Summary:An anomaly in a shared input/ouput (IO) resource that is accessed by a plurality hosts or clients is detected when a host that is not bound by any QoS policy presents large workloads to a shared IO resource that is also accessed by hosts or clients that are governed by QoS policy. The anomaly detection triggers a response from the hosts or clients as a way to protect against the effect of the anomaly. The response is an increase in window sizes. The window sizes of the hosts or clients may be increased to the maximum window size or in proportion to their QoS shares.
