[ovirt-users] Misaligned Disk after resize

[Daniel Helgenberger]

Hi Neil,

To severely impact iops with a single nonaligned VM - image the is
rather unusual.

Can you please be more specific:
IIRC, to run into the misalignment scenario you need block backed
storage for your VM. So FC / Posix / iSCSI but not NFS.
- The CPU load of the visualization host or the VM?
- Can you confirm (eg. with top) that you have constant a high IO Wait
(>20%) there?

Cheers,
