EVA8100 Performance Pro
EVA with a problem physical disk layout:
14 Enclosures same configuration:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
FATA FATA FCFCFCFCFCFCFCFCFCFCFC FATA
Would physical location of disk impact perfoamnce of disk Group? All FATA disks are in one Virtual Group.
SAN was checked for configuration issues and nothing was found. Any ideas?

Re: EVA8100 Performance Pro
The FATA disks are 1 TB? Can you check their temperature?
Also, you need to check how many I/Os the FATA disk group is receiving, here's a document stating how many I/Os per disk you can expect:

Re: EVA8100 Performance Pro
As for the performance of the VMware environment you have to remember that VMware does a terrible job load balancing. First thing that I would look at would be the host port counter to see if the load is balanced across all ports:
evaperf hps -cont
That could be a bottleneck right there if you are pushing too much IOPS or MBs over one single link.
If that is the bottle neck then look at how many hosts there are on the datastores. There should be a max of 15 VMs per datastore.
One last note would be to not use the FATA drives for any type of high IO. FATA is meant as low cost low utilization solution (archive data...).
