Hi All,

How do we collect NFS performance stats on ESX 3.5/4.0 server? There is no NFSstat or IOstat commands available. Also ESXTOP does not provide enough NFS level information. Let me know if there are any better tools to pull ESX NFS performance stats.

Regards

Sathish

To my knowledge, vCenter does not provide NFS performance statistics. I'd say you have to rely on your storage vendor to supply the tools for collecting performance stats.

Message was edited by: dnetz - meant to say vCenter instead of ESX, sorry.
