So it's a single host 'cluster' using local storage.
Sorry for the late reply.
Define: local.
NFS, Gluster or ISCSI?
- Gilboa
Host Info:
CentOS Linux 8 - 4.18.0-305.10.2.el8_4.x86_64 (I keep fairly well updated)
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-7500 CPU @ 3.40GHz [Kaby Lake] {Skylake}, 14nm
The disk it's on is: WDC WD40EZRZ-00G (5400 RPM platter disk) - it's not
the fastest thing in the world, but it should be sufficient.
VM info:
Windows 10 Professional (Desktop not server)
6144 MB of RAM
2 Virtual CPUS
- Some settings I ran across for 'Performance' mode and a couple I had
seen on some similar issues (the similar issues were quite dated)
Running in headless mode
I/O Threads enabled = 1
Multi-Queues enabled
Virt-IO-SCSI enabled
Random Number generator enabled
Added a custom property of 'viodiskcache' = writeback (Didn't seem to
make any significant improvement)
As I type this though - I was going to add this link as it's what I
followed to install the storage driver during the Windows install and then
in the OS after that:
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/17463
I did notice something.. it says to create a new VM with the 'VirtIO disk
interface' and I just noted my VM is setup as 'SATA'.
Perhaps that is it. This is just my first attempt at running something
other than a Linux Distro under oVirt. When I first installed the Windows
guest, I didn't have the Virt-IO package downloaded initially. When Windows
couldn't find a storage driver, I found this info out.
I think I'll deploy a new Windows guest and try the 'VirtIO-SCSI'
interface and see if my performance is any better. It's just a default
install of Windows at this point, so that'll be easy. :)
Will update this thread either way!
