Hello all,
Am about to build a new KVM server which will host a number of W2K8 Remote Desktop servers. We present storage to the KVM server via an iSCSI LUN for which the virtual machines are then built upon.
The question is whether we should use local disks for the virtual machines swap/paging file ? Windows always appears to be using its pagefile so am wondering if that would be better on locally attached storage.
Any help gratefully appreciated.

Thanks, Phil

Hi,
Is this list just for patch review or kvm help ?

I don't see the benefit of using local disks - unless your main storage
is slow and your local disks are fast (RAID, SAS, etc.).
