Drivers Intel P3700 for VSANS?

I worked with our VMWare team to design a VSAN out and it included some Intel P3700 PCIe cards like the layer flash supported by about 1.2 TB of Seagate sas disks 10 k for storage.  Unfortunately, even of the P3700 disappeared not on the HCL, and I am currently "chasing my tail" with latency, and i/o pending.  I opened a SR, but recommended for the H730 drivers do not seem to do anything.  And I'm fairly certain that's not the issue (deactivation does not seem to be a problem).  I understand that the P3700 didn't HCL yet, but it is still ongoing and so many white papers were written with this card as part of the architecture.

It's all running VMWare 6. 0 b (VMware ESXi 6.0.0 build 2494585 on hosts)

Material:

-From r630 Dell (30)

-2 x Intel P3700 400 GB Flash cards (driver intel-nvme - 1.0e.1.1 - 1OEM.550.0.0.1391871.x86_64.vib)

-10 x 1.2 TB SAS of Seagate 10 k disks

-H730 Dell RAID controller in HBA mode with cache is disabled, etc. (drivers for this were something to worry about, but since I assume that the first writings go directly to PCIe cards, I don't think that's the question long - firmware 25.3.0.0016 pilot 6.606.12.00)

-Intel X 710 with DAC 2 x 10 Gb connections

-4 x Juniper QFX5100 10 GB switches (15 r630 by 2 switches, scaling up to 30 servers in 2 past later)


SAN traffic exceeds 2 uplink (with uplink 1 standby), everything else is plus 1 uplink (with uplink 2 as before)-working on a plan to spend LACP, but it is still under construction


The current workload is very low.  It is only about 6 Production VM running on that cluster to the repositories of the project and kicking the tires, with the idea that 500-1000 VM will be launched upward in the coming months.  For the majority of virtual machines, the performance is not essential, but some of the problems I see currently are a bit a showstopper.


Problems:

If I run "bonnie ++ u root" on a virtual machine single, I can see the latency time to go up to 65, 000ms (Yes, really 65 k ms) and the virtual machine is basically responding (100% iowait and very rarely is able to write i/o because of the huge latency).  The write buffer is never very full during this period (stuck at 30% and deactivation does not start even during the race.)  Similar issues occur ATTO Disk Benchmark running on a windows system with a disk queue high (4 seems to be well, 10 kills of the VM)


I can get very high write speeds (500 - 800 MB/s or more), but as soon as the latency time leapt to a few 100 ms, it's all downhill.


Even with a fairly simple recording VM with all our guests directed to these, I get occasional spikes of latency (1400ms +, with an average of 15ms, which seems high even).  This box just works a lot of entries to logstash and a hint of elasticsearch with occasional when bed kibana someone shows something.

Y at - it no rider special I read somewhere for the P3700 Intel?  Another thing that I really should look into?  I'm tired of chasing my tail and want to start the actual load of the migration to this new cluster.  I tried RAID0 on a small cluster of 4 boxes, but that wasn't much better and is much more boring.

I use the 1.6 and 2.0 TB P3700 cards in my VSAN without problem. I have a similar setup, except using r730xd, the same with the same firmware + drivers raid card, also on 6. 0b. When I originally put in place, I could see peaks of latency high 200-400 + ms, it was resolved by updating the drivers of NETWORK card for me. I use a NIC (Intel X 540 - AT2), different, but the firmware upgrade + the driver for my NIC brings my latency ~ 3ms avg and blip occasional peak at ~ 15ms. Probably worth to update any firmware on your X 710 and use the appropriate driver on VMWare HCL VMware Compatibility Guide: search for i/o device

I've also seen really bad latency problems out of network configuration problem. In our case that we had a link to 1 GB failover in case our 10 GB failed, but instead things are started to be load-balanced and performance/latency was very poor until we noticed that the 1 GB has been fully utilized.

Also try to use the Inbox NVME driver, I ran on it without problem before Intel released the driver 1.1 you use now. In my limited testing, Intel drivers are slightly faster performance but nothing majorly different.

    I found a driver for this card graph on the Toshiba site, but the drivers were too old (September 2008).

    Why not the Toshiba L series are updated?

    Hello

    The graphics card drivers on the Toshiba driver page are the latest Toshiba drivers that are available for this graphics card.
    Don t mix drivers Intel of origin with the drivers from Toshiba!
    There is a difference!

    Intel driver don t support the overheating protection, but make the Toshiba drivers!

    Of course, you can install Intel drivers using another method. You can install the drivers from Device Manager and could point to the place where the Intel driver was stored on the HARD drive.

    But note; This Intel driver is not certified by Toshiba and you can ONLY use it at your OWN risk.

    Run these two tests to check your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.  Launch auditor.  You don't need to run memtest again unless the auditor is not the cause, or you want to.

  • help with drivers intel wifi 4965AGN causing BSOD on Windows 8 because Intel released an update & also KMODE_NOT_HANDLED BSOD

    Hello.

    Someone at - it solutions to this problem? It keeps causing an irql_not_less_or_equal BSOD associated with the file netwlv64.sys.

    I've upgraded from Vista to Windows 8 and Intel drivers are version 13.4.0.139. I contacted Intel and they tell me that they release an update for Windows 8.

    I don't want downgrade to Vista but will if there is no solution.

    I have also experienced the BSOD KMODE_NOT_HANDLED which, from what I've read is due to pilots not working is not on properly on devices. I have disabled these features because they have too no update for Windows 8, and they are only for a memory card reader that I cannot live without, but is it normal for a fix of the problem KMODE BSOD?

    Thanks for any help.

In the diagnosis of toshiba, I have the Intel 82579V Gigabit Network Connection, c. 12.6.54.0 for wifi that I sometimes have to restart the computer, or choose "restore settings".

In the toshiba Web site, there are a lot of 32-bit drivers, but all 64-bit drivers. In my PC, in the folder c:/Toshiba, there is the 32-bit drivers and 64-bit drivers, but not all.

    So where I can find all the drivers 64-bit for my Satellite P300-1BB, and where I can find software of Toshiba (like toshiba assist, ect...) for Vista 64 bit?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Satellite P300 seems to be a new series for the moment so I think this might be the reason why you can't find the drivers 64-bit on Toshiba page

    But you worry about don t dude I m sure that Toshiba will be out the 64-bit driver next time I remember although 64-bit for the other series drivers were later also released.

    Just for the note;
    Some series have been equiupped with the same hardware devices. THEN maybe you could check some different unique series laptop drivers
