Hi,
I have couple general disk monitoring questions. Basically we use iSCSI volumes which I would like to monitor for performance issues.
Our storage has one array with multiply LUNs so in this case I guess the best way to monitor iSCSI volumes is to use Logical Disk counters?
Could you provide me could of counters what could help identify iSCSI volume problems?
I was thinking about:
"\Logical Disk(*)\Avg. sec/Read” < 15 ms
“\Logical Disk(*)\Avg. sec/Write" < 15 ms
I like these counters as you compare to exact value in this case 15 an configure the triggers. Any other examples?
Also was thinking about I/O counters:
Disk Writes/SecDisk Reads/Sec
But these counters depends on amount of data being write and read (Avg. Disk Bytes/Read, Avg. Disk Bytes/Write). As for 8kb per read and for 256kb per read I/O will different.
So is there any way to configure counters for troubleshooting iSCSI volumes bottlenecks? and howinterpret them?
thanks
