[quote=“Jaymes Driver, post: 28846, member: 3582”]Don’t use VMWare, FOG doesn’t exactly like VMWare SCSI drivers or the nic cards for that matter. The NIC is not so much of a problem as the SCSI drives are, and this causes a slowness with FOG.
You can take my recommendation with a grain of salt, I’m not climbing on a soap box to claim the issues doesn’t exist but rather try different platforms of visualization before you rule the issue as a problem with FOG, please.
I had FOG installed on ESXI and I experienced nothing but slowness and problems in my network. We haven’t the licensing and I haven’t the understanding of ESXI to change the settings to better work with FOG.
I have not had good experiences with FOG and ESXI.[/quote]
I know your not on a soap box an all but I have had excellent performance with FOG on ESXi. No issues with SCSI drivers or NICS. I used CentOS 6.4 to 6.5. I always use the LSI Logic Parallel SCSI controller and VMXNET3 NIC. Yum Update right after install of the OS. We run a master FOG server and 4 remote storage nodes all on ESXi.
