Reservation of memory on a large scale

Does anyone use for almost every VM ESX memory reservations?

If so, why and how many virtual machines?

Thank you

In fact is not AIX VMware ESX and as has already been said, reserve memory should be used only if the host memory is oversubscribed (som of the VM memory > physical memory on the host).

Reservation of memory also impacts HA.

The only reason to use the memory of reserve must ensure some essential services that VM will not go into swap and they will have physical memory at any time, but this isn't a really common situation. I have only 2 of the VMs on 150.

  • Get some APs to join a vWLC large-scale which replaces a small scale vWLC

    Hello everyone. I'm in a bit of a dead end. Here's our situation:

    • We have two vWLC on a small scale (.210 et.211), each with 200 AP licenses max. They are both on the 8.1.120.0 version.
    • vWLC.210 is maxed out et.211 is halfway there, as far as APs go. All APs are AIR-CAP702I-A-K9.
    • We recently bought APs more, but it was unclear, these APs are now 702i-B, which works with a newer version.
    • We were already looking to upgrade le.210 to a vWLC on a large scale, but ran into problems (error attached screenshot) and for some reason any could not do.
    • I was on vacation (a week or more), came back and my colleagues have already implemented a new and large scale vWLC, running version 8.2.111.0. His IP est.212.
    • So now what we're trying to do is to have the + 300 APs connect a.212 the most effective way possible.
    • One way that we figured out to hover over an AP has been put by default, but it would be horrible.

    At this point, we are eager to have a single virtual controller (large scale) for all the APs. If someone managed to upgrade small-scale (version 8.1.120.0) large scale (version 8.2.110.0), which would definitely be the way to go. I couldn't get this error with our support team.

    If we cannot go from small to large, then the second option could migrate their all new, large scale (. 212) controller. What would be the best/effective way to do.

    Thank you

    I just deconnecter.210 the network vWLC and edit the new vWLC at the same IP address (. 210). In this way, all of your AP must register with new vWLC.

    If you intend to use these vWLCs, you need to change the PDC of each AP (under AP config - tab that high) to new vWLC name & IP management. You can do this via vWLC CLI as well. If you get all the details of your AP, you can prepare your config in Notepad & applied only once. (first test & make sure it works for you)

    (WLC) >config ap primary-base <vWLC_Name> <AP1_Name> <vWLC_mgt_IP>(WLC) >config ap primary-base <vWLC_Name> <AP2_Name> <vWLC_mgt_IP>.(WLC) >config ap primary-base <vWLC_Name> <APn_Name> <vWLC_mgt_IP>

  • Question of Admin RV120W - large scale deployment

    Hello:

    I've been doing demonstrations of the RV120W for review of deployment for a "large-scale SOHO deployment", maybe hundreds of sites. While I'm not a big fan because there is no CLI, to an interface web, the RV120W seems to do everything I need it to do on a basic level. However, since there is no CLI, is there a way to eat these for a large scale deployment? For example, is there a way to backup over the network configurations, or a way to make changes to configuration to all routers at once, on the automated plan, such as CiscoWorks, or another tool? I have not found or read anything that would be apt for this router...

    There are no tools for mass deployment. Everything as it goes is to do a "master config' charge to each router and then adjust the unique attributes. I think in all areas, it will be a tedious process.

  • Resizing of large-scale printing technique

    Hello Photoshopers.

    IM soon on the ground of the web printing, so I'd like to collect information about large scale printing techniques.

    I know for a given fact that a document be clear should contain enough pixels for the width and height to 300 DPI print immaculate.

    But not all cases are like that, and sometimes some pictures could be old and do not provide enough information to be printed clear.

    So my question today is as follows.

    e.i:

    A customer brought me her favorite photo and he wants large format poster for this wall 2 x 2 meters, seeing from close distance.

    so I open the document and see the following:

    Width: 991 pixels

    height: 678 pixels

    resolution 72


    (A) is there a way to make the customer happy without printing bad result?

    (B) what would be the best values to enter in the new document?


    (C) I did a paper 200 x 200 cm 300 DPI and the photo resembled a small thumbnail

    in this painting, I then scaled canvas size and zoomed to 100% image deteriorated.

    I tried to keep it as a smart object, but always the detail has been lost.

    Techniques and the info much appreciated thanks.


    As the proverb says: "Garbage in - garbage out." There is little you can do with a small image. You can try resampling using preserve details and maybe try a camera shake reduction after that. You can also try other software like Genuine Fractals, but you won't get good results.

  • Reservation of memory VM

    Need information please.

    I have part of a DRS and HA Cluster host. DRS value manual at present for other reasons.

    Host has 104 GB of memory. A virtual computer is running on this host. VM has 100GB vRAM

    When you try to create a reserve of memory of 100 GB for the virtual machine, I get the error that there is not enough memory available on the host. Why is this?

    No other virtual machines running on the host. I also put the admission control to turn off: power VM allow operations that violate constraints of availability.

    Any help?

    You probably use in a situation where general requirement of memory your VM.  This specified overload the memory of reading about the virtual machine Summary tab?  I bet this amount more time some ESXi system is going to be greater than 4 GB, for a virtual machine with 12 cores and 100 GB.  Watch MMTP/MB and see how vmk uses; It's that the amount of the 'memory of mangement' being used (not VM related).

    Question: if it's the only VM that runs on the host computer, so why bother creating a reservation?

    Yes I usually recommend this. You will not see a big difference in performance, but will save your storage space because it will only need to create two times less fat-file on disk.

  • How can I pay for the reservation of memory on all virtual machines to "0"?

    I am trying to write a script that will pay for the reservation of memory on all virtual machines that are invited in a cluster to '0 '.  We have book too much memory, and this setting should allow VMWare facilities manage reserves memory for me.  I have hundreds of virtual machines to update, so I can't do it by hand.  I hope that it is possible via the CLI.

    Can someone help me with this please?

    Matt example work certainly, and I'm sure that he was going to follow up with something similar to this after having confirmed if it worked or not because it is much more serious on the optimization of code for speed, but I'll (try to) save the effort. To test its extract on a cluster of 45 VMS, it took more than four minutes to complete.  The excerpt below took about 25 seconds.  The difference is of course to use the cmdlet "Get-View" and that it can run asynchronously so (it begins a vCenter task and immediately passes the following).  Of course, this will also put more of a strain to your vCenter server, so keep that in mind.

    $spec = New-Object VMware.Vim.VirtualMachineConfigSpec
    $spec.memoryAllocation = New-Object VMware.Vim.ResourceAllocationInfo
    $spec.memoryAllocation.Reservation = 0
    Get-Cluster "YOUR_CLUSTER" | Get-VM | Get-View -Property Config.MemoryAllocation | %{$_.ReconfigVM_Task($spec)}
    
  • Reservation of memory from system resources

    I use monik part of backup tools, and there is a best practice to change the setting of the CPU and the memory at 1500 MHz and 800 MB.

    In the next page of VMware KB, there is a description to change the allocation of memory, only in ESXi 4.1, there is no material cofiguration option > memory.

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1003501

    But in configuration > system resource allocation, I can set the CPU and memory, is that the same allocaiton memory for the ESXi console?

    On this tab, we have generally fine tune the allocation of resources for this host. But this sentence anyone unless someone has encountered a problem. For the parameters of the ESX host we usually set the value in memory and CPU for the console of any third-party application or service that makes us turn on this host.

    In the case of ESXi, if big it seems people leave just as Norbert has asked to change by a seller of 3rd party app.

    Please refer to this article which contains details about the reservation of memory from system resources

  • Reservations of memory

    Hello

    I would try to set a reserve of memory on one of our SQL servers. However, when I try to configure a virtual machine to use xGB memory, I get "not enough resources to meet the level of failover configured for HA.

    Also can someone please explain what "actions" option for us in respect of the Allocation of resources?

    We continue to have a user experience slow with some VMS, the harp of SQL guys on all physical servers being faster than the virtual, if we can change these virtual machines with these options of allocation of resources to our advantage that would be great.

    There are 3 ESX vSphere 4.0 hosts in cluster, 8x3Ghtz with 48 GB of mem, they use about 30% of the resources, a lot of spare grunt it I thought for reservations.

    Any advice would be appreciated!

    See you soon

    Brendan

    André - Gave you great link that is right out of the deep diving for book HA. %EST based option just below the defult setting and if I remember with overload you want to about 35%

    I have also now consider your 1st post you use pools of resources, can I ask how they used beining? Are they necessary? I want to smplifly your enveroment as much as possible so there is less area to find problems with the preformance.

  • Line appears when you apply the drop shadow on a large scale

    Hello!

    A few weeks ago, I had to make a graph on a large scale (800mmx2000mm) a roll-up banner. I wanted to apply a shadow to a rounded shape and ugly lines came. Because it's a little urgent, I decided not to use.

    But now I'm curious, so I quickly made an ellipse and added a shadow, so you will know what I mean. This also happens when I save it in pdf or image format.

    Screenshot 2013-11-07 at 03.45.31 nachm..png

    Maybe one day I'll have to use a drop shadow on a large scale. Then, someone knows how to fix this problem or what I could do in case I need to use this effect in these conditions? I use Illustrator CS6 in Mac with the Mavericks.

    Thanks in advance.

    Check and see that it is also.

  • Reservation of memory = slow start

    Hi guys,.

    why whenever I do use the reservation of memory on a prompt that the system takes forever to start? It takes a lot of time during the windows progress bar and applying computer settings.

    You'd try to check if the problem is not related to your storage space. By default, each virtual computer creates a swap file in the same place, where its vmdk and configuration files. To avoid this swap, you need to maximize the reservation of memory limit in the properties of the VM. You must close the virtual machine and start it again to see the effect

  • Reservation of memory for the server sqql

    Hello

    I am running two SQL servers with 4 virtual CPUs and each has 12G of RAM available.

    We have noticed that sql process uses only 180MB of RAM while SQL is designed to use all available memory... We decided to use a reservation of memory for these boxes and grant a full 12 GB for each booking.

    (1) that would be really useful?

    (2) I noticed that after having reserved memory, that the system has taken something like 10 minutes to start, can anyone explain to me why?

    Thank you

    The shares of resources can be adjusted if necessary. I don't think that you need. As well as the host has only a single virtual machine now, who knows what the future may bring. You add multiple virtual machines and you will start to do the math. ESX let his work resources and balance. If you see performance degradation then start looking at the distribution of resources.

    As for the CPU that the virtual machine is not the only object on the system might compete for processor resources, you also have the SC. When you give the VM 4 vCPU find the system to wait on the availability of all hearts.

    You can reduce the number to 2 and even play with the processor affinity if you want, you should try to determine the weather your SQL system really needs the CPU/MEM tweaks (in my experience IO is the cause of the headache of performance most SQL).

  • Why sometimes placed images open in CS2 on a large scale?

    I work with CS2.

    Lately, sometimes when I use the command set, the placed image is on a LARGE scale.

    If the image is too large in inches/centimeters you can adapt it in Photoshop without resampling increasing its effective resolution.
