Hello,
we run several windows servers and windows clients on our vmware esx. One of the Windows 2003 Servers is a build-server with major a HDD issue.
This machine was a hardware before and was virtualized to the ESX. Is there any way to increase the HDD-Performance? Perhaps there are special windows (guest) drivers? The files are stored on a Raid6 base.
Performance graph of vmware infrastructure client shows reads up to 650 KBps and writes up to 4000 KBps.
There is also the following eventlog http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1009984 , but i cannot remove the driver as it is not listed in the "Non-Plug and Play Drivers" section. Might there be a driver issue with the HDD? I applied the Tools from our ESX Infrastructure client.
Thank you.
Regards,
Uwe
