vSphere 6 FT Performance Issues

Dear All,

I got VMware vSphere 6 clean environment (with latest updates) on top of IBM x3550 M5 servers.

I'm working with 10Gbps Ethernet NICs for VMKerne port group with FT Logging services on, and when I'm enabling FT on single Windows Server 2012 R2 VM with one vCPU (not even 4 vCPUs), the performance are sluggish. For example, PING latency is high (just like in this thread - https://communities.vmware.com/thread/515877) and also, when I'm trying to copy files such as 100MB is taking too long or doing other stuff such as opening Notepad.exe.

I'm working on top of VMFS datastore, and the VM working with Thick lazy disks.

When of course, I'm disable the FT everything running properly.

Any ideas? Suggestions?

Please assist.

Thanks,

Netanel.
