Set SAS Host QoS

Overview

Configure the bandwidth limit (the maximum performance limit) of the SAS host.

Caution
  • This function is supported in the ETERNUS DX100 S5/DX200 S5.

  • This function can be used, irrespective of whether the QoS mode has been enabled or disabled. If the QoS mode has been disabled, the port starts the operation within the configured bandwidth limit after the QoS mode is enabled.

Note
  • Configure the port bandwidth limit on each port. Refer to the [Set FC Port QoS] function, the [Set iSCSI Port QoS] function, or the [Set SAS Port QoS] function for details.

  • The host LUN bandwidth limit can be configured in the LU QoS group. Refer to the [Set Host-LU QoS] function for details.
