VMWare log: Device performance has deteriorated. I/O latency increased

I am seeing a lot of these "Device ... performance has deteriorated. I/O latency increased..."  warnings in my ESXI 5.5 Host logs. My investigations have uncovered the suggestion that I zero out the Tcp Delayed Ack setting.

I am supposed to check this by opening up an SSH session on the VM host &  running

#vmkiscsid --dump-db | grep Delayed

But apparently grep is not finding any lines with Delayed. The unfiltered dump looks like this:

# vmkiscsid --dump-db
Dumping Configuration DB to (null)
iSCSI MASTER Database opened. (0xffad8008)
=========[ISID]=========
=========[InitiatorNodes]=========
=========[Targets]=========
=========[discovery]=========
=========[ifaces]=========
=========[internal]=========
Record 1:
`rowid`='1'
`key`='discovery.ltime'
`value`='1'
=========[nodes]=========
=========[route]=========
=========[route_vs_iface]=========
Dump Complete

So either there is no Delayed Ack setting or I am doing it wrong. 

Any suggestions?

Hi,

What type of storage device are you connecting to? Has anything changed with the configuration? It is possible that delayed ack was not configured. Have you rebooted the host? 

No Events found!
