[ovirt-users] Re: Terrible Disk Performance on Windows 10 VM

The storage domain lists the type as "Local on Host". It's been a while since I set it up, but I thought the engine deployment had an option for local storage. The VM's reside in a directory under /opt on the Physical Host. https://i.postimg.cc/z3mMNj3J/Capture.png I forget which version I actually deployed.. but it's at 4.4.5.11-1.el8 now. Prior to installing oVirt, I was using KVM, but where I worked at the time migrated from Oracle's old 'OVM' to 'OLVM' which is basically an older version of oVirt with an Oracle icon :) The Oracle version wouldn't allow for local storage in any form. So I was pleasantly surprised that the version of oVirt I installed at home did allow it. I already had a NFS share setup anticipating that I would need to use NFS for my home setup, but didn't actually need it. Thing is.. I'm just spoiled with SSD data transfer/access/write speeds now, lol. I do keep various data I don't access constantly on some spinning disks, like media, ISO files and such. But for OS booting speeds - completely accustomed to SSD! I'll be looking forward to using those SSDs I have. They have been sitting for almost a year now in a drawer.
