How to get interface counters for SR-IOV VFs?
Issue
- How to get interface counters for SR-IOV VFs?
- Are there any statistics on the passthrough interface available on the hypervisor/compute level that could be checked and used in troubleshooting the packet drops that are happening on the instance that is using VF?
- As the tcpdump on SR-IOV is not possible, are the ethtool statistics trustworthy in the case of the SRIOV?
