hp eva 4400 performance issue with CA replication and MPX110
and som times freez for seconds and cannot ping guest servers
we check event log for EVA4400 we found this message loged many times:
Excessive PING response time on the inter site link is preventing acceptable replication throughput: Reducing data exchange resources.
on vmware console we found this event:
Successfully restored access to volume 4a5dbb9e-eba9af52-c359-0022649da44b (server100) following connectivity issues.info

** we update firmware to the latest but the still same problem
more details:
Main Site EVA 4400 : version XCS 9522000
DR Site EVA 4000 : version 6.22
VMware : ESX4
we use HP distance Gateway MPX110 for replication between two site.
WAN speed 5mb distamce (60KM).
thanks in advance for any suggestion .

Re: hp eva 4400 performance issue with CA replication and MPX110
do you use synchronous oder asynchronous replication? What round-trip time do you have on the WAN link?
Best regards,
Patrick

Re: hp eva 4400 performance issue with CA replication and MPX110
Check CA implementation guide too...
http://bizsupport2.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01800459/c01800459.pdf
The most common error is bot to change the needed parameters on the SAN switches (In-onder delivery, port-based routing, increase the buffer credits on the ISL ports...)

Re: hp eva 4400 performance issue with CA replication and MPX110
* we try to use synchronous and asynchronous replication when we creating Dr group the same problem appeared on both.
* round-trip time on the WAN link =45-55 ms

Re: hp eva 4400 performance issue with CA replication and MPX110
we already applied the port-based routing before:
FCSW1:admin> switchdisable
FCSW1:admin> aptpolicy 1
FCSW1:admin> switchenable
I have many questions:
1- are you recommend to run the follwoing command line on ISL ports.
portcfglongdistance 0 LD 1 69
2-
** also I read the following on brocade: to determine the optimal amount of credits:
Credit=(Round_trip_time+Receiving _port_processing_time)/Frame Transmission _time.
In other words, the optimal number of BB credits depends on three key parameters:
1) round trip time, i.e., the distance
2) frame processing time
3) frame transmission time*
how can we calculate that for our environment and what is the best configuration for that.
3- how to to setup In-onder delivery you mention.
Thanks

Re: hp eva 4400 performance issue with CA replication and MPX110
Needs to be set on the SAN switches
IOD (In Order Delivery) "Enabled"
DLS (Dynamic Load Sharing)"Disabled"
Can be done via the GUI (http://ip) of the switch => Switch Admin => Advanced
Or through CLI:
"iodset├в en ├в dlsreset├в
Make sure you set these parameters on all switches in the fabric.
By the way... we have the exact same setup exept for the target EVA which is a 4400 but also the MPX110's and the 60km's DR :)

Re: hp eva 4400 performance issue with CA replication and MPX110
1- IOD (In Order Delivery) "Enabled"
2- DLS (Dynamic Load Sharing)"Disabled
the same performance issue appear when establish the connection

Re: hp eva 4400 performance issue with CA replication and MPX110
We've seen some realy strange behaviour of CA with low bandwidhts.
Another thing: how are the MPX's configured
Do you have any compression enabled? What's the scaling factor? Do you use a QOS on the link between the sites? Is the 5MBps guaranteed or is this max bandwidth?

Re: hp eva 4400 performance issue with CA replication and MPX110
thanks IVAn for your questions:
we try with Vdisks 90 gb and 130gb for replicate the same issue.
we try mpx110 without compression enabled and with the same problem.
we try the scaling factor disabled and with 0
about QOS it is disabled between two site because we configure the ports as ISL and
the 5MBps used also for another network and replication for oracle around 300mb data transaction>
again my question if the bandwidth not enough between two site make the source eva very busy????
