Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

We certainly intended a future release to follow on with that mass support and with support on hopefully platforms beyond AFS.

So nine dot two, you can go in and set a policy group and on your given

Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

a LUN or a volume with LUNs, you can go ahead and set a, just like it says, a minimum IOPS.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

So if you set something to be 30,000 IOPS, no matter really what's happening on the system, it's going to go ahead and ensure that that individual storage object gets the 30,000 IOPS that it's been promised.

And I'll pause for a second if you have questions here, but it's actually pretty cool how we've done it.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

And we built it into the entire stack of ONTAP.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

It's not just a glom on.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

It's actually built all the way from the disk level up to the essentially protocol layer, how we do the QoS minimums.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

Okay.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

Absolutely.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

And I'll take you as, I'll take you as far as the looking glass as I can.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

And then I will wave a white flag and, and, uh,

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

We'll see.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

Justin may even know more than me on it.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

We'll explore the depths of my knowledge, and then I'll refer you to all the different TRs and different things we have out there.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

But what I'll say about it is there are a couple of questions you had built in there.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

The first thing we do is we have this feature that's built into ONTAP now called Headroom.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

And it's a dynamically generated metric of basically how much performance capacity is available in the system.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

And we base that on something that we call basically the sort of optimal point for the system.

TechONTAPPodcast
Episode 85 โ€“ ONTAP 9.2 Overview with Jeff Baxter

It's basically the advertised performance capacity for the system.
