Hello,
we use FAS6070 with 2x10Gbps and Oracle DB's over NFS for
nearly 2 years now.
Our switches are Nortell 8000 series, so we use a technique
called SMLT which allows us to use both links while they are connected to
different switches.
The databases run quite well over NFS. Sadly only the
filers are using 10Gbps, the servers don't have 10Gbps. Nevertheless we see good
roundtrip times and throughput, but as always there are some people who argue
that SAN would be faster.
Sadly we have no global benchmark tests, only results while
investigating problems.
One thing we came along is when using a vif with two
PCI-X-10Gbps-NICs we see a strange performance slump for 32k frames, but only on
one interface. Right now we are searching together with netapp for the
root of this problem.
Regards
Jochen
Hi all
Reading on superior results reached in certaing environment
(NetApp NFS with Oracle ad example) I’m looking for some direct experience and
informations about performances, benchmarks, infrastructure used - I mean also
exactly model and brand of switches J - and so on. So that, more on the
relatively new world of 10 Gbps networks.
Does anyone direct experience? Are you using it in your
site?
Thanks in advance
