We have ELM appliance on Azure to create W10 master image with UL enabled to deploy thousands of VDIs through MCS. We noticed several issues.
ELM performance - mostly write speed when uploading image back from azure to ELM appliance or composing layer. it drops to 5mb/s even to less then 1mb/s and sometimes timeouts. Uploading image from ELM to Azure is quite fast 50mb/s. We use Azure connector with standard storage account, we didn't notice any improvement using premium storage account. ELM size on Azure Standard D4s v3 with premium SSD repo disk.
Is there any way to improve the performance, specially write speed? Importing layers taking ages in our case.
One more thing, how to manage page file in Azure? Leave it on temporary D: drive when creating layers? or set it to C: drive at OS layer?
