Hi any ideas on what could be causing the slow speed issue ?
I check the output of the show interfaces port-channel 1 command. and i don't see anything wrong .

What about a "show int" on each of the physical interfaces?

How about you disable one interface, does the issue disappear?

Show us the config for all 3 interfaces on each end of the link.

Show us a "show logg" opn each switch.
 
By slow speed what are you talking about it ? Gave little to go on . Where is the port channel attached and what is its function ? What transfer rate are you getting ?
 
First off thanks for the replies . The issue has to deal with transfer of files so SMB shares/ftp/scp/sftp all run slow across this link it's connect to a cisco 3750. Here's the interface information from both devices.

OK, how about the config and the loggs.

Also, define "slow".

Do your own test - when people complain a network's "slow", they usually mean "my server is crap and the apps I've installed on it are even worse".
 
Between the devices people are complaining about run some extended pings , if response times are reasonable you are probably looking at server issues . Do this during so called slow response times. People will always blame the network when very few times it is . Also look at the links on these servers during slow response times and look at utilization rates etc... I assume the servers are attached at a gig also .
 
I have the same issue with the same rates.

HPc7000-cisco3125-10g - 10g Nexus7K - 1g 3560 SM - 1g - SM 3750 PC 2g PC HPc7000.
Verified all interfaces are at correct speed. Tested near end server to server and far end server to server and I get 60MB-70MB. Far end to near end server 76Mbits. Running as if on a 100Mb network. Nexus is using L3 sub-interfaces I cant find anything about it possible dropping a connection to 100Mbits plus the sub-interface shows 1g.
 
thanks everyone i checked all the connecting devices interfaces for duplex and speed anything match can't found any errors when we do an iperf here's what we get im thinking it's a windowing issue .


MY COMPUTER <—————AVG 3 Mbit/s————— > 192.168.1.10 (Fileserver)
MY COMPUTER <—————AVG 3 Mbit/s————— > 10.10.30.3 (esx server running quickbooks)
MY COMPUTER <—————AVG 70 Mbit/s————— > 10.10.x.20


All prefixes are configured on the same core switch .
 
That's incredibly slow - what's the latency on those links, if you ping with a large packet size?
 
Is QoS enabled? There are some issues with the default queue sizes that cause high-rate TCP flows to see drops.
 
What do your layer3 interface look like? Doing any qos or firewalling?
