• Questions on the host memory usage

  I was wondering if someone could give some insight on the following situation. We vSphere host set upwards with 32 GB of RAM. On this, we have 10 VMware View desktops and a couple Server VMs. We have configured each in order to have 2 GB of RAM. The host is showing an alarm for the host memory usage, but if you look at each of the virtual machines Windows XP, memory is granted way superior to the active memory. We have no reserve set and actions are set to normal. I wonder why the system reports a memory constraint when the largest part of the memory is alocating is not active.  In addition, the shared memory is showing 0. So this means that the memory page sharing does not locate? Am I missing something?

  ESX has called fresh General.  A virtual machine has 2 ways to manage memory.  a physical machine has one, physical RAM, and when this physical RAM disappeared, the operating system is left with only one option, Exchange.

  VM works the same way.  A material divides the virtual machine into small sections, only they have hard limits.  So your VM is 2G, the operating system and virtual machine sees only 2 GB of RAM.  When this RAM was gone, the operating system must decide where the extra RAM is come.  Since it is a Vritual machine, the RAM of the machine can ALSO be swapped.

  So, when you create a virtual machine, and you do not have reservations, you say that the Virtual Machine to get the RAM of the host, if this fails, get from a pagefile on the RAM disk.  If not THEN the operating system can use internal swap, but ESX requires a virtual machine to use his 'balloon' driver to lead you to the top of RAM internal and fool the operating system into thinking that he MUST use internal swap. It is probably where you are confused.

  The use of the RAM that you see is the virtual machine, taking all THE RAM of the host.  If the host has say 48GB of RAM, and you have the run of the 10 mV, which is more than 20 GB of RAM in use.  There is a LOT of RAM left other virtual machines, so in this case, the memory of the host is high (use), but not ACTIVE, which means allocated for the virtual machine, but the OS is not really 'use' for the moment.

  When you add multiple virtual machines, you will see this fall.  Keep in mind they can really share the memory too, so among those 20 VM with VM similar (like Windows), they are all windows (suggests) and 30% of that share these 20 VM, so 30% 20 GB is 7 GB, so 13 GB that is actually used, so in a perfect world, ideal conditions your host should be about 15 GB used probably less active 6 GB, but EACH VM shows 2 GB of memory host, right?

  It's normal.  When one approaches the limit of host memory that these figures will change, from OS and need and that the BONE... and to complicate things even more, reservations and VM limits and priority will ALSO skew the numbers.

• Problem with Virtual PC: can automatically log on to the comments because the host name is added comments user name after you have entered identifying information.

  When activate the integration in Virtual PC features, then the dialog box "Enter your credentials" appears. After entering the username and password of the system cannot connect because the host name is added in front of the user name that I entered. Example: Guest user name is "Admin". The host name is "XYZ". Vrtual PC try to connect as a user "XYZ/Admin" on the comment system. After getting the error message I can manually correct the user name in the normal windows login screen on the client and open a session. However, no saved credentials, to be asked to log on again whenever I have resize the Virtual PC window. Any ideas how to solve this problem? Thank you!

• Adding data to the ESX host store

  Hi all

  We are automating the process of adding data to the esx host store. We have all the necessary inputs as a host, Cluster, data center, data store name, store (VMFS) Pat data.

  Do we have the cmdlets to get the result? What is the data store should be added after the configuration of the network?

  We need confirm that the data store must be there in vcenter/Cluster?

  Please help explain the process.

  Thanks and greetings

• Adding more than one host ESX and the upgrade at the same time.  What is the order of preference of the operations here?

  We are budgeting for more licenses and hardware for 2014 and want to do immediately in January.  I am trying to decide what is the best order of operations for adding two vmware hosts additional to our current installation of vsphere and also upgrade our vsphere / esx 4.1 u3 for the latest and best.

  We have 3 Dell PowerEdge R710 running ESX 4.1 U3.  In this vmware cluster, there is a vcenter server 4.1 U3 virtual machine handle this.  The three servers are about 90% memory used so we add 2 additional servers.  Probably the Dell PowerEdge r.620 since we get up 2 in the space of a 710.  Storage is on a san EMC NX4 NFS which will become too but not yet, let's just deal with the vmware part.

  When adding additional r.620 2, should I install ESX 4.1 on them and join them to the existing cluster and THEN pass vcenter and each one esx?  I ask precisely because 90% of use on 3 current servers, I need 2 other servers to support the update operations take place.  They would be able to repel vmotioned vm while each host receives an upgrade at the same time.

  So which is the best way to go about adding of the hosts and the upgrade?  Would I add as 4.1, then they would be available as targets vmotion and so I have room to start the hosts one upgrade at a time?

  If I update vcenter to the latest version, it is comparable backwards and can manage the 4.1 hosts, but also hosts 5.x?  I guess version 5.5 is the last one I would get from VMWare?  It is right of ESXi, then, how is this ESX ESXi 5.5 4.1 upgrade?  How much storage space do I need for ESXi 5.5, as I'm dechatoiement out of these r.620 Dell and need to know what hard drive to put in.

  The steps that you must follow

  -Updated vCenter Server

  -Upgrade of the ESX hosts (because we do a updating of the material we will install 5.5 on our new guests and add them to the cluster and then dismantle our existing)

  -Upgrade VMWare tools

  -Update data warehouses

  ESXi 5.5 has these storage requirements:

  • Installing ESXi 5.5 requires a boot device is at least 1 GB in size. When booting from a local disk or SAN/LUN iSCSI, a 5.2 GB drive is necessary to allow for the creation of the VMFS volume and a scratch 4 GB partition on the boot device. If a smaller drive or logical unit number is used, the installation program attempts to allocate a region scratching on a separate local disk. If a local drive is not found, the scratch partition (/ scratch) is located on the disk virtual ESXi host, linked to the/tmp/scratch. You can reconfigure /scratch to use another drive or logical unit number. For best performance and memory optimization, VMware recommends that you leave no /scratch on the ESXi host ramdisk.
  • To reconfigure / scratch, see Configure the Scratch Partition of vSphere Client vSphere Installation and Installation Guide.
  • Because of the sensitivity of the I/O devices, USB and SD, the installation program does not create a partition scratch on these devices. Therefore, there is no tangible benefits to the use of the great features of USB/SD that ESXi uses only the first 1 GB. When installing on USB or SD, tent Setup devices to allocate a region scratching on a local disk or the data store. If no disk is local or data store, /scratch is placed on the virtual disk. You must reconfigure /scratch to use a persistent data store after the installation.
  • In Auto deploy facilities, Setup attempts to allocate a region scratching on a local disk or the data store. If no local disk or data store is found /scratch is placed on the virtual disk. You must reconfigure /scratch to use a persistent data store after the installation.
  • For environments that start from a San or use Auto Deploy, it is not necessary to assign a separate logical unit number for each ESXi host. You can co-locate areas scrape for several hosts ESXi on a single LUN. The number of hosts assigned to a single LUN must balance the size of the LUN and behavior I/O virtual machines.

• NFS share for one (1) added when adding to a new host in the existing data center

  I'm sure it's a simple answer, but I've been beating my head on the wall, trying to find a solution. The scenario is as follows:

  1 Vcenter has several hosts in different groups. All built at the same time with a NFS share that is shared among all.

  2. I add a new host to the data center (I tried independently and also added to a cluster as well).

  3. the new host sees its local disk as a data store, as expected, but I have to add the shared NFS datastore.

  4. at the level of the host, I go to configuration-storage-add storage and the NFS share.

  It shows and normal with NFS (1) as the name. I can't rename it as it says THAT NFS already exist. I understand that there are in the vcenter DB, but how to add this new host or host an existing environment and maintain the name of the NFS share? vCenter 5.5, 5.5 esxi

  Thanks for your help

• What host will allow the maximum ram for the virtual machine?

  I currently took an image of a Windows 2003 small business server backup and put it in a virtual machine that I use to run vmplayer. The host is Windows XP pro. With superior memory about 3.6 GB Windows XP, I can't allocate 4 GB for Windows 2003. I would be able to allocate more if I used Windows 7 64 bit as my host with 12 GB of Ram?

  Hello

  Welcome to the VMware community forums!

  A simple question and a simple answer. YES, when you switch to Win7 x 64 and have more than 4 GB of memory in your host application, you will then be able to use more memory for your comments. If Windows SBS 2003 is able to treat all of the 4 GB that you can set the memory to 4 GB.

  Hope this helps,

• Upgrading RAM for the installation of 64-bit guest OS on 32-bit host OS

  Hi all

  I am a total newbie to VMWare and I have a curious question.  Currently, I have an Intel Core i7 920 PC running on Windows 7 Ultimate 32 - bit with 3 GB of RAM DDR3 triple channel. I just installed VMWare Workstation version 7 on this PC.

  Now, I understand that Win7 32-bit build does a maximum of 3.4 GB RAM logically and not beyond. My intention here is to move the RAM to 9 GB, and then install the version 9.04 of Ubuntu 64-bit on VMWare with 6 GB of RAM reserved for the Ubuntu. My question then became: the guest OS (Ubuntu) would be able to use the 6 GB of RAM that I intend to allocate to it from the host OS (Win7), does that up to 3.4 G memory?

  I want to thank everyone in advance for your help.

  Best regards

  Peter Lee

  Hello Peter,.

  Unfortunately, you will need to have a 64-bit OS host to do what you want. The guest operating system will not be able to use memory that is presented to it through the host. Is there a particular reason that you have installed Windows 7 32 bit instead of 64-bit?

  See you soon

• I would like to get this right... adding assets to the Library increases RAM usage?

  I'm almost done with a fairly large RPG containing more than 2000 bitmap resources and music.  When I run this app in iOS, Android or on PC, my RAM usage is well above 100 MB. I have no script code.  The game is divided into about 100 classes AS3 (1 per level).

  As an experiment, I deleted all my code and packed an app 'empty '.  My RAM usage is always greater than 100 MB.  This leads me to believe that my entire libraray is loaded into RAM at the spearhead of my application.

  Is there a way to control or prevent this?  Class Loader? External assets EFA?

  Everything you have built in your application is loaded into memory when the application is deployed. There is nothing you can do about it.

  SWC will not help. CFC is used, primarily, as an external when creating library and all of the objects referenced in the creation will be always compiled into the application unless you use RSL and load additional libraries when running. By checking "merged into code" you always ask the compiler to include all assets. If you merge in code - you will need to write the logic that loads libraries during execution.

  The main issues in your case, it's that you compile media files in the application. Videos, sounds and, to a lesser extent, the images are the biggest hogs memory. You must load them during execution - do not include them in your application. In particular, it comes to sound files - Flash is very good runtime playback/streaming.

  When I say "runtime loading" I don't mean not necessarily load from the network/Internet. Given that you develop mobile applications (I guess with air)-you can write these assets in the file system during installation and then recover as needed.
