Yet, I still experienced better performance with jumbo frames disabled altogether. We left it off for now because I'm wondering if part of the problem is our ancient ...

The most obvious impact is when migrating storage of a virtual machine. With Jumbo Frames enabled, we find that moving a particular VM takes about an hour. Wit...

Any help would be greatly appreciated here as we're currently just running some tests: I think we've got SMI-S pretty well sorted out -- I've been able to set up the agent, add it to SCVMM, create a...
