VMware ESXi 7.0.2 U on-prem disk performances issue on VM

SullivanDr — Wed, 30 Nov 2022 09:05:42 GMT

Hello guys,

I have an issue with a VM on a VMware ESXi 7.0.2 platform on prem

A VM has been generated to me so I can install a software but I have disk performances prerequisites to respect (SSD, 250Mb/s throughput and over 7500 IOPS).

The VM provided doesn't match those prerequisite :

IOPS are below 500 and throughput is around 20-30 Mb/s.

The on-prem environment should be using SSD disks but based on the performances it doesn't look like SSD.

When we create the VM, we don't have much option when we select the disk, it's just "Parallel SCSI".

Is there anything we can do to enhance performances of the disk and reach my target ?

Thank you for your help.

Best Regards,

Sullivan Drouard

Sorry for that question but tell which guest OS and if VMware tools are installed?

Hello Maksym007,

I was supposed to have a session with my customer and VMware support to get an answer to your question but finally it didn't happen and they went on a physical server to have the right performances.

Thank you for showing up and trying to help, I appreciated very much !

Have a nice day.
