Abstract
Is my storage system too slow for my application, or is the application not utilizing it properly? It may seem the answer is obvious: look at %util in iostat, right? But this is usually not the correct approach. To get it right, it is important to understand how I/O requests are handled, starting at the application and going down to the storage device. In this session, I will discuss the disk I/O path. This knowledge is essential for troubleshooting and optimize.
