Cannot increase the reserve memory beyond 256 MB

I have an unusual problem with a cluster ESX3.5 VC2.5 DRS/HA. I have a total of 6 guests so far with 12 GB each. I have only 5 VMs and I can't pay for the reservation of memory on any of them beyond 256 MB. I tried a variety of configurations, including the making of HA and DRS for the cluster so that to create a new cluster. I also tried to use a resource pool. I get the same results. I put a pool of resources, subject memory 10 GB and put a single guest in it. I can't always go more than 256 MB on this prompt. If I check the allocation of resources of comments, the 'other resources' marker shows 256MB and I am unable to change it.

There is only one scenario that seems to work and it is a host outside of a cluster. I can put a higher reserve, but if I then migrates the guest in the cluster, it resets to 256 MB.

This ROM of affect, reservations CPU work very well.

I'm running out of ideas and I can't live with this limitation. Can anyone help?

available memory cannot be changed that with the computer virtual powered down - have you tried?

  • Increase the video memory of the A40-211

    Hi all

    I have the Satellite A40-211. The Intel chipset also supports all of the graphical stuff, so he needs a little more memory RAM as video memory. This is possible up to a maximum of 64 MB. The problem is that the chipset is now using a maximum of 16 MB of video memory, but I want to expand this to 64 MB.

    Where can I find the settings for this in Windows XP Home Edition?

    Thanks for all the help!

    Hi, it s not possible to increase the video memory yourself!

    Let me tell you that your laptop is a dynamic memory management

    Your computer system reserved graphic only as much memory as it needs to accomplish all tasks running on your A40.

    .. dynamic video sharing .This is not bad, as I think!

    More info on your graphics chip basic find on pages of Intel.

    (Excuse my English, I use a translator)

    This old laptop has a graphics card with shared memory. In other words, when you have more RAM inside more memory will be used for graphical operations. According to the specifications of the laptop this old notebook was shipped with 128 MB of RAM, but can be improved up to 512 MB.

    pls help me! I have this laptop, and I want to increase the video memory from 8 MB to 128 MB, because for the moment its share only 8 MB. How to do this?
    I am grateful for!

    Hello

    the machine cannot tell what size memory it should use. He has the ability to use 128 MB. But he will not use memory that is really necessary. So if you don't play games 3D or something like that, you don't need as much memory video.

  • How to increase the video memory on Portege Z830 - 11 M?

    Hello!

    I have a Toshiba Portege Z830 - 11M. I want to increase the video memory.
    I don't know if it's possible and how to do it. I tried to open the bios by pressing the F2 key (as in the product specifications, I received with my laptop) and I arrived at the Toshiba help settings. The ESC and F1 keys open the Windows startup settings. If anyone can help me, please advice.

    Thank you very much.

    Hi Mishal

    In general the Portégé Z830 - 11 M is designed to escort us in usual daily activities such as sending mail, Office Automation and communication internet and feature thin and lightweight design allows us to take it anywhere.

    Hardware configuration has limited the performance of course, but at the same time offer excellent multitasking and long battery life. As far as I know on this machine you will not find any option to increase the performance of the GPU and everything that it works automatically.

    According to some feedback non demanding games should be playable with this graphics card too.
    I can't imagine that you want to play games with this machine so I would like to know what it is to ask about the graphics performance more.

    Hello just curious if anyone knows how I can increase the video memory on my new yoga 900. I looked at the bios screen, and I don't see an option to change it. Thanks in advance.

    Good day and welcome to the community.

    The amount of memory used by the integrated video controller depends on the total system memory, and is controlled system (vs user).

    Hope this helps to clarify.

    Can anyone help? I looked in the Bios and the advanced settings screen, and found nothing to increase the size of the video memory.

    Hello

    As far as I know that the unit has been delivered with the NVidia GeForce4 420Go 32 MB graphics card. This isn't a memory sheared graphics card.
    The card supports the own memory and not a function of memory sheared.
    In this case, you cannot change the value of memory.

    Hello

    Are you sure that your graphics card for laptop supports shared memory?
    AFAIK the A100-750 was delivered with a nVIDIA GeForce FX Go7300 and this card supports own video memory of 64 MB. This isn't shared, memory and so you cannot increase this memory of graphics card on a higher value.

    In this case the graphics card uses the own memory, and the laptop need not share main memory with the graphics card.

    Hello

    Shared graphics memory is controlled by GPU driver. You cannot add or edit it manually.

    More depends on the Windows OS you use, because the 32-bit system can manage max 3.2 GB of system memory.

    For example:

    * (32 bit OS) *.
    System memory: 2GB | 4 GB
    Dedicated video memory: 128 MB | 128 MB
    Shared system memory: 702MB | 1214 MB
    TOTAL available graphics memory: 830MB | 1342 MB

    * (64 bit OS) *.
    System memory: 2GB | 4 GB
    Dedicated video memory: 128 MB | 128 MB
    Shared system memory: 702MB | 1631 MB
    TOTAL available graphics memory: 830MB | 1759 MB

    Hope I could help you

  • Satellite A200 - how to increase the graphics memory?

    Hi, another question.

    I am unsing an A200-1CC, it's an Intel 945 Express Chipset Family settled. I tried to install a game that requires memory graph 256Motets. I received an error message "Shadow Pixel 1.1" maybe not supproted... and the page the maanufactured FAQ told me be sure to habe 256 MB in use.

    The A200-1CC has a 1024 MB of RAM and uses only a little over 100 MB memory graphics. I have check the Intel web page. My 945 Chipset supports Pixel of the shadow; and memory maximum grpahics used in 256 MB. So I increased my mother-2048 MB memory card today. However; It shows still 122 MB graphics memory in use. Page intel says that sometimes you can adjust the DMTV in bios, but that does not apply to my system.

    Any chance to get used to 256 MB graphics memory? -I use a Vista system...?

    Thanks in advance for any idea you may have.

    ;-) Ingo

    Hello!

    No, you can increase the video RAM and there is no option to change this.
    The video RAM will be assigned automatically, but you can t change that.

    I know this good news of aren t but in my opinion the Intel graphic card is not designed for games. An nVidia or ATI card graphics would be a better solution for the game.
