I/O request taking longer than 15 second

  • Hi all

    I am facing this I/O issues at my prod db. After doing a little research, this issue is due to storage I/O. But i am thinking to add another datafiles for my temp database. What do u think ?

  • I don't think that will help. Most of those errors are not from tempdb, they're from another database. And, everything is from drive F. It looks like that drive is either completely overwhelmed, or there's something wrong with the hardware, or there's something wrong with the disk configurations. It's most likely something with the hardware or the disk configurations.

  • Adding files onto a disk subsystem that is already overwhelmed can only make things WORSE!!! You will be INCREASING disk seeks and head thrashing.
