Hi,
I have DSS installed on a Virtual Machine running under ESX 4.1. 200 GB VMDK is presented via the ESX DataStore. 1 Target and 2 Vol Group created and presented to the ESX as an iSCSI Target. Formatted as VMFS and hosted 1 Windows 2k3 VM. I tested copying file locally inside the VM is very slow and gives me speed of 2.3 or 1.8 MB/s. Wherein if I move this VM locally to the same ESX Datastore and start to copy files locally I get 35 ~ 48 MB/s.
DSS is installed with 3 GB memory and 2 vCPUs.
What could be the issue and how can I achieve high read and writes?
Thanks,
