Hello
the oVirt hosts in my cluster have all 10GbE interfaces (bonded 2 by 2),
and I was wondering if a single Linux VM with a virtio interface can reach
for example 8Gbps.
I'm asking because I'm seeing a 100% network usage in some VMs in ovirt VM
dashboard but the real traffic in that VM is between 1-2Gbps.
Thanks

Are you able from the host, first of all?

You might be able to, but it's not easy. You'll need to use NUMA and set
correctly the vCPUs pinning, perform correct tuning (multiple queues) and
so on. With SR-IOV I assume there's a better chance (lower latency), btw.
Traffic shown in the dashboard is averaged, is it a sustained 8Gbps or
bursty?
Y.
Thanks

Isn't the traffic shown on the dashboard based in 1Gbps always, even if
the hosts have 10Gb interfaces ?
Is there anywhere in oVirt config files or Database that you can tell to
the dashboard to consider 10Gb instead of 1Gb for those cases ?
Thanks

Not that I know of, but it doesn=E2=80=99t affect that available =

I=E2=80=99ve gotten ~3.5Gbps out of iperf with no appreciable tuning to =
a VM, so it=E2=80=99s definitely possible to get more speed out of them.
