Do you have any different options flexscale settings?

 

Specifically looking to see if maybe one has flexscale.lopri_blocks on.

 

I would have though specifically, Network Sahres, Exchange and vmware would have good cache hit ratios.  Or maybe you have 1 or a small handful of guests doing the majority of your i/o.

Subject: Flash Cache counters

 

We have two systems and their flexscale output is given below. System with the low hit percentage is a very busy system with Network shares, Exchange 2010 and VMware on it. I am seeing very low hit percentage for flexcache and want to know if this should be a concern.

 

 

 

System with high usage but very low hit percentage
