Hi Yedidyah,
Could you check the following read with *vmstat* operation, check the
complete image.
That's better, but please run them in parallel.
Open two windows, run 'vmstat 1' in one of them, see that you get
close-to-zero
'bi', then run 'dd' in the other, see that 'bi' gets higher, wait
a few
minutes,
then check oVirt metrics.
Thanks and good luck,
