[gpfsug-discuss] GPFS & VMware Workstation

[Vic Cornell]

I do this on virtualbox a lot.

I use an OpenFiler VM to provide iSCSI targets to all of the VMs.

Works great as long as you dont actually put much data on it.

Not enough IOPS to go round.

It would run much better if I had an SSD.

Regards,

Vic
