MPXIO In Action

My Environment

Brocade switch:
Port 4, 5 connected to HBA and port 10, 11 connected to storage.

How i simulate?
1. Initiate a file copy process.
2. Simulate link breakdown by disable (portdisable) port 4 while file is still copying.
3. Simulate link recovery by enable back (portenable) port 4 while file is still copying.

From the video, you can see the drop of throughput on port 4 when i disable port 4 and the throughput on port 4 climbs up again when i enable back port 4.
