Hello,
I have a customer that ingests millions of small files into a netapp volume and then copies the data to another directory in the same volume. Sometimes my customer experiences latency when copying the files. I don’t see volume or controller latency. I would think the files are already in cache / WAFL when the files are initially ingest therefore the write to another directory would be fast? Is there a way to remedy this? would NFS trunking be a solution?
The environment
FAS 8300 controllers running Ontap 9.15p7
Linux servers running RHEL 9
NFS v4.2
Thanks
