Can I force it to use more vMemory and less vCPU in a virtual machine?

Hello guys,.

I have a virtual machine that uses vCPU more than a vMemory, when I select the Task Manager, I noticed that the memory is less than 5% and the cpu is greater than 50% when no application is running when the application run the vcpu go high and the vmem remains low. If there is any way to force it to use more vmemory and less vcpu in a virtual machine? can I use the list of resources for this?

Thank you

No, you can not force the VM to use more memory and less CPU. In fact you can force the VM to use less CPU by limiting the use of the processor, but it will affect performance. The only thing you can do with forcing more use - is to guarantee the physical resources for VM (reserve), but if the virtual machine has no more physical memory or CPU it don't use them.

  • No advantage to using more of a kernel on a custom virtual machine?

    I think that the answer to this question has been, it is that there no advantage to use more database, even on a multi core system (I have a quad core AMD).

    When you create a VM client.  But this has been discussed in WS 6.x I think.  No advantage to 8 WS?

  • How to use an iso of media store in a virtual machine?

    I know this is a stupid question, but I can't understand how to use an iso of media store in a virtual machine in a laboratory Manager configuration. I copied on an ISO in my store of media NFS and its all synced to the top and available to use. But what I want to know is, is there a way we can map the iso in a virtual machine in the config of lab manager and make it look like cd?

    Pls advice.

    just a couple first checks:

    1. the ISO standard appear in the media section of the organization who needs to use it.

    2. the NFS store is accessible by all esx hosts used in this organization

    3. go to the page of the console for the virtual machine that needs to use it.

    4 right-click the VM name to get the full menu

    5. Insert the CD

    6. choose the ISO from the menu drop down.

    All this is in the user manual.

  • URG: How can I force APEX to use the specific schema: spaces of work APEX_040100 or entitled to another schema?

    Hi all

    Here's the scenario:

    1. My computer crashed. were to return to complete export (expdp 11.2.x to impdp 12 c). successfully done.
    2. Configured ADR blah blah... can access the admin of the apex.
    3. Problem is: administration interface does not SEE my workspaces apex Apex (only the workspace IN-HOUSE).
    4. After investigation it seems that APEX (after the upgrade) is somehow configured / run with: schema APEX_040200 and not

    APEX_040100 (as I have improved Apex in the old database versions).


    5. If I'm running the following:

    ALTER session set current_schema = APEX_040100;

    Select short_name, display_name

    of wwv_flow_companies

    where source_identifier is not null;


    I SEE all my beloved workspaces.

    6 my questions:

    a. How can I force APEX to use the specific schema: APEX_040100 instead of APEX_040200?

    b. or are there other alternatives to assign these workspaces in the current environment?

    Hello Brad,

    Thank you for your response. Appreciated.

    • Yet, as I had a little corrupted environment Apex after import (impdp), COMPREHENSIVE database this method of revocation (above) has failed several times to me.
    • Here's what I have (solves the problem):
    • Deleted APEX_040200 Apex 4.2 installation().
    • Text left in DB is the only APEX_040100
    • Then, the version 5.0.3 and it worked!

    More importantly, after the installation of APEX, all workspaces, users, etc. are automatically correctly resided in APEX.
    • I think that if you have only 1 version of apex corrupted in DB. It should work as well. Remove again, schema using the above script (check version) with caution (after backup, etc.).

    Kind regards

  • I have a 6 s with Verizon iPhone. Can I send/receive calls (using this service and calls on other devices functionality) on my iPhone 5s, who was with AT & T service, but has no service now since I switched to Verizon?

    I have a 6 s with Verizon iPhone. Can I send/receive calls (using this service and calls on other devices functionality) on my iPhone 5s, who was with AT & T service, but has no service now since I switched to Verizon?

    Note: I'm able to get two phones to ring with an incoming call, but the 5s consist not out. Whenever I dial a number, it says call failed.

    Do not dial a number. Try to choose a contact in the contacts App and tapping on telephone button.

    That said, I don't think that outgoing calls work on continuity since another iPhone. given that the iphone is designed to make calls through its own service.

    Document to support that you just did not mention calls from a secondary iPhone at all, it points to Mac, iPad and iPod touch, which leads me to believe that it won't work.

    It runs from devices such as iPads and Macs, who have no other way to place a cell call.

    before 3 years, I bought a win 7 pro PC - recently, I fee install 8.1... How to download and use my prior Win 7 Pro in a Virtual Machine in VMWARE PLAYER?

    Unfortunately, you must have prepared a recovery disk in advance or use the one provided with your computer.

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 a Premium: How can I preset the trays used for printing and copying?

    I love this machine except for one thing. It takes the paper for printing from the lower drawer. So I used the top plate for single supply of envelopes. Then I'm going to copy something and it makes me put the paper in the upper tray, when the lower plate is full!

    How can I determine if just use paper in the lower tray for copying too?

    Hello

    You should change the copy settings to use the 2nd tray, then you can set it as default:

    1. Click the copy on the front panel of the printer.
    2. Click settings.
    3. Click Select status bar , and then select tray 2.

    You can set the default tray by selecting set as new defaults in the settings menu even.

  • Can I upgrade to Windows 7 and keep Vista in a virtual machine environment or a dual boot?

    I use Vista Home Premium and I want to upgrade to windows 7. I love Vista and do not want to abandon it. After the upgrade I can install Vista (same drive, same NR) in a virtual machine in tha same computer.

    N ° if this Vista product key has been used to make the upgrade to Windows7, she is technically still in use and can not be installed on any computer (or even the same machine in VM).  You must either complete a version of installation of Window7 - and you must change the product key or do a clean install (so it no longer an upgrade that will release the Vista product) or you need a copy of the complete installation of Vista with its own product key.

    Sorry if this isn't what you wanted to hear, but it's like that.

  • Using PCD to migrate from VM to a virtual machine already deployed

    Hello

    I need to expand a cluster of 2,000 users to a cluster of 7,500 users. I tried to do that by deploying the DRS, but I wasn't able to do because the DRS estates the security password is different from the backup. I have an open case of TAC to investigate it, maybe the problem is the password @character.

    So I wonder if I can use PCD to transfer data from the small bunch for the big one to overcome the Drs I run a lab to do that however PCD me does not use a virtual machine already deployed as the destination of migration. Is there a way to get around this? The big problem is I have no permission to deploy a new virtual machine in VMware infrastructure, but I can ask the priming of a simple installation of CUCM to allow me to migrate data from the old cluster to the new VMWare.

    Kind regards

    Alberto

    Hello Alberto,.

    First of all you must always mention both cucm and other important info while posting something on the community, given that the procedures for various things change with different versions. Yes, with DRS backup and restore only the security password must be known, if not, that it will fail. If the cluster is still in place and launched, you can easily change the security password using the procedure mentioned in the following link and then take a backup of the DRS and use it on a freshly built with a similar version cluster

    http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/TD/docs/voice_ip_comm/CUCM/Cucos/8_6_1/Cuco...

    With PCD you must follow the steps mentioned in the PCD administration guide, basically you will build a virtual machine and then allow PCD migrate existing data to the new cluster. However, check the compatibility of the versions and other factors listed in the guide of PCD

  • Can [RESOLVED] I install the windows 7 provided with my laptop on a virtual machine?

    I bought a laptop.  This purchase price includes an operating system (Windows 7 Home Premium) I want to use it on a virtual machine instead of on the physical machine.  The host operating system is different.

    It seems impossible to install this OS on virtual machine; I get errors with the activation key.  Here are the things I've tried:

    Create an image of the original hard drive (before it was started), then tried to start the
    Downloaded the ISO of Windows 7 Home Premium digital river and tried to use the activation key on the bottom of the laptop
    Iso boot and go into recovery mode on the original hard disk image

    None of them worked.

    If I have to buy another copy of Windows, can I at least get credit for one, that I never use that I paid for?

    You should be able to use it in a virtual machine, as long as you have another operating system (for example Linux) host.

Rather than use the software directly on the licensed computer, you can install and use the software within the single virtual (or emulated) system on the licensed computer.

    I'm trying to call vmscript allows you to execute commands on a virtual machine. Several applications can come to the computer virtual target (where the script is executed) from different sources. When I make a call at the same time, it works very well.

    However, when I make simultaneous calls to invoke vmscript to run a command on a remote computer, only one runs and others fail with the following error.

    You probably don't have enough permissions to execute the command in the comments.

    Even if the error mentions privileges, I'm sure that it is not only the privilege as it works if I run commans an establishment at the time.

    Assuming that invoke vmscript supports concurrency - y at - it target configurations I need to put on the virtual machine to allow the operation?

    As a bypass, you could use a try - construction of wrestling to synchronize different calls.
