Limit the max transfer rate of a replication relationship
Limit the max transfer rate of a replication relationship. An unlimited transfer rate might negatively impact the performance of other applications and your network.
Limiting the max transfer rate is optional but recommended. Without a limit, network and application performance may decline.
Alternatively, we recommend an unlimited transfer rate for FSx for ONTAP file systems for critical workloads, for example, those that are used primarily for disaster recovery.
Consider how much bandwidth to allocate for replication.
