Crescent of cpu and memory under windows 2003

Hello

I have a windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 virtual machine with 1 cpu and 4 GB of memory.

Can I increase cpu 1 to 4

In the past, I've increased cpu 2 to 4 on similar without any problem, but not sure machines ranging from 1 to 4 cpu

In the past, take action:

Turn off the virtual machine

Take snpshot

increase the number of cpu 2 to 4

increase of 2 to 4 GB memory

Start the virtual machine

Check Device Manager to make sure that the additional processors are visible

Check the additional memory is visible

Remove the snapshot

Instant return if the process fails

What also vmware WARNING "change the number of CPUs after the guest OS was isntalled can make your virtual machine unstable."

Thank you

Hello

I did this operation, hundreds of times, no problems at all. Problem may occur when you reduce several CPU single-processor. Going from simple to several CPU no problem at all. Of course good to have a clone\snapsot of virtual machine before you make any change :-)

  • Window Media Player.exe using 100% of CPU and memory

    I have a Pavilion dv4-2145-dx Windows 7 Ultimate SP1, 4 GB of memory. Windows Media Player.exe supports my CPU 100% usage and it is striking all my memory - 4 GB.   It started right after I set up a homegroup.

    I had to go into Admin/service and change the Startup Type to disabled for:

    • Windows Media Center Receiver Service
    • The window media services planning service
    • Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service

    I tried setting services to manual, but Windows Media Player has yet caught all the CPU and memory, he could then I disabled all the.

    I do not know how to disable homegroup and Windows Media Player services work together so I wonder if everything is always operate has designed with the homegroup and sharing my music.

    Hello

    I think this explains the problem.  The 2 entries here should be deleted, because the first will try to index all of your user profile and the second will attempt to index all of the Windows Partition.

    C:\Users\Rick

    C:\

    To remove them, click to the left of the entrance, highlight it, and then click Remove.  When these two entries have been removed, reboot the laptop and you should find that the problem has been resolved.

  • -Plug hot CPU and memory

    Hello.

    I'll try the new features of vSphere and have a double with the addition of a CPU or memory to a virtual machine while it is running.

    First of all, Microsoft said that only the data center itanium editions and supports the addition of hot CPU, but I found some forums who say they did the test with other editions as standard or enterprice, is this posible?

    http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/us/R2-compare-specs.aspx

    http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/evaluation/features/comparefeatures.mspx

    I tried with a windows server 2008 standard x 64 and when I added a CPU Device Manager shows me 2 CPUs, but the Task Manager doesn't show one and when I added to that memory, the Task Manager shows no change, but Device Manager shows the new memory module with an alert.

    When I restart the virtual machine to the new hardware configuration worked well.

    If windows does not support hot branch of CPU and memory in the data center and itanium editions, why is the option available (when we edit a virtual machine) for other editions as standard?

    Thank you...

    Here is a good list which has been implemented and seems to be fairly well validated.  But the result is, it has windows and a restart could never hurt.

  • Free version of 5.5 (CPU and memory limits)

    Hello

    Is there a limit CPU and memory if I run the free version of 5.5?  I remember that there is a limitation of a socket (CPU), but am not sure, maybe it was the old version.

    Thanks in advance.

    TT

    If I'm mistaken, the only limitation with the free 5.5 ESXi hypervisor is the 8 vCPU maximum of VMS and the restrictions for hardware virtual version 9 (5.1 compatibility) with the vSphere Client. Previous versions had all kinds of different limitations, like carrots by socket, physical memory,..., but that all left with the current version.

  • Settings of CPU and memory of reserve on the virtual machine running...

    Hello.

    I have two virtual machines in production with CPU and memory settings of reservation applied as shown below. I want to adjust these settings of reservation to "zero" for the CPU and memory on both virtual machines.

    I can make these adjustments while VMS are running, or do I need to power their first?

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

  • material high interrupt CPU under Windows 2003

    Hi guys,.

    I have several virtual machines running windows 2003 and citrix presentation server 4.5 and I experience interruptions of cpu high on the virtual machine as 30 to 40% of the time cpu, so if the CPU is busy for 20%, it is almost 20% compared to that of the downtime.

    I created a new virtual machine from scratch, tried more vcpus, cloned a physics (I know that this is what may cause, but just to test) and several other things.

    The performance is very erratic, sometimes the graphic bellow is completely red. It must be a problem with a planner to UC or something. Could you guys please give me some advice? Thank you!

    Capture.JPG

    CPU usage increases when a system process requires more time or when several network packets are sent and received. The CPU becomes too busy when the CPU receives too many packets of the switch hardware or when a system process consumes too much time CPU. When one of these functions is using CPU resources, then it will be at the expense of the other, because the CPU is too busy.  For example, if the CPU gets number of packets due to a storm of broadcasting on the network, it is so busy processing all the packages that the other processes in the system do not have access to the resources of the processor.

    Just check if the CPU is busy processing network packets.

  • install ESXi on an existing machine under windows 2003

    Hi all

    I'm new to VMware and I just installed ESXi on a machine with server 2003 installed. My questions are:

    1: can I still access my windows 2003 server, bypassing the connection of ESXi? If so, how? If not, it means that after I had installed ESXi on this machine, Server 2003 is removed.

    2: How do I reinstall the ESXi on this machine?

    I converted two of my physical servers into virtual machines using the converter. And my questions are:

    1: after you import the virtual machine, I deleted it from the VMware client. This particular virtual machine is no longer visible but still displays taking up resources such as HDD, CPU, RAM etc. How to release my resources?

    2:i have two network cards in the physical server, and when I've converted and brought it into a VMware customer, everything is ok except the network cards. They show that some cards AMD NIC. I'm not able to use network cards. And I already tried to convert twice i just cases that something went wrong with conversion. but the problem remains.

    Thank you.

    AG

    As the other poster mentioned, (ESXi and ESX) are installed bare metal - they install their operating systems, so I think your Win2k3 installation is missing if you have it installed on the same disk.

    When you removed the VM you remove disk or delete forminventory - if you have removed the inventory and it was running, it will still resources - for the correction of network cards virtual you need to install VMware tools - this will load the appropriate virtual machine drivers and it will improve your performance - up to this virtual material of your virtual machine will be identified as a physical hardware as the AMD PCnet Ethernet controller-

  • Message box blackBerry 10 bottom Z10 with cpu and memory info.

    I noticed a message box at the bottom of the screen that has info on the device such as the States of C CPU power and memory info. It doesn't go away with a traction battery, or soft reboot. I've never seen anything like this in the forums before... anyone know what it is? I have attached a picture.

    OS - 10.3.1.634

    STL 100-4 on Verizon

    Use the Web when it first appeared.

    Thanks for the responses... I reload the os when I'm home.

    It is a diagnostic screen that appears in the earliest versions of development of an operating system.  It is an overlay and does not appear in the screenshots.

    You need a much more recent version 10.3.1.  a version of 900 or higher got rid of this screen for good.

    Make a diagonal cut on your battery icon in the upper left corner.  It will be a chart after forcing the screen to refresh by dragging a page more.  Drag the icon of the battery again, and it should disappear completely with an another refresh of the screen.

    Every time the battery will scroll the display of text-box/graph-box/nothing in this diagnostic box.

    It is possible that I got the wrong order, so it could disappear after one kick and then come back with the chart area first coup, so just keep at home.

    But, again, just get 10.3.1.2744 if you do not want to go to 10.3.2 immediately.  You obviouly know how to use an automatic charger since you could not get 10.3.1.634 on your phone otherwise - that the operating system has never been a release of the carrier and was leaking to all about September or October of last year.
