• Allocation of resources for ESXi v5.1 host host-level default system?

  Someone could you please do me a favor and let me know what that the settings default for a host of v5.1 ESXi for Allocation of resources for the system at the host level? I messed them up and am not sure of the default values.

  Thank you!

  The default settings system resource allocation for a host in ESXi 5.1 are:

  CPU: 280 MHz

  RAM memory: 0 MB

• Allocation of resources to the virtual computer

  Hello

  I wonder if anyone can shed some light on what follows.

  When I create a new virtual machine and go the tab of the allocation of resources.  There are two different areas of the reservation.  One that we can configure other seems to be the maintained system.

  When the system is off the reserve which is managed by the system is listed as 126MB.  Once the system is powered on it goes down to about 90 MB and then slowly climbs back up to 126 MB.

  Can someone explain this.

  Thank you

  I assume you mean the memory overhead.

  Take a look at the memory overhead on the Virtual Machines in the documentation.

  If this isn't what you asked, please attach a screenshot of what you are looking for.

• Allocation of resources to the virtual machine over time

  I took trying to graph on the planning capacity in time for our clusters.

  Allowance only for the time being, use maybe later. Try trend how we allocate vms (spikes).

  I care about the elements are:

  Physics: Amount of processors in cluster, physical amount of RAM in the cluster - Total (at some point? don't think it's possible, but it would be nice)

  This part is less of a problem, I have something that works for this.

  Virtual: amount of virtual processors, RAM allocated - Total for each month

  The code has been changed on this topic (thanks, LucD!) and even more of various other segemnts.

  This makes me a nice referential list created of the time to work with:

  $SQLSERVER="MYSQLSERVER"
  $Database="VCDB"
   
  $SqlConnection = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection
  $SqlConnection.ConnectionString = "Server=$SQLSERVER;Database=$DATABASE;Integrated Security=True"
   
  $SqlCmd = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand
   
  $SqlCmd.CommandText = "select distinct lower(vm_name) AS vm_name, max(create_time) as create_time " +
                           "from VPX_EVENT " +
                           "where     (event_type like '%.VmCreatedEvent' or " +
                           "          event_type like '%.VMClonedEvent' or " +
                           "          event_type like '%.VMRegisteredEvent') " +
                           "group by vm_name"
  $SqlCmd.Connection = $SqlConnection
   
  $SqlAdapter = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter
  $SqlAdapter.SelectCommand = $SqlCmd
   
  $DataSet = New-Object System.Data.DataSet
  $SqlAdapter.Fill($DataSet)
  $SqlConnection.Close()
  $DataSet.Tables[0] | Export-Csv c:\vm_create-list.csv -NoTypeInformation
  

  Now that there is a file with the dates, I can use to reach the given date to an allocation of resources aspect:

  $creationtimes = Import-Csv 'c:\vm_create-list.csv'
  
  $realvms = Get-View -ViewType "VirtualMachine"
  
  $myCol = @()
  
  foreach ($item in $realvms) {
       
       $Row = "" | Select-Object CreationTime, NumCPU, MemoryMB
       
       $Row.NumCpu = $item.Config.Hardware.NumCPU
       $Row.MemoryMB = $item.Config.Hardware.MemoryMB
       
       $createtime = $creationtimes | ? {$_.vm_name -match $item.Name} | Select-Object create_time
       if ( $createtime.create_time -eq $null ) {
            # for VMs that exists but db has pruned data, lump into single date
            $Row.CreationTime = [datetime]'12/01/2007 00:00:00 AM'
       } else {
            $Row.CreationTime = [datetime]$createtime.create_time
       }
       
       $myCol += $Row
       }
  
  $myCol = $myCol | Sort CreationTime
  

  This leaves me with a picture of the beautiful collection of dates, number of cpu and the size of the ram.

  I am stuck now trying this summary by calendar month - output something like:

  month,numcpu,memorymb,numOfVMs
  2009-10,2,8192,1
  2009-11,3,12228,2
  2009-12,1,4096,1
  

  In order ultimate spill in tables and graphics with ceilings determined at the time of the first

  I realize that there is probably a way to bind the SQL query method as well and pull it all together in a script. No idea how to transform the DataSet that is returned to a Collection of usable objects.

  Unless someone out there has a great way to draw growth VM distribution over time?

  The Group-Object cmdlet can take more than 1 property group

  Something like that

  $mReport = @()
  $groups = $myCol | Group-Object -Property {$_.Date.Year, $_.Date.Month}

• Problems of allocation of resources motherboard PCI with PXI controllers

  I set up a test system to a PXI-PCIe8361 controller and a PXI-1042 chassis.  Several years ago, there are known problems with some motherboards on the assignment of the PCI resources.  I looked and could not find more old messages and lists of recommended motherboards.  It seems that ASUS is a manufacturer in order to avoid any Abit and Gigabyte function well.  Is there a list more up-to-date recommended motherboards or manufacturers?  Is it still a problem with the latest motherboards?

  Any information will be appreciated,

  Nick

  Hi Nick,

  PCI resource allocation issues are significantly less common with new mothers/BIOS maps. In situations where this problem always produces a BIOS update usually solves the problem. The best advice I can give if you buy a new computer for connection of MXI must go with a PC and a cell phone, who you are.

  These question is sufficiently rare that we do not maintain a list of manufactures suggested, if you encounter any problems you can call us at the 1-866-ASK-MYNI, and we would be happy to help you.

  Thank you

• Correct allocation of resources to VM CPU with hyperthreading VCPU ESXI 5.5

  Hello

  I've read various articles on trying to size of the allocation of CPU for virtual machines and performance of subjects with overcommitting, but still can't seem to find a definitive answer with hyper threading involved for this particular configuration and hoped that someone could clarify for me.

  Example 1 - Exchange Server 2010

  1 x 6 Core Processor (12 logic with hyper threading)

  There are currently 1 socket and 6 hearts are attributed to him on a possible 12.

  There is only 1 virtual machine running on the server. I would benefit from an increase in the nuclei of one of the following:

  1 outlet, 12 hearts

  6 sockets, 1 core

  12 Sockets, 1 core

  any other configuration?

  Example 2 - server has 2 x 6 Core processors with Hyper threading enabled. (12 cores, 24 logic)

  I want to attribute 2 physical cores to VM1, VM2 4 physical hearts and 6 physical cores to VM3

  Who would do the following:

  VM1 - 1 taken, 2 hearts VM2 - 1 socket, 4 cores VM3 - carrots 1 Socket 6

  VM1 - 1 socket, 4 core VM2 - 1 socket, 8 cores VM3 - 12 hearts 1 socket

  VM1 - 2 taken, 1 core VM2 - 2 Sockets, Sockets 4 hearts 2 VM3, 6 cores

  VM1 - 2 taken, 2 hearts VM2 - 2 taken, 8 cores VM3 - 2 taken, 12 hearts

  VM1 - 2 taken, 1 taken VM2 - 4 kernel, 1 core VM3 - 6 sockets, 1 core

  VM1 - 4 taken, 1 core VM2 - 8 Sockets, 1 core VM3 - 12 Sockets, 1 core

  any other configuration?

  No, you can allocate more vCPU you have. what you said it is fine. I usually go for a ratio of 6: 1. for example, with 12 cores, we have up to 72 vCPUS (it's all compared to the workload type and the size of the virtual machine through)

  I said that you never allocate a unique virtual machine more than the physical cores as the guest on the virtual machine OS think there full hearts to play with no hyper threaded no carrots...

  But hyper threading can give use better ability to commit the resources of the processor because it intelligently uses the additional threads when the performance will not be affected. as long as all virtual machines will not work 100%, then you can add more with no real impact. If you have listed these 3 VMs had to use 100% each you'd be using 100% CPU host not 50%. never use logical cores when it comes to calculations of ability only physical cores

  See you soon

• vSphere PowerCLI - of different values on the Allocation of resources and 5.1

  Hello

  I have a situation where I was trying to follow in one of our virtual machines that could miss the unlimited check mark on the allocation of memory to the title resources. In doing so, I was in a situation where powerCLI shows values different vsphere for memory and cpu shares until I removed and add the check unlimted box and clicked on OK.

  I guess my question is double.

  1. How will I know if the virtual machine variety is actually being allocated resources properly when there is this difference.

  2. If it's just a property not being pulled to the PowerCLI correctly I presume I can ignore it? If this isn't the case, you know another way to have it acknowledged correctly so I must not go through a hundred servers again and manually perform this procedure.

  Finally, if there is a real problem with the assigned resources hurt if I go through this process and now everything gets double maybe will we have problems with guests not being is not able to manage the new distributions?

  That's what it looks like, top is a bad server and down is a server has been fixed.

  Name: Server01

  MemoryMB: 4096

  NumCpu: 2

  VMResourceConfiguration: CPUShares: Normal / 1000 MemShares: Normal / 25600

  Name: Server02

  MemoryMB: 4096

  NumCpu: 2

  VMResourceConfiguration: CPUShares: Normal / 2000 MemShares: Normal / 40960

  Hope it makes sense.

  Thanks for any idea you may have.

  Shane

  PS... is it just me (IE11) or can't you copy and paste in the editor on this community?

  There is indeed a minor flaw in the value of the shares shows PowerCLI.

  To begin with, what you get for fixed levels are well documented.

  See the distributions of resources

  Which can be seen in the vSphere for a VM client

  

  It is a virtual machine that has 2 vCPU (2 x 1000)

  The cmdlet Get-VMResourceConfiguration to the PowerCLI returns the value that is actually in the VirtualMachine object.

  This value does not seem to take into account the fact that the virtual machine has 2 vCPU, while the vSphere client does not seem to take into account of the # of vCPU.

  

  You can check by doing

  Get - VM MyVM | Select the Name,@{N="CPU actions; E={$_. ExtensionData.Config.CpuAllocation.Shares.Shares}}

  However, if the level of shares is not personalized, the SDK Reference tells us "that if the level is not set to custom, this value is ignored."

  See SharesInfo

  In conclusion, the cmdlet PowerCLI is correct, it returns the value that is there, but this value is irrelevant unless the level is set to Custom.

  PS: I seem to have no problem to copy and paste in the editor.

• VSMP: Using Affinity and allocation of resources to evade planning issues

  Hi all

  I just read upwards in the http://communities.VMware.com/docs/doc-4960 about scheduling and I was wondering if set the processor affinity and allocation of CPU resources would be to circumvent the problems associated with the coscheduling. It seems to me the Scheduler would not decide what hearts to use and would be guaranteed resources on them, is that the case?

  Tom

  You decide what core use, but are no guarantee of resources on this topic.  Instead, you could hinder the efforts of ESX coscheduling itself, and if you have multiple virtual machines, then your server will actually last less efficiently than if left to its own devices.  Also, this will cause problems if you try to implement vMotion/DRS, affinity which would cause problems here.  Use the affinity with caution, it can help in some scenarios, but should be the exception and not the norm.

• Allocation of resources to the Department not generating INSERT event in PersonHasQERResource

  Worm of 7.01.

  I have a process on the PersonHasQERResource table. It triggers the INSERT and DELETE events.

  If I assign resources directly to the user the INSERT event I triggered and the process begins. The same happens when I remove the resource (DELETE event). If I assign the resource to a Department all employees get the resource and the PersonHasQERResource table. But the INSERT event is not raised. When I remove the resource from the Department the DELETE event is triggered and the process runs.

  Is there a setting that I forgot so the INSERT event fires on the transfer of resources department?

  Concerning

  Kai

  In Version 7 of the * Total tables have been removed and the default event entitled and remove were added to the tables to transfer.

  Allow your chain of process for these new events. That should do the trick.

  You'll find more in the online documentation.

• Allocation of resources for clients... a necessary model response.

  I do not do this for work, I'm just messing around with ESXi for fun at home.

  So I tried to read all supply vCPUs for customers. But I don't really get it. Are there any simple directions, cheatsheets, etc for the supply?

  In fact, my questions are:

  During the introduction of vCPUs? Bad idea?

  Must I leave 1 free kernel for the hypervisor?

  Must I leave any free RAM for the hypervisor?

  Sorry if these are stupid questsions. It is the first time I play with hypervisors from type 1, so there is a huge gap in my knowledge.

  Thank you!

  Welcome to the community,

  If it was that simple, you'd probably find a lot of blogs etc. covering essentially overcommitting resources (CPU, memory) is a great feature that allows to use resources effectively. The majority the VM do not need all the power of the processor, nor do they always have the entire memory that was. ESXi is a very good job on the management of scheduduling and the CPU memory. According to the actual workload of the virtual machines, you will need to know how far you can go with overcommitting resources.

• Allocation of resources to multiple activities

  Mr President.
  
  I'm trying to assignment of a single resource ' resource name: XYZ "for multiple activities using the right-click option,
  After you assign using this option, I had a problem with the resource.
  
  Problem is, for some activities, the "XYZ" resource is get assigned several times.
  Any solution to this.
  
  Thank you
  
  Imad

  This happens usually if you accidentally double click all by assigning the resource, or if this resource has already been assigned to this activity.

• Priority of the application over the allocation of resources

  Hello
  
  We are facing difficulties in obtaining the expected - planned orders
  
  We have the following scenario.
  
  Part Qty required Due date
  P1 2700 01/05/2009
  P2 2700 01/05/2009
  
  Resource is available 18 hours per day so that its use for the two cpl's to 60 units/hr. constraints CPSA with plan of decision rule creates split planned order to fill the demand for the two Cpl instead to fill one of them first and then move to another. Anyone of you knows the setups in CPHA, which may decide on priority Assly based resource or Cpl itself or the category of the part.
  
  The reason for this is that Planner factory does not publish a plan, where they have to change the models frequently on a single line.
  
  Thank you
  Nikhil

  Nikhil,

  The software does exactly what the user requests, but you can create a reasonable solution.

  They want to release the orders based on the category of the item. You can show them how interrogate the planned order based on the category element using 'Find' Oracle forms. You can also create a process where they can see several orders and expose the category column point the PTB using "field to display. They can now see planned orders by date, by post, according to the category of the item. Then, they adjust the dates that release desired and press.

  You can use the connection to the customer for each planned order, but it's a lot of time, it should be an exception process. You need to push on this requirement. If it is a process of exception, pegging offers complete visibility and works very well. To develop beyonfd this process, get them to use the priority of the application column in the PTB to set priorities.

• Script for booking of resource allocation of system of export to CSV

  LucD - your book is fabulous, but still a bit above my head

  I am looking for a way to get a CSV of subject CPU/Mem reserves at the level of the host as noted in respect of the Allocation of resources to Configuration/System

  

  Can this be achieved easily?  A list of all the items listed, even if the reservation is 0MB

  Since this post (http://communities.vmware.com/thread/174234), we can define them, but I'm looking for a list.

  Thank you!

  Andy

  Try it as

  function Get-VMHostSystemResource{    param($node)
  
      if($node.Child){        $node.Child | %{            Get-VMHostSystemResource $_        }    }    New-Object PSObject -Property @{        Key = $node.Key        CPUReservation = $node.Config.CpuAllocation.Reservation        CPULimit = $node.Config.CpuAllocation.Limit        CPUShares = $node.Config.CpuAllocation.Shares.Shares        CPUExpandable = $node.Config.CpuAllocation.ExpandableReservation        MemReservation = $node.Config.MemoryAllocation.Reservation        MemLimit = $node.Config.MemoryAllocation.Limit        MemShares = $node.Config.MemoryAllocation.Shares.Shares        MemExpandable = $node.Config.MemoryAllocation.ExpandableReservation    }}
  
  $esx = Get-VMHost MyESX $report = Get-VMHostSystemResource $esx.ExtensionData.SystemResources$report | Export-Csv "C:\SysResource.csv" -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture
  

  The script uses a function that is called recursively for each node.

  Notice that the New Object to create each entry does not keep the order of the properties, as they are defined in the hash table.

  If this is a requirement, let me know and I can give you some solutions.

  Thanks for the reference of the book :-)

  The idea was that the reader must be able to use the book as he progresses his PowerCLI knowledge.

  And that it would be available as reference when you have a task to perform in your vSphere environment.
