5–Validation Methods for DCB and FCoE
Validation Step 7—Virtualization Verification

6. Configure the test as follows:

Trigger: any PFC frame

Post fill: 90 percent after the trigger

Data size: 512K

Traffic: 100 percent read on both virtual machines
7. Use Analyzer to capture a trace.
8. Use Expert to analyze the trace, and calculate the average, minimum, and
maximum throughput results per priority.
9. Compare I/O performance for the two virtual machines.
Repeat the entire test, using separate hosts for the iSCSI initiator and the FCoE
initiator, and compare I/O performance.
Validation Results
One virtual machine ran the FCoE read application, and the other virtual machine
ran the iSCSI read application.
Figure 5-31 shows the throughput results for
individual and combined applications.

iSCSI throughput increases when
FCoE traffic decreases in the absence
of PFC pauses
