How aliviate high CPU on a virtual computer

Hello

Not sure how to phrase my question, but I have a virtual machine with 1 vCPU and 4 GB of vRAM.

I put an alert custom to be alerted with warning of 90% and 95% cpu.

This virtual machine between 08:30 09:00 up to 300 Mhz, 100 percent of the CPU.

What are your thoughts on how to aliviate that spike?

My goal is to have everything what it green on my virtual environment

Also, I am to evaluate vCOPS. See screenshot of vCOPS and vCenter.

Thanks for your help

This makes more sense - I always suggest getting a better understanding of what this machine is running workload and what happens at this time here? Other machines demonstrate this behavior and it they take a look at their respective times ready to see if there is a conflict of cycles host CPU. Is it an impact on application performance or the user experience - if it is you could conider adding a second vcpu.

  • Can I migrate a virtual computer to a new family of CPU? -Cisco Call Manager PUB/SUB

    I currently have 2 host VMware ESXi 4.1:

    1. Dell PER905 - running 16 x 2.39 GHz (core) CPU / Quad-Core AMD Opteron (tm) Processor 8378 (processor type)

    2 cisco UCS C260 M2 (BASE-2646) - running 20 x 2,393 GHz (core) CPU / Intel (R) Xeon (R) CPU E72870 (processor type)


    The main objective is to move 2 VM of the Dell host to the host of Cisco, the reason is because Cisco Support said that the virtual machine requires an Intel and not AMD they are currently.  I currently have a Publisher Cisco Call Manager and Call Manager subscriber residing on the host of Dell, they are constructed (non - OVF) on this machine some time ago.  We started to have problems with them and ultimately Cisco indicated above.


    A few questions come to mind, can someone please shed some light on them for me?

    1. can I migrate these 2 AMD to Intel VM, without her damage/destruction of the virtual machine?  What that is the answer may be, can you explain to me the why?  The answer to the migration of the CPU is dependent on the guest OS or what?  I ask because I did this successfully on a Windows Guest OS virtual machine, but I guess it is that Cisco makes me hesitate/question.

    2 would it not be better to each virtual machine rebuilt on the new host, rather than through migration for the purposes of the CPU?

    3. What is the recommended method to endorse these VM, before proceeding with the migration?  I'm not talking about save data in the call manager for reasons that I will perform a backup it first.  I ask more along the lines of - for the love of the virtual machine itself.

    You should be able to perform a cold migration. The concern is the guest operating system level.  The Cisco device is probably a Linux distro.  The distribution must use the AMD64 instruction set (Intel 64 compatible) and theoretically should migrate fine.  However, if the guest what OS was improved the AMD CPU instructions, he can expect these features when you restart.  We have at least a virtual computer in our environment that we need to stick to a certain family of Intel processor because the software license dig and binds to it, but this is the only scenario that I have met.

    2 would it not be better to each virtual machine rebuilt on the new host, rather than through migration for the purposes of the CPU?

    I feel better on the redeployment, but if the migration is successful and applications run stable, then you reaped just the benefits of virtualization.

    3. What is the recommended method to endorse these VM, before proceeding with the migration?  I'm not talking about save data in the call manager for reasons that I will perform a backup it first.  I ask more along the lines of - for the love of the virtual machine itself.

    You could do something as simple as the cloning of a copy.  Depending on how you are approved for vSphere, you can have the POS to back up your virtual machine.  You can also use a tool such as VMWare Converter or Veeam Backup and replication. Given the importance of these virtual machines, I would get at least 2 backups of different type.  You should be able to validate any backup with VMWare Workstation prior to migration.

  • How would recreate the pagefile to a Windows 2008 virtual computer running on a host ESX 3i?

    As the subject says, I'm looking for a way to do this.  I inherited the environment of another group and it is very small, but it performs ESX 3i on the two hosts and Vcenter version 2.5 (Infrastructure) is a bit old.  5 of 6 VM are operational, however, the 6th when turned on will not get 40% full, but then it will fail to stating that is not a swap file.  Now, normally it is not a swap file, because they are created or deleted dynamically whenever a virtual computer is powered on one of the hosts.  It's quite strange.

    In the new versions / environments, there seem to be ways to recreate exchange capacity easily, but which doesn't seem to be the case here.  I don't think it's a process lock as the two hosts have restarted to clear HA agent / editions of the resource.  My guess is this has happened has been one of the hosts could not reproduce any more process for some reason any and when the VM problem has been powered down to try to erase some, the problem occurred.  Either that, or there are unreadable sectors in the data store, and perforated in this swap file black...

    I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to solve the problem.  Any input would be welcome.

    Thank you!

    All,

    Thanks for the suggestions, but I solved the problem.  What needed to be done was to remove the virtual machine of the inventory and then re-create it as a new virtual machine under the cluster of the same name, same settings and have it use its 2 existing virtual disks.  For some stupid reason, once this is done, he managed to turn on normally and now runs without problem.

    I'm not necessarily happy that this solution because it does not really help understand me what underlying the problem actually was, but I guess I can live with that.  The reason why I have not tried it earlier, is that I was afraid the vmdk would be replaced and I wanted to keep the existing information.  However, someone I work with was certain that they had done before, and that she maintained the pre-existing data, even in this older version, so I finally tried.

    in any case, thanks for the support, and if someone can glean some root causes of the problem based on the solution I have just given, that would be helpful.

  • How can I access my Microsoft Virtual PC on an external hard drive with Windows Virtual PC on my new computer?

    For a few years, I have been using a set of VPC on external hard drives (.vmc files both .vhd located on external drives) with the Microsoft Virtual PC/Virtual PC Console on a Windows XP computer. They worked perfectly.

    However, I just bought a new computer with Windows 7, and I'm unable to access the VPC on the external hard drive. I installed successfully, Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode on the computer, and I copied the file to the host machine's .vmc. However, when I try to open the virtual computer, I get a message saying that the VPC was "impossible to write in one of its virtual hard disks.

    I've tried everything I can think of, but the only thing that works is to copy the .vmc and .vhd in the computer file. The problem is that I use the VPC for training online, and I have 16 of them. If I copy everything in the computer, I will use all 500 GB of disk space.

    There must be a way to access the VPC for external drives. If I can do it on the old XP computer, it should be possible to do it on the new Windows 7 computer.

    Help, please.

  • How to make a virtual computer to connect to a CD player with an ISO mounted when you start the virtual machine?

    I am the creation of virtual machines using PowerCLI 5.5 on vSphere 5.0; and while the virtual machine is turned off, I am able to mount an ISO on a CD player and change the boot order to boot from the CD-ROM (for another post).  I have the flag startConnected set to true, but am not having much luck getting the virtual machine to connect to the CDDrive

    $cdObj = $Vm | New-CDDrive - IsoPath $isoPathName - StartConnected: $true

    If ($cdObj - no $null)
    {
    #Power off VM if it is on
    $VmState = $Vm.PowerState

    If ($VmState - eq "Receptor")
    {
    $Vm | Stop-Vm-confirm: $false - ea 0
    }

    $BootHardDiskName = 'disk 1 '.
    $VmView = get - VM $VmName - Server $serverObj.Name | Get-View
    $HardDiskDeviceKey = ($VmView.Config.Hardware.Device |) Where-Object {$_.} DeviceInfo.Label - eq $BootHardDiskName}). Key

    $BootableHardDisk = new-Object - TypeName VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineBootOptionsBootableDiskDevice - property @{'DeviceKey' = $HardDiskDeviceKey}
    $BootableCDRom = new-Object-Type VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineBootOptionsBootableCdromDevice

    #Set for CDRom boot order
    $BootIso = new-Object VMware.Vim .VirtualMachineConfigSpec - property @ {}
    "BootOptions' = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineBootOptions - property @ {}
    BootOrder = $BootableCDRom
    }
    }

    #Set VM from the start settings at the start of the first CD and forces the display to update (sometimes delayed)
    $VmView.ReconfigVM_Task ($BootIso) | out-null
    $VmView.UpdateViewData ("Config.BootOptions.BootOrder")

    #Power on VM
    $Vm | Start-VM-confirm: $false - ea - global 0EV: vmOpsError | out-null

    When I start the VM, it does start the ISO.

    If I go to vCenter, the CD is pointing to the ISO file, but the 'Connected' to change settings option is not checked;  I can restart the VM of vCenter and then the VM restarts the ISO, but not in the script.

    I even put code to add a lead time of 5 to 10 seconds; I restart the virtual machine twice in the script and I can't CD to connect to start the virtual computer.

    Appreciate any suggestions.

  • vSphere API - how to determine if a virtual computer is storage vMotioned?

    Thank you

    P.

    I think the best way would be to check the list of disabledMethod for the virtual machine.

    Each managed object VirtualMachine (http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/topic/com.vmware.wssdk.apiref.doc_50/vim.VirtualMachine.html) has a property disabledMethods (http://pubs.vmware.com/vsphere-50/topic/com.vmware.wssdk.apiref.doc_50/vim.ManagedEntity.html#disabledMethod).  You can check this property to ensure that the MigrateVM_Task method is not disabled (you may need to check a few methods be sure - you should see what it disabled when its being svmotioned).  If the relevant methods are not disabled, you can be confident this isn't in vmotioned.

    The other option would be to get the current list of events in VC, filtered by the name of the Virtual Machine and ensure that none of them have migration tasks in the process.

  • How to restore a virtual computer to another computer using Backup Exec virtual

    Hi all

    I tested VMware 3.5.  We have little budget, so we intend to convert 5-10 dev servers into virtual machine running on an existing ML570 HP.  I created a test VM; I could back up and restore the entire virtual machine using Backup Exec to a physical server without problem.  However I can not restore a virtual machine to a different VM.  Let's say I dv01; I backed up using Backup Exec dv01 on the physical server.  Pretending the host has no I have rebuilt a new host, created a new virtual machine with the same name dv01 and same features.  I restored dv01 from the backup.  The restoration is properly; However, he got a blue screen when I rebooted the virtual computer.  The blue screen went so big that I don't remember what it was, but it's the kind of a dll error.

    We want to keep the budget as small as possible using our existing Backup Exec agents, but it doesn't seem to work here.  Is Backup Exec for VMware agent a MUST?  Catering to the same VM is good, but restore to a different VM is not so simple.

    THX.

    As you can see in http://www.vmware.com/products/vi/buy.html, VCB is included in all editions of VI 3.5.

  • Cannot modify memory and CPU of the parameters on a virtual computer running - vSphere 4

    After a new installation of vSphere 4, I created several virtual machines and P2V had a couple as well.  DRS and HA was set up, and everything worked well.  If I understand correctly, I should be able to change the settings of RAM and the processor to a virtual computer running, but they are greyed out as with previous versions.  I can change them if the virtual machine is shut down.  No idea why this?

    Thank you!

    1 VM should be version 7 of material.

    2. you must set the "Allow memory hot add" powered off mode.

    Only after this, you can add memory to the virtual machine performance. Also, don't forget that Windows 2003 and 2008, Enterprise Edition and Datacenter Edition support this.
