That doesn't really surprise me that it's a bandwidth hog like that...

Also of note, the original command from the first post does still not work.

I'd say that is a good bit of information to have, but who is going to be moving PBX VM's midday? 😛

For me it was good to know that it works that smoothly, not because I plan to ever move one during the day. But because if I HAVE to move one during the day, I will be confident that it will work.

You did notice I up-voted your post? I was just messing with ya. Yeah, that was a valuable test, for sure.

Thanks. Marked as solved.

How did this project go?

Sorry for the confusion- its a development server, but i still need to make sure that these are updated with minimal downtime. I am trying to push the AD changes to some other time at least wait for the dev team to complete the tasks in hand, but not very sure if they will stop it just for us

Exactly - two 6 TB HDD's may be a lot less expensive, but the performance compared to SSD would be insanely different.

How many HDDs would you need to reach your IOPS requirements?

So the service is nothing but the GUI, as expected. 🙂 Thanks for verifying. Nice to know for sure I'm not crazy from time to time.

Well http://daerma.com is working perfectly, but http://JaredBusch.com is not updating the permalinks correctly. I will just nuke that one and redo it later and see if the problem goes away. I only have 3 posts on it.

@Dashrender While true, it's both a funding problem and a hardware limitation on what I have to work with. With that said however, I have disproven the fact that it is a dynamic memory problem as the data translation uses all 16GB of RAM while running the job but as soon as it's done, allocation drops substantially without the OS even knowing the difference. Also, running a second translation job this time using an iSCSI LUN that I setup on my new Synology NAS (just a small 10GB LUN to store and write data to as part of this test) is running much faster than with the local storage, but I'm using consumer level drives in the host machine as opposed to WD Reds in the Synology NAS. It's a very noticeable difference.
