Link aggregated between NAS and a switch: the Mac as a very slow access...

Hello,
in my Office we're working with Macs and PCs and all the data is on a NAS.
Here is our configuration:
NAS <-link1->Switch<-Link2->Macs or PC.
Macs are connected with AFP protocol (because SMB is very slow).
We want to use Link Aggregation between the NAS and the switch (with 802.3ad procotol) but when we do that all the Macs have a very slow access to the NAS. But all is OK with the PCs.
What can we do? Is there a problem with macOS X and link aggregation?
Thank you for your help.
Nicolas

Sorry, not sure what the question is exactly.
You must have an Xserve, or Ethernet cards capable of Jumbo Frames for one, I assume the Switch & NAS are capable?
Possible clues...

  • The mac pro run very slow

    Mac pro run very slow

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    Otherwise, take the steps below when you notice the slowdown.
    Step 1
    Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
    Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
    Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
    Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
    Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
    Next, select the Disk Activity tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
    Step 2
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

  • Yesterday CC updated and after that the application is so very slow that I have to cancel the app via Task management. What can it be?

    Hello,
    Yesterday I've updated CC via the Update manager. After that the program does not perform anymore. The only option left is to end the task via the Windows Task manager. At a certain moment it stops and stays quit.

    Sorry this is a user to user technical forum.  There is NO APPLE here as stated in the term of use when you signed up for this forum.

  • To switch the mac off i have to remove the battery...

    My macbook is a 2007 model.
    I unfortunately dropped sweet water on it. Of course i saw it hours later and it didn't work...
    So i opened the machine, cleaned everything with clean water, then dried it with a hairdryer.
    Once everything was dry, for sure, i reassembled the mac, but i have some problems now.
    On the motherboard i pushed a black button, and it's impossible to unpush... i guess it's a kind of overcloaking ? Why can't it get unpushed ? So now the computer starts, but the keyboard doesn't work, and to switch the mac off i have to remove the battery...
    Is it because of this button ? (couldn't get anything about it on the net...). Is it "just" because of the water ?
    Thanx in advance

    i also have a safari issue outstanding for a couple of weeks and am now wondering if this is part of the issue?

  • Does anyone know what triggers the switch between text and iMessage in the middle of a conversation? Are there any differences in billing between text and iMessage?

    In the middle of a text conversation between another iOS 5.0 iPhone user and myself, the conversation elements switched back and forth several times between Text and iMessage. The phone actually tracked it and put little lines indicating the switch, and my comments changed from green to blue and back again. I can't think of anything I changed in the middle of the conversation. I was outside WiFi range, using the Cell network at the time. Now I tried it again, while i'm on WiFI and the messages are Text (green) again.

    1. Windows 8.1 Enterprise w Update is the best. It allows you for sideloading in corporate environment without additional tools and licenses.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/jj874388.aspx
    2. N series is for EU (without IE).
    3. Profesional is fine, but you will need some tools to achieve the same functionality that you have in "pack" Enterprise.
    4. VL is volume license, a type of license for multiple computers (to say it simply)
    5. MSDN forum is better alternative for problems like this.
    6. Attached to MSDN are licenses or at least references to web resources. Read license agreements carefully and let your installation and use follow the license.

  • Search (priority) of linked contacts between iCloud and facebook

    Hi,
    on my iOS I have linked contacts between iCloud and facebook. There have to be a priority, at least for searching for details in the contact, because i only find some of the contacts that a have a same note set by me in the iCloud card. When I link contacts with different names, the unified contact get the facebook name. Then I can't search for the details I have set for the iCloud card. If I choose "Use This Name For Unitief Card" of the iCloud card, I can search for it's details from that moment on.
    Can I set this generel priority to iCloud?!

    does nobody has the same problem/can reconstruct the behaviour?

  • Link Table between CRM and ERP

    Hi Experts,
    Does anyone knows the link table between CRM and ERP for Contact Person (Buss Part) CRM and Contact Person ERP.
    In my customer system, contacts are automatically duplicated in CRM.
    When you make a change in ERP, this change is automatically done in CRM.
    So I suppose that there is a table between the both systems to find the corresponding number...
    Thank you for your help and hope my English is good enough to understand :o)
    Best regards,
    Luis.

    Hi Micky,
    Thanks for your answer.
    Unfortunatelly, number are differents...
    I move this question to CRM forum ;o)

  • Difference between -1 and null in the targettype filed

    Hi
    Could anyone advise what is the difference between -1 and null in the targettype filed in marketing documents?
    For example, in Sales Quotation - Rows (QUT1) table, I found for some open sales quotations, the field is null however the DB help file suggest the default value is -1 so I suppose it should be -1 for open documents.
    Many thanks for your advisory.

    Hi, Qian!
    I investigated that "-1" value appears in targettype field in Sales Quotation Rows (QUT1 table) when you Dublicate a Sales Quotation document (Ctrl + D). And NULL value appears when you create a new document without dublicating.
    In case you want to equal these 2 "empty"-values using T-SQL, you can use ISNULL(targettype, -1) function - this will give you -1 for both the "empty"-values
    HTH!

  • I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

    I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

    It is now confirmed  that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken.  If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
    Personally, if I didn't already have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.
    This might be of some interest to you at this time: Life After MobileMe.

    The x86 architecture has a standard formatting for disks that uses up to four primary partitions on a disk. On DOS or UNIX, you can view the partitions with 'fdisk'.
    This is layer that Windows and Linux tends to use for filesystems.
    Solaris though uses only one of those partitions for its own use (marking it a Solaris partition) and places a label similar to that on a SPARC disk (VTOC). So within the single x86 partition are several further subdivisions (slices).
    On solaris, the disk might be /dev/dsk/c0t0d0. You could access one of the Solaris (VTOC) slices as /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0. As far as I know, Linux does not understand how to address the Solaris VTOC slices (If this isn't true, I'd love to know what the syntax for doing so is).
    You'd access the (non-Solaris) x86 parititions like /dev/dsk/c0t0d0p1 or so. While Linux can address extended x86 partitions, Solaris can only address primary partitions.

  • I have a licence for Master collection 6 windows and I switched to mac. Can I switch the serial some

    I have a licence for Master collection 6 windows and I switched to mac. Can I switch the serial somehow so I would be able to use it in my mac?

    AppleWorks is not legally available for download. You would need to buy a copy. HardcoreMac.com still lists AppleWorks 6 on their website. You could also try eBay but you would need to make sure it is AppleWorks 6.2 or newer to install on OS X.

    AirPort Express wireless connection, when I surf the news sites so I linked to **** pages. And must close the window. If I use my iPhone with Internet sharing the same computer, then I have no problem.
    I believe that it is in AirPort Express, and would have to clean it. How do you do that?

    You need to use the Express in router mode.. I think you are trying to use it in bridge mode.. but you need to give us a lot more details.. screenshots might help more than anything.

    Good day! How it could be?  In map of Moscow (Russia): street TVERSKAYA named as GORKOGO?
    P.S. Info from Wikipedia: Tverskaya Street (Russian: Тверская улица), known as Gorky Street (Russian: улица Горького) between 1935 and 1990, is the main and probably best-known radial street in Moscow, Russia. The street runs Northwest from the central Manege Square in the direction of Saint Petersburg and terminates at the Garden Ring, giving the name to Tverskoy District. The route continues further as First Tverskaya-Yamskaya Street, Leningradsky Prospekt and Leningradskoye Shosse.
