Q & A
I thought it would be a good idea to start a FAQ page. If you have a question that you have been unable to find an answer too, post it in the comments section of this article page and I will try to find a solution. Over time I hope to be able to build a nice FAQ section.
P2V and Disk Alignment
There were some questions asked the other day regarding using VMware Convertor and whether it performs a disk alignment when performing a P2V. The answer is NO. VMware Convertor doesn’t do any disk alignment. You will need to carry out the alignment manually afterwards. I have listed some good links covering disk alignment and how to perform this task. http://communities.vmware.com/message/1184316 http://www.yellow-bricks.com/2009/01/17/check-your-vms-alignment/ http://www.dailyhypervisor.com/2009/05/30/vmtn-io-performance-in-vsphere-block-sizes-and-disk-alignment/

I have seen one of these before, and found them very amusing. Simon Seagrave at Techhead has posted these already, but thought it would be good to share with my readers as well.
