    ----
I have a server that has a ISCI connected drive. If i try to do a migration on a virtual machine to this drive the drive almost becomes exclusive to this process and all my other virtual machines running on this drive are affected until the migration is complete.............any ideas ?


Server is maxed at 144GB of ram.

what are you using for the hyper-visor layer?

I don't know what that is, sorry. I'm using windows hyper v services with the virtual machine manager.

Don't worry you've answered my question - you're using the Windows Hyper-V to host the virtual machines.

Unfortunately I've not got any experience with Windows in that role as I use VMware. Sorry.
