Dear All,
After having setup multiple ISIS 5000/5500 systems there is a pattern that is becoming more and more visible but before I bother support and/or Bob Russo I would like to hear if others see the same thing.
As time and development are progressing it seems that MC is becoming slower with each version when opening/closing/saving bins when using an ISIS 5000/5500 which is connected through ethernet (4x 1G) to a switch or when using direct connect between the clients and ISIS. When using the 10G connection to a switch the performance is better.
Every time I find a customer complaining about this I find that:
1. Pathdiag gives perfectly fine results.
2. Projects are not ridiculously big.
3. That renaming the attic folder on the ISIS to old_attic gives a performance boost but only for a few days/weeks.
At one customer renaming the attic also solved daily lockups of MC where it could take minutes to just close a single bin.
It seems there is something wrong with the MC projects/bins and attic in combination with ISIS 5000/5500. It feels as if it is cache related and I have checked if the cache of the Force 10 S25n are set correctly but since also direct attached clients experience the same problem, that seems not to be cause.
There are already other posts reporting similar problems but a solution I never found. Are others out there seeing the same thing?
