I'd try running filemon to determine what task is causing the I/O. Also
as a hunch I'd check your AV.

Subject: [THIN] Disk I/O problem

 

We are in the process of doing a proof of concept with PS4 and new
hardware, etc.  We have 3 PS4 servers built.  1 as the DC, 1 as a
published desktop server and 1 as the published applications server.
Users login to a published desktop and get there icons via the PNAgent
running for each desktop.  The applications are all published from the
3rd server.  We have roaming profiles and the desktop and application
data folders are mapped to individual folders on the network so that
they follow them around.  
 
We are having problems with disk writes on the desktop server.  For some
reason the disk I/O is going crazy on that server alone.  SO much so
that the server lags tremendously.  ANy have any idea why this might be
happening?  If anyone knows of a way to determine what is actually being
written too, that would help as well.  We have tried NetIQ and other
monitors but cannot find anything that tells us what is actually being
written too on the disk.


Thanks,
Michael Boggan
