Hi

Assuming you are talking about GPFS QoS and not any fabric QoS. It would work with any supported fabric, ESS or not. It is a filesystem feature well above all the fabrics and HW. Limits IOPS per class

https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/storage-scale/5.1.8?topic=reference-mmchqos-command

I recommend (depending on number of nodes and seconds) fine-stats so then you can visualize which PID on which client node is doing what. I believe I did something of that on SSUG London 18 or 19

Dear all,

we recently found this presentation from 2021: https://www.spectrumscaleug.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/SSSD21DE-06-Improving-Spectrum-Scale-performance-using-RDMA.pdf<https://www.spectrumscaleug.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/SSSD21DE-06-Improving-Spectrum-Scale-performance-using-RDMA.pdf> On page 10 it explains by setting the RDMA device in a specific way one could employ QoS with InfiniBand, which is something we would like to achieve as well. Has anyone a working environment using QoS with InfiniBand outside of the ESS domain? If so, would you share your experience? Sorry for asking a rather broad question, but it seems that this is not well-known stuff …
