Using Ssd Disks For Kvm Guests

Hi all,

Recently I have acquired a supermicro e200-8d micro server to use it as my homelab. It is equipped with two ssd disks.

My idea is to install several kvm guests on it, but I have some doubts about what type of filesystem (ext4 or xfs?) or block to use (lvm).

Recommendations? Do I need to accomplish some type of running if I choose to use ext4 or xfs??

Thanks.

  • Hi,

    I would use the recommended/default xfs and qcow2 for VMs. Have tuned set the profile to virtual host.
