not by much. it might reduce the overhead if you use LVM volumes for virtual disks instead of using files, but if you're doing too much disk IO, there's not much that helps other than faster disks (or reducing the amount of reads by more aggressive caching via having more memory).




Thanks John

I will test and get the I/O speed results with the following and see what works best with the given workload:

Create 5 volumes each with 150 GB in size for the 5 VMs that i will be running on the server Create 1 volume with 600GB in size for the 5 VMs that i will be running on the server
Try with LVM volumes instead of files

Will test and compare the I/O responsiveness in all cases and go with the one which is acceptable.

Appreciate your responses in this regard. Thanks again..

Regards,
Jatin
