Peter, once you provisioned a single VM for certain template, it's no longer copied from ss to primary, then boot is almost instant.
In our case, I can read from SS 800 MBs and write to primary on 1GBs, template copy for normal templates takes only 2-3 seconds. Again, when it is copied once, other VMs just use it. вт, 16 апр. 2019 г., 7:19 Andrija Panic <andrija.pa...@gmail.com>: > Hi Peter, > > initial template copy process from Secondary to Primary storage pool should > be decently fast, since you are doing sequential IO read from Secondary NFS > and doing sequential IO write to Primary Storage - that should be very fast > in general. > > No way around this process at the moment. > > Best, > Andrija > > On Tue, 16 Apr 2019 at 13:08, Nux! <n...@li.nux.ro> wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > It should already be very fast.
