Abstract
Methods and systems for monitoring performance in a distributed storage system described. One example method includes identifying requests sent by clients to the distributed storage system, each request including request parameter values for request parameters; generating probe requests based on the identified requests, the probe requests including probe request parameter values for probe request parameter values, representing a statistical sample of the request parameters included in the identified requests; sending the generated probe requests to the distributed storage system over a network, wherein the distributed storage system is configured to perform preparations for servicing each probe request in response to receiving the probe request; receiving responses to the probe requests from the distributed storage system, and outputting at least one performance metric value measuring a current performance state of the distributed storage system based on the received responses.
