Howdy,

 

I’ve searched through all corners of the web, but still didn’t find a clear answer to this question: can Nutanix prioritize packets and/or traffic in OVS? And, if yes, is there some online how-to that I can refer to to learn how to do that?

 

Thanks in advance,

Hi everyone,

I’ve found this page that explains some concepts regarding Network QoS on Nutanix. I guess that page gave me the answers I needed.

For now, this question is Resolved.

Hi there, OVS does not have that functionality, I’m afraid.

There are some QoS options in Prism Central PC Guide: Storage Quality of Service (QoS) but not in OVS.

Oh, I get it, but I’m talking about QoS applied to Networking, not Storage. OVS alone can do some QoS on net traffic, as shown here, but I don’t know if Nutanix, that uses OVS, can do it too or if it can handle QoS through OVS itself.

 

Anyways, thanks for the answer.
