Network and Storage Protocols
Hi,
we have a FAS2220 with 2 controllers, both have the same setup, same network settings, same cifs settings, plugged in the same switch, switch ports the same settings, connected to the same preferred DC, in general all settings the same but CIFS has a big difference.
Read/Write on a CIFS share from first controller goes 100MBps+, while on the other barely reaches 20-30 and goes up and down.
Strange thing is that there is no performance hit on the second controller for read/write on a VM shared disk over iSCSI.
Here are cifs stat for First controller (good one)

On the second controller I'm specifically doing the test on a newly created volume without dedup. Tried already to disable vscan but changes nothing, besides the first controller performs great with dedup and vscan enabled, as I said all settings the same.
Doing a quick packet sniff on the client I see that after a couple of seconds in a file transfer sessions there are only read requests from the client and no responses from the filer and then it responds again and then the same all over again.
Any help appreciated.
how much disks do the aggregates have? is one bigger than the other?

then I don't have an idea why this happens
I recommend to fetch perfstats, open a case at Netapp and let them analyse the stats.
Mundane question - are the options for TCP Window Size set to the same values on both controllers?
filer>options cifs.tcp_window_size
Believe the recommendation is to ensure it's set to at least 64,240 (and I think as of ONTAP 8.2.1 the default is set to that).
It can go as high as 8,388,608, however.
Just something to check.
I have already tried to changed the tcp window size but nothing changed. The issue occurs regardless of this setting.
Probably will raise a support ticket.
