We would have a VMFS-3 volume large or small volumes?

Hi, I have three questions.

Question No. 1: The format ESX3.5 storage through VMFS-3 file system. What is the name of ESX4 file system.

Question 2: What is the maximum size of VMFS-3 volume?

Question 3: what is the recommended to VMFS-3 volume size? Should a one big disk or several small pieces considereing loads of e/s and combined question.

Kind regards

1 ESX4 always use 3 VMFS. In fact, ESX VMFS 3.31 used 3.5 and ESX 4.0 uses 3.33, but ESX 4 can work with warehouses of 3.31 data without any problem.

2-64 to - 32 degrees 2 to everyone.

3. There is no recommended size. Everything depends on your size of virtual machines and the load. The only way to determine what size should your VMFS be - to measure the e/s VM load and compare with throughput of disk array.
