Re: [ovirt-users] Exporting VM's painfully slow
Hi, if you use sparse images this BZ might be helpful: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1156115 maybe you can backport the change to your version. The idea is to not use dd in order to move images. HTH -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Regards Sven Kieske Systemadministrator Mittwald CM Service GmbH Co.

Re: [ovirt-users] Exporting VM's painfully slow
I will give this a spin, I can't get these machines to import at all... The job fails and the tasks remain, and all the machines I tried to import are locked. -Original Message- From: users-boun...@ovirt.org [mailto:users-boun...@ovirt.org] On Behalf Of Sven Kieske Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2015 1:26 AM To: users@ovirt.org Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] Exporting VM's painfully slow Hi, if you use sparse images this BZ might be helpful: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1156115 maybe you can backport the change to your version.

[ovirt-users] Exporting VM's painfully slow
I am trying to export some vm's to bring them up in another system, and its
painfully slow.
I could be doing something wrong, or maybe there is a setting I can change
to make this process a little faster.
dd copies the image in 1MB blocks from what I can see in the logs, is there
any way to make it copy in say 64M blocks.
I know it won't be 64 times faster, I have been waiting a full 24 hours on
just one image. Large as it may be {100G}, I know dd can work faster than 24
hours for 100G
