Can anybody clarify the use of netqueue and how it works by default? I understand it is enabled on the host by default but I see no further configuration for the drivers. I have read everything I can find but am still not clear. Here is form the Vmware Docs:
Procedure
- In the ESXi Shell on the host, use the following command:esxcli system settings kernel set --setting="netNetqueueEnabled" --value="TRUE"
- Use the esxcli module parameters set command to configure the NIC driver to use NetQueue. For example, on a dual-port Emulex NIC run this ESXCLI commands to configure the driver with 8 receive queues esxcli system module parameters set -m tg3 -p force_netq=8,8
Is there a value for teh second command by default? What if I were to re enable netqueue and not run the second command above? Does that mean it is useless?
ThankYou
