<p>Hello,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I'm trying to understand something let me explain.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Oracle always told to me that if you create a etherstub switch it
has infiniband speed 40GB/s.</p>
<p>But I have a customer running on Solaris (Yeah I know but let me
explain) who is copy from 1 NGZ to another NGZ on the same GZ over
Lan (I know told him to to use etherstub).</p>
<p>The copy witch is performed for a Oracle database with sql
command, the DBA witch have 5 streams say it's waiting on the
disk, the disk are 50 - 60 % busy the speed is 30 mb/s.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>So I did some test just to see and understand if it's the
database or the system, but with doing my tests I get very
confused ???<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>On another Solaris at my work copy over etherstub switch =>
copy speed is 185MB/s expected much more of infiniband speed ???<br>

</p>
<p>=> copy is 116.4 MB/s => expected much more from infiniband
speed is just the same as Lan ???</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Is not that my disk can not follow 17% busy there sleeping ...<br>

</p>
<p>On the other NGZ I receive <font color="#ff0000">250MB/s </font>????</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>- So my question is how comes that the speed is equal to Lan
100MB/s on OmniOSce but i receive 250MB/s ?</p>
<p>- Why is etherstub so slow if infiniband speed is 40GB/s ???</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I'm very confused right now ...</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>And want to know for sure how to understand and see this in the
right way, because this customer will be the first customer from
my who gonna switch complety over to OmniOSce on production and
because this customer is one or the biggest company's in Belgium I
really don't want to mess up !!!<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>So any help and clarification will be highly appreciate !!!<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thank you very much.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Kind Regards,</p>
