LSI MegaRAID SAS 9260-4i with ESXi - low disk performace

$

Hello,

 

I'm using a free ESXi version and I have problem with a low disk performance. Disk performance varies widely - transfer 10MB - 181MB/s I have a LSI MegaRAID SAS 9260-4i without BBU. In my opinion, the problem is in the configuration of raid. How I resolve my problem?

 

After logging to vSphere I go to the Configuration tab and click Health Status.

What's mean: "UNOCNOFIGURED GOOD"?


I running vm with ubuntu live, mount esxi partition and do a 'dd' tests:

root@ubuntu:/mnt# dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync

16384+0 records in
16384+0 records out
1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 11.4505 s, 93.8 MB/s

Also i did the hdparm test:

root@ubuntu:/mnt# hdparm -Tt /dev/sda

 

/dev/sda:

Timing cached reads:   21080 MB in  2.00 seconds = 10549.20 MB/sec

Timing buffered disk reads: 530 MB in  3.00 seconds = 176.51 MB/sec

root@ubuntu:/mnt# hdparm -Tt /dev/sda

 

/dev/sda:

Timing cached reads:   20586 MB in  2.00 seconds = 10301.77 MB/sec

Timing buffered disk reads: 532 MB in  3.01 seconds = 176.51 MB/sec

 

Command: MegaCli -AdpAllInfo -aAll

Command: MegaCli -PDList -aAll

Command: MegaCli -CfgDsply -aAll

 

I have a ditional question: How I can get a smart for diferent disk?

 

Sorry for my english,

Regards,

Łukasz
