New vApp functionality: slowdown in VM creation #2

Open maartensl opened 10 years ago

maartensl commented 10 years ago

It is not clear whether the new functionality slowed down VM provisioning - it could simply be a busy cloud provider - however the "creating bound missing VMs" step failed with timeouts several times before succeeding, and was very slow. This doesn't usually happen.

It was mentioned on the mailing group discussion that "It is possible that VM provisioning is slightly slower since we are now recomposing a single vapp multiple times to create each of the VMs." Is there anything that could be done to speed up the process?

Could it be the default timeouts that have decreased with the latest cpi ?

On my side, I've set it to the following in the bosh manifest:

 vcd:
[...]
    entities:[...]
      control:
        wait_max: 3600 # maximum wait seconds for a single task
