Chapter 11 SAN QoS for vHBAs 211
▼ Create vHBA With Shaping
Take the following steps to create a SAN QoS shaping policy and apply it to a vHBA:
1. Create a named QoS shaping policy. The policy name is “test” in this example:
2. Configure the shaping-policy values. SAN QoS only limits bandwidth (no
drops):
3. Bind the policy to a vHBA.
Whichever maximum bandwidth you defined will be applied to this vHBA. The
vHBA’s traffic will never exceed the defined policy values:
4. Verify the QoS shaping service is bound to the vHBA:
add qos san test
set qos san test ?
