Re: What am I doing wrong?

Hello Kimberly,
Did you try to boot converted vhd(x) VM with both Generations?
I mean, if your VMware VM was "BIOS booting" it should be generation 1. If it was a UEFI/EFI it should be generation 2.

Re: Storage design considerations

Dear xy67, Thanks for your reply. Over-provisioning is 200% (LSFS files can occupy 3 times more space compared to initial LSFS size) and to avoid any troubles in the future this we need to create 596 GB LSFS Device. I am not sure I understand you properly. How do you want present 1.7 TB storage (if ...

Re: Storage design considerations

Hello xy67, Regarding ReFS: Of course, you can use ReFS instead of NTFS. But, ReFS is a new file system and it can be "unstable". In you case, I would recommend to use NTFS. If your total size of Underlying storage is 1788 GB we can calculate maximum recommended size of LSFS. 1788/3 = 596 ...

Re: Storage design considerations

Hello xy67, In your case I would recommend you to use RAID-5 instead of RAID-10, but if the capacity is not important for you, yes, RAID-10 is the best choice. If you want to use LSFS with deduplication you need to calculate total RAM memory for LSFS device. For example: Let's imagine you have an 10...

Re: Possible to convert a VS running on OnApp to run on VMware, XEN or KVM?

Hello EnterP,
Thanks for your interest in StarWind solution.
If OnApp supports qcow2 or any supported virtual disk standard format (vmdk, img, vhdx, vhd) you can convert the virtual disks from OnApp to KVM (qcow2), VMware (vmdk), Xen (img).
