Hyper V Disk performance

What is best way to monitor the Hyper V Disk performance ?

My Hyper V servers are connected with 10 gb SFP connector with SAN and I would like to see if there is any bottleneck.

Attached is the current performance.

There is a bug in EE, attachments do not get attached when you first post, you can edit the question and add it again.

Yeah,

I mean realistically if you want to check for bottlenecks you can use the following performance counters from the host:

Physical Disk(disk letter)\Avg. disk sec/Read

Physical Disk(disk letter)\Avg. disk sec/Write

Physical Disk(disk letter)\Avg. disk read queue length

Physical Disk(disk letter)\Avg. disk write queue length

If you're maxing out on disk speed, then you have an issue, but I doubt that. It certainly won't be on your SPF connectors. What SAN are you using?

It also depends on what kind of load your server is handling
If its simple file sharing then Hdtune should give a rough first idea
If its for services like SQL server then you need to check more sophisticated tools like Iometer
This question needs an answer!
