Problem of memory with esxi 4

I have a brand new hp dl380 G6 with 2 xeon x 5560 server and 48 GB of ram ddr, it is used in combination with a fiber of msa 2212 hp san chanel.

The host runs 36 windows virtual xp with each 1vcpu and 512 MB memory.

given that we have upgraded to esxi 4 almost al my virtual machines are showing the alarm that the memory usage of comments is raw, some off them show same not the warning, but the symbol of the alarm.

In the virtual machine overview comments mem % varies between 90% and 68%.

The host mem is also high, always 537 MB.

The same takes place of issue with the version of virtual machine 4 and 7, vmwaretools is upgraded to version latsest, even with a new installation of a host appaers problem.

On the same host, we tested with esxi 3.5, we have not had any warning to all mem % comments has been between 2 and 18%

the host here for most memory less than 100 MB

Is that a question or there at - it something wrong with my setup?

Has anyone seen this problem too?

  • problem of memory with a single desktop computer in a pool

    Hello

    I have a user who is faced with problems of performance due to an error, "not enough virtual memory." I guess it's an indication that the office is exhausting its memory resources. That being said, I have about 200 other workstations are well-developed. I don't want to increase the amount of physical and virtual memory on the virtual computer parent as a means of remidying one of the problems of performance to users. can I safely increase memory just on this particular vm through the settings-> memory by using the vsphere client? other recommendations? any idea would be appreciated.

    Cheers.

    You can increase the memory of the way you specified, but remember that it will be by default when you refresh or redial this VM.

  • Need help with problems upgrade memory on Pavilion DM4

    I have a Pavilion DM4 1201us with original DDR3 2x2gb memory cards.

    I bought a pair of Corsair DDR3 1333 Mhz 4 GB memory cards.

    I have the latest BIOS (F.27) and I'm running the OEM Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - Bit. SP1.

    The BIOS recognizes the 8 Gb and when I run the BIOS memory test it runs without error.

    When I try to boot Win7, it gets somewhere before the logon screen and makes a BSOD with a message about a new memory being installed.

    I went back the Corsair Memory cards, but you need to know if there is a problem with any upgrade up to 8 GB of memory with my particular setup. HP offers an upgrade to 8 GB with the same spec boards. (I'm beyond the warranty period!)

    Any thoughtts?

    Interesting!

    I can tell you that the model only supports 8 GB memory: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02704310

    Have you tried more than one kit of 8 GB?

    The reason why I ask is with memory DDR sometimes reticular sticks will pass all the tests if the two sticks are installed then a stick could be bad without you knowledge.

    Also you tried a bar of 4 GB and a 2 GB stick to see how it worked?

  • Having problems with ESXi/vSphere Client Network

    First of all, I apologize if it's thread is in the wrong section.

    I recently installed ESXi v6.0.0 in VMware Workstation 12.0 trying to familiarize myself with ESXi as I recently graduated and I forgot most of what I learned from the class I took.

    Then, ESXi installed smoothly and was very painless.

    Then, I tried to create a virtual machine. It's when things are messy. I can't understand why, but I don't get any network connectivity after obtaining a DHCP address to all within the virtual machine, in addition to being able to ping the host ESXi itself.

    First of all, networking is like so:

    10.10.10.1 router/gateway

    10.10.10.254 DHCP, DNS, server, VMware Workstation files 12

    10.10.10.250 ESXi host

    10.10.10.244 ESXi reviews - Windows 7

    Googles DNS 8.8.8.8

    VMware workstation 12:

    AMD FX-8350

    Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network Connection

    NVIDIA Corporation GF119 [GeForce GT 520] (rev a1) - However, not allowed to work with VMware VMware or xvnc throws a fit to this topic

    ESXi host

    Images: 2015-10-04_21-13 - 57.png, 2015-10-04_21-14 - 34.png

    The vSwitch has the following properties:

    Image: 2015-10-04_21-19 - 38.png


    And the following then occurs on the ESXi prompt:

    Images:,2015-10-04_21-01 - 58.png, 2015-10-04_21-03 - 32.png


    I can't really understand what the problem is, or what is happening. Yes, I could set up an internal network of the virtual machine with a firewall and what not, but I was hoping that there would already network connectivity while I wouldn't do. Also, is it possible to make attachments online?


    Thanks for all their help

  • Network problems intermittent management with more than 1 works ESXi

    Hello

    I had problems since installation with our 2 x ESXi 5.5 nodes running on a Dell VRTX system.

    If I had to run 1 ESXi nodes on its own, it works perfectly, no problems what so ever, but as soon as I start the 2nd node they network for the management network connectivity problems.  However any virtual machine that you are running on them have no problem at all.

    The easiest way for me to check it comes to ping the management network and it will be on one of the nodes timeout, then it will randomly and knitting on this node but timeout on the other, they will never return a ping at the same time.


    If anyone has experienced this before? I fight to see if there is a problem with the installation on the ESXi hosts, the network Dell VRTX or our NetGear switch.

    I tried a lot of solutions and been through the different pages of VMware KB but can't seem to find something that suits him.

    The network Dell 8 physical ports are all in one LAG with 2 nodes added, I tried the distinct lag, but that made no difference, I am focusing now on if it is a parameter of VMware to see where that gets me.

    That's how the two nodes are configured.

    vmnet.JPG

    Solved!

    Finally, I spotted the problem, and VMware technical support fixed it for me.

    The MAC address of each management network was the same!, for some reason, the host of the 2nd got the MAC address of a NIC to host the premiere, don't know how its possible but VMware support restored all of the network settings from scratch and it picked up the correct MAC and works.

    Thank you all for your suggestions.

  • config of memory in esxi with a hyper-v virtual machine on.

    First of all, Thanks for the help.

    I set up a Home Lab with ESXi 5.1.
    J’ai several Linux machines. J’ai a virtual machine Windows Server 2012 Hyper -v.
    I would like to know what the optimal parameters in order to maximize the 32 GB of RAM to the virtual machine Windows. ()when I use this machine do not use any other ESXi virtual machine)
    J’ai not clear that if administered dynamically memory for this VM in ESXi when you manage Hyper v, dynamic Management of memory will be use all the RAM.

    Thank you for everything, I hope that I have explained.

    How much memory is your ESXi has? If you have not set up a special configuration for the virtual Windows machine, the ESXi Server uses the common techniques of overcommitment with the virtual machine. If you have more than 32 GB of RAM on your box of ESXi, you'll never overcommited (assuming that your other virtual machines are turned off). So the ESXi will give access to the physical to your Windows virtual machine memory as long as she asks for.

    You can also ensure the physical to the virtual machine by using reservations memory, if you want to.

  • DL360-G8 install on USB/SD with ESXi 5.5 - U2

    Hi people,

    This one is driving nuts me and I would appreciate the help.

    I'm building a new VMWare VSphere environment, or I would if I can pass the task first and simple installation of the ESXi hypervisor on the SD card or USB key.

    I bought a pair "diskless" of DL380G8 with 96 GB of memory.

    I downloaded the HP custom construction ESXI ISO VMware-ESXi-5.5.0-Update2-2068190-HP-5.76.36-Sep2014.iso and it burned to a bootable CD. Basically I've never passed the point of load setup beyond the GROUP where is reports "no place on the disk for the image data.

    I seem to be able to 'see' the SD card that is reported as present in the ILO

    I tried * and 16GB USB drives without result.

    Legacy (no AHCI) is set to SATA in the BIOS.

    Disks formatted in FAT32

    Any ideas?

    Thanks as always to advance...

    see you soon

    Graham

    Not sure if anyone cares, but the answer to that, is that there is a patch for some server (G8 configs) like mine.

    the patch is here:

    This seems to be a known issue. As we shall see, I linked an article below that describes the problem and resolution:

    ESXi Update 2 5.5 fails with the error purple diagnostic screen: IOMMUDoReportFault IOMMUProcessFaults (2090039)

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalID=2090039

    the best way to apply this was to download the patch to a data store and run via esxcli software install vib/vmfs/volumes/yourdatapathere/etc...

    Of course you must activate your SSH host in the console first...

    Thank you

  • There seems to be a MAJOR problem (blocking/memory leak) in "subject: House", also known as the Firefox Start Page, at 26.0 Firefox on Windows!

    There seems to be a MAJOR problem (blocking/memory leak) in "subject: House", also known as start up Firefox, 26.0 Firefox Page, Windows!

    seen on:
    -Windows 7 x 64 machine with 12 GB of RAM and high performance CPU (core i7-920)
    -Comments Machine virtual WinXP SP3 (in Oracle VirtualBox) running on the same computer
    -Intel Atom D525 netbook with 4 GB of RAM, running Win7 x 64

    None of these machines are connected through Sync or something like that. The Firefox instance on the virtual machine is a fresh install / clean.

    The problem:
    -100% of cpu usage for 10 seconds, (util in XP) memory usage goes up to 1.7 GB
    -If "subject: House" is actually the Firefox Start Page, it blocks the computer at startup of Firefox for 10 seconds
    -If "subject: House" isn't the Firefox Start Page, startup is fine - BUT if I press the "home" on the toolbar button it loads "on: House" which causes the same question once again

    Sounds that there is a problem with one of the code snippets that are responsible. I've seen several reports on this issue.

    You can set the browser.aboutHomeSnippets.updateUrl pref an empty string on the subject: the page of config to disable loading (new) checked to see if that helps.

    You can open the topic: config page through the address bar

    You must remove the ' storage\moz-security-about + origin "folder in the folder of Firefox to delete already profile stored clips.

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
