Testing A700 throughput

Mohamed-Roushdy — Mon, 17 Jun 2019 08:00:23 GMT

Hello,

We have a brand new A700, and it's not in production yet. I'm trying to get test the throughput using "IOmeter" tool, the performance is poor than other arrays we have (FAS8080, and AFF8080), so, is there a specific tool from NETAPP tahat we could use to get an accurate result?

You did not provide any details of the config or how you are using IOmeter.

How is your aggr designed? NAS or SAN? If NAS, using FlexGroups? If not, why not?

ONTAP version? Network setup? Jumbo frames?

Any possible network errors?

Give us something to work with.

hello：

I used fusion to test the throughput. I started to design the system according to the storage model, storage configuration and number of hard disks, then clicked Workload, and finally clicked re-verification system to display throughput and IOPS. The following link is the website of fusion, I hope it can help you.
