    I have a KVM with Windows Server 2008R2. Everything runs normally however file copies will occasionally hang for multiple minutes. It happens for both local and LAN copies.

    Virtio network interface slow to connect (windows)

    I have two VM's (win2008 and win2008r2) using the latest virtio drivers (0.1-52) and the network card is very slow to start. I find that it's usually 2-4 minutes after logging in from the console before the connection is established. Both servers are using static IP's so it's not the DHCP...

    Spin down USB hard drive?

    I'm using a USB hard drive as a backup target. I realized today that the disk is spinning all day even though the backups only run at night. Is there a way to have the disk 'sleep' during the day and only turn on at night for the backups? I'm going to test it but one site suggested adding...
