Configure service bandwidth


Allocate a percentage of a function card's resources to one or more operator-defined vSwitches. Allocating different amounts of the function card resources allows you to balance the needs of heavily-used vSwitches with those that have lower processing needs.

The value you specify is the minimum percentage of the function card resources that the system provides to the vSwitch. The vSwitch will always be able to access this amount of the function card resources. If the vSwitch needs additional resources and the function card has unallocated resources available, the vSwitch will be able to access these resources.

Field Name Description
card enumeration Function card 1 or 2.

Valid values:
  • functionCard1 : Function card 1.
  • functionCard2 : Function card 2.
guaranteedMinPercent integer Optional: Configures the percentage of a function card's resources that you want to assign to the vSwitch.

Valid values are from 1 to 100; the default setting is "1".
absoluteMaxPercent integer Optional: If absoluteMaxPercent is greater than guaranteedMinPercent, this vSwitch is permitted to allocate resources (if available) from a 'shared' pool when demand is greater than what can be supported by guaranteedMinPercent resources.

Valid values are from 1 to 100; the default setting is "100".
