I have a Catalyst Switch that is been used as a SAN switch providing ISCSI connection for servers.
The total output drops of the interfaces connected to the SAN and some connected to the servers keep increasing.
Example below:
SWESAN1-1#sh interfaces gigabitEthernet 0/1
Hardware is Gigabit Ethernet, address is ec44.763c.8f01 (bia ec44.763c.8f01)
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec,
reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 5/255
Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set
Keepalive set (10 sec)
Full-duplex, 1000Mb/s, media type is 10/100/1000BaseTX
input flow-control is off, output flow-control is unsupported
ARP type: ARPA, ARP Timeout 04:00:00
Last input never, output 00:00:08, output hang never
Last clearing of "show interface" counters 03:25:04
Input queue: 0/75/0/0 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 78
Queueing strategy: fifo
Output queue: 0/40 (size/max)
5 minute input rate 22322000 bits/sec, 2171 packets/sec
5 minute output rate 5155000 bits/sec, 1487 packets/sec
20441503 packets input, 23941254166 bytes, 0 no buffer
Received 0 broadcasts (0 multicasts)
0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles
0 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored
0 watchdog, 0 multicast, 0 pause input
0 input packets with dribble condition detected
16323602 packets output, 9608971046 bytes, 0 underruns
0 output errors, 0 collisions, 0 interface resets
0 babbles, 0 late collision, 0 deferred
0 lost carrier, 0 no carrier, 0 PAUSE output
0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out
I can see drops in asic, output below:

For a second, I though that I had found my solution when I stunble into this
https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2111188?referring_site=kapi however the bug mentioned on that thread is just for 12.2(58) and later and I am actually running 12.2(53)
For the record QOS is disabled
Am I facing a hardware limitation? is there anything that I could do to improve performance?
Thanks for reading,
Fabio

The most common cause of interface drops is over subscription of available bandwidth. If the over subscription is transitory, you can sometimes increase buffering/queuing, which often decreases drops but increases latency. (Your SAN traffic might not be too happy with that either.)
If the over subscription is sustained, and you have no other flow control options (e.g. ECN, Ethernet full duplex flow control, etc.), best you can do is to "optimally" drop packets. ("Optimally" is dropping the fewest packets possible to regulate overall rate to available bandwidth.)
Your only other choice to deal with sustained over subscription is to increase bandwidth, which considering SAN traffic (w/o something like enhanced Ethernet) is probably your best/necessary option unless you have a mixture of traffic. Then using QoS you might be able to treat SAN differently and provide it the bandwidth it needs; other traffic would still be dropped.

Last clearing of "show interface" counters 03:25:04
Input queue: 0/75/0/0 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 78
Nothing out of the ordinary except this.

Hey Leolaohoo thank you very much for taking the time. What you mentioned above is exactly the reason for this discussion... Basically the total output drops of the interfaces connected to the SAN have big output drops.
The interface Gig0/1 above has been cleared the counters hence the number is small + the heavy activity on the SAN had ceased.
Don't you find strange the amount of drops shown on most ASIC ports?
Cheers,
Fabio

Hi Joseph,
Thanks for the post. It's a dedicated SAN switch, other than the management vlan there is nothing else.
There is no QOS the switch is doing FIFO.
Joseph at the moment we only have storm-controlI set on the interfaces restricting broadcast traffic. 'll give it a crack at the flow control option, thanks for pointing that out!
Cheers,
Fabio
