WINDOWS O.S. CONFIGURATION
If you are using SCSI Controllers in paraVirtual mode, add the following registry key on the server where you are mounting the LUn RDMs as a backup repository
- PVSCSI CONTROLLER QUEUE DEPTH: modify queue depth
Using the PVSCSI virtual storage controller, Windows Server is not aware of the
increased I/O capabilities supported. The queue depth can be adjusted for PVSCSI in
Windows Server to 254 for maximum performance. This is achieved by adding the
following key in the Windows Server registry:
Reg add “HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\pvscsi\Parameters\Device /v DriverParameter /t REG_SZ /d “RequestRingPages=32,MaxQueueDepth
NOTE: While increasing the default queue depth of a virtual SCSI controller can be
beneficial to an SQL Server-based VM, the configuration can also introduce
unintended adverse effects in overall performance if not done properly102. VMware
highly recommends that customers consult and work with the appropriate storage
vendor’s support personnel to evaluate the impact of such changes and obtain
recommendations or other adjustments that may be required to support the increase
in queue depth of a virtual SCSI controller.
