Hello thanks for choosing Dell. I am afraid the DAvg() function is out of our scope. Sorry I can't be of help this time but we can wait around to see what other users could offer.

Is there any way we can reduce the latency before starting production?

Hello Vijay,

 

Many things could cause latency such as host config, sometimes hardware failures.

While we don't do performance tuning, I would say to make sure the firmware is up to date across the board, make sure the SAN is not reporting any failures, and make sure the VMware best practice guide was followed.

Hello Charis,

           Thanks for replying,

As I am doing fresh installation and I have done by best practices based on VMware. but still I am getting latency on it. Also, we have updated the latest firmware of HDD and san.

IF have any key points to reduce the latency than let me know so I can verify also.

Hello,

that belong to performance tuning support that we don't offer sorry. Did you check the practice documentation provided?

Thanks

I have posted here to get some ideas to resolve the latency only as Dell is saying that this is a faster permanence device than ME4 So I would like to get some idea how could be and how to reduce the latency only.

I have set up ME5 from best practice documentation and got the latency.  So if anyone has any idea to reduce the latency please do support.
