2) If you run a single-node (which is not considered to be a production scenario) make sure you DO NOT assign write-back cache to it as huge amount of writes would be discarded with storage node rebooted. OK, we'll throw a warning message in V8 or maybe disable single node write-back cache usage. Q...

So NTFS layered on top of LSFS should not be defragmented. NTFS inside VM should not be defragmented as well. Can you elaborate on this some more, not fully getting this. "NTFS layered on top of LSFS" and "NTFS inside VM" !, doesn't LSFS runs on any windows server File system ? ...

Has anyone Tested Diskeeper 12 or V-locity4 VM / Server [ ... ]? This should help with IOPS over the network, it also have an in-build tester.

Thick (ImageFile) devices don't support underlaying disks with 4k block size now. Previous versions allowed to create devices on such disks, but devices could function incorrectly. Now we have added check for 4k block size at the stage of device initialization. So if we tell Storage Space to use 8K...

What version of the VMware VAAI does v8 Beta 2 (8.0.6180) support ? I did a lookup on VMware Storage site and found the support for starwindsoftware 5.4 Ent-HA, for esxi 4.1U.

I would say Menu item!
