Limiting transmission bandwidth
You can set a fixed bandwidth limit or a bandwidth schedule.
1. With a fixed bandwidth limit, data will be transmitted at all times according to the
user-specified bandwidth configuration. If you want to set a fixed bandwidth limit,
use the limit bandwidth command.
Command
LIMIT BANDWIDTH
Description
Sets a fixed bandwidth limitation for transmitting data from the
source to the target
Syntax
LIMIT BANDWIDTH <bytes>, <seconds> TO <target>
Options
l bytes—Number of bytes to be transmitted
l seconds—Maximum number of seconds to wait before
transmitting again
l target—Name of the target, an IP address on the target, or a
virtual IP address. Depending on the network route Storage
Mirroring Recover uses to access the target, you may need to
specify the fully qualified domain name.
Examples
limit bandwidth 19300, 5 to beta
Notes
l This command transmits in bursts, not bytes per seconds. The
time identifies how long to wait before transmitting again. For
example, if 5 seconds are specified and it only takes 2 seconds to
send the specified bytes, Storage Mirroring Recover will wait an
additional 3 seconds before transmitting again.
l Target names that contain non-alphanumeric characters must be
enclosed in quotation marks.
