SRDF bandwidth utilization

You are welcome ..

I have no further details .. I've simply experienced this behaviour in the last few hour .. my customer removed 4 DWDM link, breaking half of our SRDF links .. SRDF handled the issue using only available links .. ..

Now the customer replaced the DWDM link and all RF adapters are spreading the workload between all paths

SRDF have a "PowerPath" inside, spreading the workload and balancing it on every available link .. and resuming paths when links comes back

SRDF will always use any available link to push data to remote side.

Ah, sorry. Two RAs are plenty for 80M Bytes/sec.

4 processors configured as RF. Each RF processor have a single port.

Thanks Stefan!What kind of mechanism does it use?Do i need to configure anything on the symm.

If you need 800MB/sec, you will need more than two RAs. I would suggest 4.

It is not MegaBytes..it 80MB or 800Mbits..

You mean say 4 adapters or divided between 4 ports?

Absolutely ! I've seen 2 RA's of 2Gb each pushing data over 1.2Gbps (1 x 800Mb and 1 x 400Mb using Cisco 9216i's and FCIP) at 400 MegaBytes per second ("some" compression was involved), so if you have a true SAN between the 2 Arrays (not FCIP or something) you theoretically should be able to do 2 x 2Gb on 2Gb ports and 2 x 4Gb on the latests models, so 800MBps. Only 80 is "nothing"....
