Hi,
I am wondering if a lot of people out there are running VMware virtualized Linux MySQL machines on NetApp storage ? Any thoughts on how to configure things to get the best performance ?
What are people generally doing ?
- database on vmdk file in VMware datastore (and from ESX using either NFS, iSCSI or FCP to access the datastore) - NFS mount of a NetApp volume from the Linux MySQL machine - iSCSI LUN mapping from the Linux MySQL machine - FCP LUN mapping (via Raw Device Mapping in VMware)
Any thoughts and recommendations ? Thanks in advance!
Best regards, Filip
