SAN QoS for vHBAs
Oracle’s vHBAs support QoS where the bandwidth is rate limited with shaping (not
dropped). There are no queues or policers associated with FC traffic—only shapers.
This chapter presents the SAN QoS features and how to configure them in the
following sections:
■ “SAN QoS Features” on page 209
■ “Commands” on page 210
Note – See “Virtual Host Bus Adapters (vHBAs)” on page 133 for information about
non QoS vHBA features.
SAN QoS profiles, like most objects in the Oracle Fabric Interconnect, have “Naming
Conventions” on page 8.
