-systemcos priority_tag_for_system_traffic
(Optional) Specify the system-wide clustering priority tag that you want to be used by system traffic. The value must be in the range 0 (default) - 7.
Note: After changing -systemcos, you must run satask stopnode -warmstart orderly on all the nodes in the system.
-storagecos storage_priority_tag

Description

Use the chsystemethernet command to set system-wide Ethernet related properties. This command affects all existing and new iSCSI sessions. The priority of iSCSI packets changes immediately after the priority tag is changed by using the chsystemethernet command.

Note: PFC is supported on Lancer, Mellanox, and Chelsio. PFC is not supported on Intel.
