Granularity of Applied GMB Settings. Incremental bandwidth settings
greater than 0 and less than 100 are internally computed in steps of 1.0%. Thus,
the switch internally converts a configured bandwidth percentage to the
closest multiple of 1.0.
Impact of QoS Queue Configuration on GMB commands. Changing
the number of queues affects the GMB commands (interface bandwidth-min
and show bandwidth output) to operate only on the number of queues currently
configured. In addition, when the qos queue-config command is executed, any
previously configured bandwidth-min output settings are removed from the
startup configuration. Refer to Table 13-2 on page 13-20 for the default GMB
percentage allocations per number of queues.
