs question, we've not done any CVO testing in GCP, so I can'tanswer the throughput questions.We have found that, in general, the VM Instance type that hosts the CVO instances matters,since the Instance type also determines networking connectivity.Disk type (in this case GCP PDs) matters, too; I'd test with Local SSD to see wherethat gets you.Lastly, Throughput is dependent on workload, which determines the IO pattern.Maybe create an FIO config that generates traffic close to what you expect, anduse that to drive various CVO configurations.-SkottieOn Fri, Aug 5, 2022 at 1:26 PM John Stoffel <john@stoffel.org> wrote:>>>>> "Jeff" == Jeff Mohler via Toasters <toasters@teaparty.net> writes:

Jeff, I know you're deep in the weeds, but for those of us who
aren't... can you spell out those acronyms please?
PD = Purple Dinosaur?
CVO = Cheery Victory Orange?

Yeah, you need to translate this section as well please. Or at least
give a little more context so people have a hope of understanding. Or
better yet, learning from your experiences!
Cheers,
John
