2024-01-31 Thread Michael Lipp
Just in case anybody is interested: Using dm-cache works and boosts performance -- at least for my use case. The "challenge" was to get 100 (identical) Linux-VMs started on a three node hyperconverged cluster. The hardware is nothing special, each node has a Supermicro server board with a sing
