Subject: Jumbo Frames

Hi all,

We are looking to implement jumbo frames on our filers in order to help the throughput of ISCSI. We have a number of Windows boxes using the MS  software ISCSI initiator, and we also have a number of VMware ESX 3.5 servers also using the VMware ISCSI initiator.

And hence have a few questions about jumbo frames:

Will this help with ISCSI performance ?

What about CIFS clients, will we need to change on those machines ?

Does anybody else have any words of wisdom that would help ?

Any yes I know should be using NFS but I don’t have a license for it yet L

Thanks

Matt
