Hi Prashant, There are a couple of questions here:
1. Has your hardware been configured for optimal I/O throughput? 2. Have you installed XenTools on the VM? Slow VM Template Deployment: Initial Template download from SS is dependent on the SSVM, CPU, RAM and Network speed. Check that all of these have been configured to optimal speed & size. Initial template deployment is "slow" as the template needs to be copied from SS first. Subsequent deployments should be faster. Slow VM Reboot: This is dependent on the hardware configuration and whether PV drivers (XenTools) have been installed.
