ONTAP Recipes: Prioritize business critical applications using QoS Min

Did you know you can…

Prioritize business critical applications using QoS Min?

QoS allows you to isolate business-critical applications to ensure they meet required performance. To set up QoS Min in your system:

1. Log in to OnCommand System Manager.
2. Select the Business-Critical Volume followed by Actions, Storage QoS.
3. Set the Minimum Throughput to 40,000IOPS .

4. From the performance dashboard observe that the service level guarantee of 40,000 IOPS is met and latency is reduced.

     Note that the test and dev workloads may see impacts meaning fewer IOPS and higher latencies.
