To troubleshoot ingest and retrieval performance issues, you can perform a simple test that uses a workstation in the place of the actual client application and analyze the store/retrieve performance during the test compared to the performance normally seen with the client application.
The audit logs can be a valuable source of information to quantify the time a grid takes to execute an operation. For example, to determine the time a grid takes to process an S3 retrieval operation, see the audit message SGET > TIME attribute value. The corresponding audit log TIME attribute can be found for the following operations:
- S3 GET, DELETE, HEAD, metadata update
- Swift DELETE, GET, HEAD, PUT
- Archive retrieve or store to cloud tier
For more information, see theAudit Message Reference.
