Hello Meanie,
That is true. XenServer does not support IOPS per volume. I did asked
Citrix about a year ago about that. With the recent new features regarding
storage (thin provisioning over shared block devices!) I really hope they will
continue they focus on storage with the next release 8.0.

Best regards,
Jordan

Subject: IOPS limitation with XenServer as hypervisor
Hi all,
do I get it right, that there is no way to limit IOPS per volume with XenServer
as hypervisor? (Using ACS 4.11)
I tried the settings to limit IO bandwidth and IOPS per volume on hypervisor
side with XenServer and only the bandwidth limitation seems to have an effect.
Seems to me, that this is not supported from the XenServer side at all. Is that
correct?
See:
https://bugs.xenserver.org/browse/XSO-580
https://github.com/xapi-project/blktap/issues/241
Are those features working with KVM?
Greetings, Melanie
