Congested Ports/dropping Packets and QOS

Congested Ports/dropping Packets and QOS

Hello's
I'm experiencing port congestion and hence packets dropped on certain ports. This is an issue since the ports are VOIP ports.
My questions are as follows.
1) When I run Show ports congestion I see packets dropped on certain ports.
2) When I run Show ports QOSmonitor congestion I see no packets dropped.

I was under the impression that all traffic that was not marked would fall into the QP1 queue and other marked traffic would fall into the respective queues
If i'm dropping packets and can see this using the show ports congestion command, should i also not be able to see this in the qosmonitor congestion command? I'm trying to figure out what queue the traffic being dropped is in.

Many thanks for your time,
Blue

I'm experiencing similar issues. In our enviorment, I'm seeing ALOT of dropped packets to my VMs.

Ive read that you need to enable flow control tx and rx on all interfaces, which I have not done yet and will do this weekend.

Ill let you know how it pans out for me! (from Jeremy_Homan)
