T18588 NFS users not resolved

NFS access for local users or users that could be resolved in AD are not resolved in Performance Auditor display.  They are displayed in format <IP address>:<UID> .

Known Limitations

T14159 Performance Auditor rates may not match Windows File Explorer rates

Performance auditor rates are based on when the application layer commits the data. Applications can copy data but not commit the data to file. This is a key difference to understand between counting packets and MB saved to a file.

For additional information please refer to Performance Auditor documentation here.

Workaround: None required
