Avis et retour sur utilisation de stockage NetAPP

jsajous26

Bonjour,

Nous envisageons et testons une infrastructure comprenant :

deux serveurs Hyperviseurs, avec des cartes supportant le 25Gbps en SFP+ DAC pour le stockage en iSCSI, branché en Direct-Attachement. 2 ports par hyperviseur.
une baie NetAPP AFF-A30

Après plusieurs tests, nous atteignons le débit d'environ ~2/3Gbps par VHD :

Est-ce une limitation côté hyperviseur (Xen) ?

Comment voyez-vous l'architecture avec une ou plusieurs baies NetAPP ?

Merci de votre réponse,
Cordialement.
