Hi,
Am I the only one that gets about 10Mbps (Megabits/second), or about 1MB/sec (megabyte/sec) throughput when using the ovftool to import a VM on a 1Gbps LAN? I would assume there is some type of throttle on the service console network interface, even though I haven't found any evidence from the forums that indicates this is true. It's just a little strange that we're getting "exactly" 10Mbps. This happens on multiple vCenter servers and ESX clusters so I'm assuming it's a throttle. From the one machine I run the ovftool from, I can import to 2 different clusters and get 20Mbps (10Mbps on each).
This is on vCenter 4.0 Update 2 and ESX 4.0 Update 2 (not ESXi) as well as 4.1 versions of these.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Eric
