    • BW. The data transmission rate on the connection between the cluster and its client network.

    • IOPS. The number of I/O operations per second on the connection between the cluster and its client network.

    • Latency. The time needed to perform an I/O operation on the connection between the cluster and its client network.

  2. Open Cluster button. Opens the Cluster's VMS in another browser tab.
