Oh, we know and are looking at what we'll have to do to upgrade. With
that said, is there more information on what you mentioned as "lvm
filters" posted somewhere?
Also, would VM reduction, and IMHO, virtual disk reduction help this
problem?
Is there and engine config parameters that might help as well?
Thanks for any help on this.
Based on a different older thread about having lots of virtual networks
which sounded somewhat similar, I have increased our vdsTimeout value.
Any opinions on whether or not that might help? Right now I'm forced to
tell my management that we'll have to "roll the dice" to find out. But
kind of hoping to hear someone "say" it should help. Anyone?
Just looking for something more substantial...
