Best-practice for hardware virtualization?

Hardware virtualization is disabled by default when I create new virtual machines in my VMware clusters. But what are the best practices for this what settings are recommended? Are there reasons NOT to activate the hardware virtualization?

IMO there is no advantage in allowing virtualization of hardware if you have no need for the virtual machine (for example, a virtual host of the ESXi).

  • Best practices for hardware issues

    Hi all.

    I suspect my questions are unanswered, but here go us...

    Assuming that is the CPU of the same frequency and generation, which is better: less physical Sockets with more physical cores/socket OR more physical sockets with less physical cores/socket?  (For example, a "populated with dual-core CPU Server Socket 8" or '2 socket populated with processors octo hearts'?-of course,. )

    In the same vein, which would be better: a cluster with 10 guests with simple plugs or 5 guests with double?  (Same CPU and with the understanding that there is no VM requires more resources that the host can provide.)  No claim of CPU or RAM)

    Thoughts?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    In my view, licenses vSphere is always per-socket, an important point for those who write checks!  And then there's NUMA.  If you have an idea of the size of the virtual machines, you are going to be running, you can purchase the equipment that matches your NUMA characteristics.

    As for your second question, you ask the old question of the ladder up against the scale.  You will find many opinions as people you ask.  The answer, "it depends," is largely true here if you need to enumerate and analyze your needs and your constraints.  A few things to ponder scale vs. scale out:

    -With hosts more, smaller, less virtual machines will be affected during a failure of the host

    -On the other side of the first, fewer and larger armies with multiple virtual machines can take more time to recover these VMs for an HA event

    -More great guests costs usually more little guests

    -Small hosts limit the size of your virtual machines compared to larger armies

    It has more advantages and disadvantages of each as well as what has already been mentioned in this thread.  Good luck!

  • Best practices for managing strategies of path

    Hello

    I get conflicting advice on best practices for managed paths.

    We are on version 4.0 of ESXi connection to a HP EVA8000. Best practices guide HP recommends setting the strategy of railways handle on Round Robin.

    This seems to give two active paths to the optimized controller. See: http://h20195.www2.hp.com/v2/GetPDF.aspx/4AA1-2185ENW.pdf

    We used certain consultants and they say that the best practices of Vmware for this solution is to use the MRU policy which translates a single path to the optimized controller.

    So, any idea what good practice is best practice? Does make a difference?

    TIA

    Rob.

    Always go with the recommendation of the storage provider.  VMware recommendation is based on the characteristics of the generic array (controller, capable ALUA failover methods, etc.).  The storage provider's recommendation is based on their performance and compatibility testing.  You may want to review their recommendations carefully, however, to ensure that each point is what you want.

    With the 8000, I ran with Round-Robin.  This is the option of creating more robust paths available to you from a failover and performance point of view and can provide performance more even through the ports on the storage controller.

    While I did of the specific tests/validation, the last time that I looked at the docs, the configuration of HP recommends that you configure each IO to the ports in the switch configuration.  This adds the charge to the ESX host, the switch to other ports, but HP claims that their tests showed that it is the optimal configuration.  It was the only parameter I wondered in their recommendation.

    If you haven't done so already, be sure to download the HP doc on configuring ESX and EVA bays.  There are several parameters that you must configure the policy path, as well as a few scripts to help make the changes.

    Virtualization of happy!

  • AF best practices for video

    I'm using an EOS 7 d for 1080 p HD video shooting. New to SLR camera and digital video. I have watched several tutorials but do not yet have a good understanding of what the best practices for the development.

    If I put the camera in AI Servo it will auto focus if the subject is moving away or toward me with depress me back AF-ON or the shutter button? Or should I press one of these buttons to make the camera continues to focus?

    You know tutorials or video lessons that cross using update with the video?

    Thanks in advance!

    I don't know any tutorials, but more serious videographers say it is best to use only the manual focus.

    Trial and error is a good teacher, when it comes to video DSLR. You'll quickly learn that video Auto Focus is really bad with the 7 d and most of the people do not use it all together.

    The method that works for me is to use AF before the filming of the video and then adjust manually if you want to you to shoot the video. With the help of f/8 or f/11 to keep everything in short without having to keep the setting.

    More recent Canon DSLR's like the T4i, T5i, 70 d and SL1 have a "hybrid AF" that does a much better job of AF during video, but it is not yet as good as a camcorder

  • I would like to know the "best practices" for unplugging my computer permanently to the internet and other updates.

    Thank you for taking the time to read this. I would like to know the "best practices" for unplugging my computer permanently to the internet and other updates. I thought I would do a clean install of Windows XP, install my Microsoft Works again and nothing else. I would like to effectively transforming my computer into a word processor. He continues more and more slow. I get blue screen errors, once again. I received excellent Microsoft Support when it happened before, but since my computer is around 13 years, I think it is not worth the headache to try to remedy. I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, and my computer would not be able to upgrade. Please, can someone tell me how to make it only a word processor without updates or internet connection? (I already have a new computer with Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium, it's the computer that I use. The old computer is just sitting there and once a week or so I updates.) I appreciate your time, thank you!

    You can choose which site to reinstall XP.

  • HP stream 11-d008tu: best practices for migrating to Windows 10?

    Hey there, I have a HP flow 11-d0008tu and received the notification I can upgrade to Windows 10. I want to do a clean install with a downloaded ISO but knowledge first of all, it is better to upgrade so that you get the activation done.

    Can someone give me some ideas on best practices for the upgrade? The stream has only 30GB HD so I have no recovery disk, I'll just do a recovery later on USB or SD card. When I do the upgrade can deselect recovery option or delete?

    Also, any other suggestions appreciated, especially which helps make effective for small HD

    See you soon

    Hi, I posted an installation procedure for Windows 10 fresh for the Tablet HP Stream here.  Also, I have a laptop 11 flow but do not have that yet. I think it must be the same because they both the same drive of mem 32 GB Hynix. A change would you probably want to use the 64-bit instead of 32-bit Windows 10 ISO file, the Tablet has only 1 GB of RAM.

  • Just improved m tips on best practices for sharing files on a Server 2008 std.

    The field contains about 15 machines with two domain controllers, one's data is the app files / print etc...  I just upgraded from 2003 to 2008 and want to get advice on best practices for the establishment of a group of file sharing. Basically I want each user to have their their own records, but also a staff; folder. Since I am usually accustomed to using windows Explorer, I would like to know if these actions can be done in the best conditions. Also I noticed on 2008 there is a feature of contacts. How can it be used? I would like to message or send an email to users their file locations. Also, I want to implement an admin at a lower level to handle the actions without making them far in on the server, not sure.

    I read a certain bbut I don't like test direct more because it can cause problems. So basically a way short and neat to manage shares using the MMC, as well as the way that I approach their mail from the server of their actions. Maybe what kind of access cintrol or permissions are suitable also for documents. Also how can I have them use office templates without changing the format of the model.

  • Best practices for vsphere 5.1

    where can I find the doc more up-to-date about berries EQL configuration / best practices with vmware vsphere 5.1

    Hello

    Here is a link to a PDF file that covers best practices for ESXi and EQL.

    Best EqualLogic practices ESX

    en.Community.Dell.com/.../20434601.aspx

    This doc mentions specifically that the storage Heartbeat VMKernel port is no longer necessary with ESXi v5.1.  VMware has corrected the problem that made it necessary.

    If you add it to a 5.1 system it will not hurt.  It will take an IP address for each node.

    If you upgrade 5.0 to 5.1, you can delete it later.

    Here is a link to VMware which addresses this issue and has links to other Dell documents which confirm also that it is fixed in 5.1.

  • [ADF, JDev12.1.3] Best practices for maintaining a form validation

    Hallo,

    in my application, I need to create a registration form which contains fields that must be validated (for example they should follow a format like e-mail, phone number, tax code,...).

    If the data inserted by the user are ok, a new record in my custom db table Users will be created.

    I would like to know which are the best practices for maintaining the validation, which means the place where the controls must be made and a message to the user who fills out the form when something goes wrong.

    The best vo or EO or managed bean? Or some controls should be put in the OS, others in the VO and other in the managed bean?

    I would be happy if you could give me some examples.

    Thank you

    Federico

    Assuming you want the validation on the value of the field to any screen data can be entered in (and possibly web services that rely on the same BC ADF) then put the validation on the definition of the attribute in the EO.

    If you want to add a little more friendliness and eliminate some of the network traffic to the server, you can also implement the validation client in your page - for example by using the regular expression validator.

  • Best practices for color use in Adobe CC?

    Hi all

    Is there an article that describes the best practices for use of color in Adobe CC?

    I produce a mixture of viewing online (PDF, for the most part) and real world print projects - often with the obligation for both. I recently updated my PANTONE + bridge books for the first time in ages and I am suddenly confused by the use of Lab colors in the Adobe Suite (Illustrator and InDesign).

    Everything I found online, looks like Lab color mode preferred to use because it is device independent. And perceptual (on screen), it looks much closer to the color, it is trying to represent. But when I mark a Spot color Illustrator rectangle using laboratory coordinates, to the sides of a rectangle using PANTONE + bridge CP and then export it to PDF, the version of CP to mix CMYK color corresponds exactly to my Pantone book - while the version of laboratory (after converted to CMYK using the ink Manager) is far away.

    I have this fantasy to manage only a single Illustrator or InDesign file for both worlds (PDF) printed and online. Is not possible in practice?

    Any info describing the basic definitions of the color modes - or even a book tracing more than use them in the real world - would be much appreciated!

    Thank you

    Bob

    Here are a few best practices you can already do.

    1 make sure that your color settings are synchronized on all applications.

    2. use a CMYK profile appropriate for your print output. Lab spot colors convert to CMYK values based on the CMYK icc profile.

    3. include icc profiles when save or export pdf files

    In theory, your imagination is possible today. It requires color management and the use of icc profiles. You can place RGB images in InDesign and use Pantone colors in your objects. The problem lies in the printers. If a printer uses a RIP with built in Pantone library, the colors will match when printing. Unfortunately, this kind of CUT is more expensive and not enough printers use them. Most of them is always manually approximate CMYK values composition given Pantone colors.

  • Best practices for managing exceptions and success messages.

    Hey people,

    These days I've been shooting packages to clean my application. And question came to my mind, ' should I treat my exceptions the right way?


    So I want to ask you met guys, what is the best practice for this? (I want to learn it until it's too late )

    Currently I have a function that returns "OK" if all goes well.


    return('OK');  

    Can I manage my exceptions like this

      EXCEPTION
        WHEN OTHERS THEN
          ROLLBACK;
          RETURN (SQLERRM);
    
    

    At THE SUMMIT, I have a process that calls the function and then checks if the function returned "OK".

         IF cRet not LIKE 'OK%' THEN
          RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-20000,cRet);
         END IF;
    
    

    And in 'process Error Message' I put "#SQLERRM_TEXT #" so that I can see what error occurred.

    Question aside, how do you manage your messages of success?

    Currently in 'process success Message' put something along the lines "Action completed successfully". What to do about all the processes.

    Do you want to do differently?

    I really want to hear what you have to say since I'm tired of feeling like this is a terrible way to manage these things.

    Hi Para,

    Para wrote:

    I don't know of situations where my service throw exceptions like no_data_found.

    and I need to know that the process is not so I can get to see my # #SQLERRM_TEXT.

    I got this by increasing the error in the application (which I think is a bad way to go) if the return is anything other than 'OK '. I get my application error in the process of the apex, and not in my service.
    And I want to show the inline error in the notification. (Which I am currently with my approach).

    You can use APEX_ERROR. ADD_ERROR in your PL/SQL process to throw exceptions in Oracle APEX.

  • What are the best practices for creating only time data types, and not the Date

    Hi gurus,

    We use 12 c DB and we have a requirement to create the column with datatype of time only, if someone please describe what are the best practices for the creation of this.

    I would strongly appreciate ideas and suggestions.

    Kind regards
    Ranjan

    Hello

    How do you intend to use the time?

    If you are going to combine with DATEs or timestamps from a other source, then an INTERVAL DAY TO SECOND or NUMBER may be better.

    Will you need to perform arithmetic operations on time, for example, increase the time to 20%, or take an average?   If so, the NUMBER would be preferable.

    You are just going to display it?  In this case, DAY INTERVAL in SECONDS, DATE or VARCHAR2 would work.

    As Blushadow said, it depends.

  • What are the best practices for a new employee to learn inside the instance of their business of Eloqua as efficiently as possible?

    We have companies everything changed at some point in our lives. And we all go through the process in the first weeks, where you feel new and are just trying to figure out how not to get lost on your way in the mornings.

    On top of that, trying to familiarize yourself with your new company Eloqua instance can be a daunting task, especially if it's a large organization.

    What are the best practices for new employees to learn as efficiently and effectively as possible?

    I am in this situation right now. Moved to a much larger organization. It is a huge task trying to understand all the ins and outs not only society, but also of the eloqua instance, especially when she is complex with many points of integration. I find that most of the learning happens when I really go do the work. I spent a ton of time going through the programs, documentation, integrations, etc., but after awhile, it's all just words on a page and not absorbed.

    The biggest thing that I recommend is to learn how and why things are made the way they are currently, ask lots of questions, don't assume not that things work the same as they did with your previous employer.

    Download some base in place level benchmarks to demonstrate additional improvement.

    Make a list of tasks in the long term. As a new pair of eyes, make a list of things you'd like to improve.

    Thank you

    I agree with Scott's response '' it depends. '' It starts with the appropriate choice of a web listening port.

    You should discourage use EPG facility based in Production environments in accordance with the recommendation of the Oracle.

    Reference: See security considerations when you use the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway section.

    ADR (APEX Listener) + Oracle Weblogic Server sounds good, if you already have tried and have appropriate expertise to manage it.

    Also, you might consider what other facilities ADR based ADR + Apache Tomcat with Apache HTTP Server reverse proxy as described here:

    For landing pages, you can use a bit of HTML, CSS, and Javascript like on any other page. For example, we use the Bootstrap on a couple of our Eloqua landing pages.

    Support for HTML and CSS is much more limited. It is one of the best resources I've seen for CSS support:
