ESXTop

[chrischay]

Hi,

I have ESXi 5.1 and I tried to troubleshoot storage performance issue using esxtop. I went to disk view by pressing d and I notice that there is no more ABRTS/s and Resets/s field. Are they deprecated in ESXi 5.1? What is the replacement?

thanks

Well, yeah, I guess, the options which you mentioned are part of 3.1 and till 3.5. From 4.1, I believe the options are not available. However, you can get the aborts/resets for a particular hba by the vsish node:

vsish -e get /storage/scsifw/adapters/vmhba1/stats

..

..

  Task Mgmt:TaskMgmt statistics {

      abort:1

      virtual lun reset:36

      abort task:0

      lun reset:0

      device reset:0

      bus reset:0

   }

..

..

You can write a small shell script to display the above parameter every 5 secs or so
