Configuring CS_CTL QoS on the Storage Device
See your device’s user guide for QoS configuration instructions.
Changing the QoS Priority Levels
The QoS priority levels are set in the 2700 Series Adapters vPorts. The Windows
and VMware adapter drivers assign default vPort priority levels. The following
sections describe how to change the default vPort priority levels in Windows and
VMware ESXi systems.
Changing the Priority Levels in Windows
To change the vPort priority levels in Windows, you must first assign the vPorts,
and then change the priority levels. Both procedures can be accomplished using
either QConvergeConsole GUI or interactive QConvergeConsole CLI, as
described in the following sections.
For more detailed information, see the
QConvergeConsole Help
and the
User’s
Guide—QConvergeConsole CLI
(part number SN0054667-00).
