Low performance when uploading to ESXi datastore

[Cameron Seay <cw...@gmail.com>]

Has anyone experienced low performance when uploading a large file to the
ESXi datastore?  And if so, what was your fix.

Thanks.

At one time we had experienced this, when directly uploading or
copying large files to a vmfs partition. It was on an older version of
ESX.

We are primarily using nfs for datastores now.

What are the disk specs of your ESXi server? How are you uploading the
large file?
