[Orca-users] Cumulative Transfer Rates

Still doing the same thing after a restart.

It seems to me like it's measuring something other than "Disk System Wide
Transfer Rate".

These are the only systems connected to the Storedge 6320 via HBAs using
VXFS, that shouldn't be a factor?

Thanks,

Derek

Even more unusual it seems to be on a 17 hour cycle...

and the slope is so steady that it can't be based on disk usage, no disk
could be used that steady.

I'm going to delete the systems and restart and see if it happens again.

These were the first two I setup and changed versions of orcallator since
then.

If that doesn't make a difference I keep poking away at it.

This sounds like a bug.  What happens from 12:00 am to 2:00 am on
the system?  Backups?  Some other automated processing?

Best,
Blair
