The ILIO Layer

This layer provides the administrators with a detailed insight on the performance of the Atlantis ILIO by reporting the following:

• The comparative measures of the disk utilization with/without the Atlantis ILIO server, the total capacity saved in the target environment with the use of Atlantis ILIO server etc,
• The I/O activity on the backend storage and the time taken by the Atlantis ILIO server to respond to requests;
• The disk space utilized by the NFS datastore;
• The read/write offloads by the Atlantis ILIO;
• The I/O activity on the NFS datastore;
• The NFS thread utilization of the Atlantis ILIO;etc.
