Windows 2012 R2 on VDS

[erwinquek]

Hi,

I have Windows 2012 R2 on VDS and so far, things are working great.

However, under Windows 2012 Task Manger>>Performance>>Ethernet, traffic is reflected for send but nothing for receive.

Is this a known issue? Will there be any performance impact or something to be concern about?

I do not know of any known issues there, if you can contact us from the !help tab in your control panel we can take a look and be sure your servers bandwidth is Correct.

I contacted support and reply received "Looking at your historical bandwidth graphs, from the Server Usage tab of your NFO Control Panel, I am not seeing anything abnormal at all. To me it looks like fairly normal traffic patterns."

Those on Windows 2012 R2 Unmanaged VDS, is yours normal or also like mine? - please help verify.

It may just be a bug with the network drivers. IIRC we were looking into testing a newer version of the GPLPV drivers in the future. I'll poke around and see if I can reproduce this.

Please shoot a request to us and ask to be assigned to Cody. Be sure to reference this forum post.

Cody, did so as per your request.

You should be able to easily reproduce this as the "issue" exist with a fresh install of your Windows 2012 R2 image. (you might want to check the Xen version used in VDS that I am in, I think it matters too)
