Hi,
I am playing around with iSCSI for ESXi the first time and found some recommended settings for the ESXi side, basically enlarging the amount of data that can be sent / received.
Unfortunately setting this on ESXi (only) had a detrimental effect, so I look around a bit and found an older post here:
www.ixsystems.com
This hinted at setting the 3 values above identical on ESXi and FreeNas for best performance - so now I wonder where I can configure those on FreeNas?
Thanks,
cheers
Edit: Its also mentioned in older manuals (eg https://www.ixsystems.com/documentation/freenas/8.0.3/freenas.html), but not in newer ones...
