You've considered developer mode being on....right? -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Theo Fondse Sent: Monday, June 13, 2011 5:39 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: *******ITSM 7.6.4 install in VM environment
Hi Enslin! If this is a production environment, rather put your DB on a physical host - especially if you need high throughput and/or reliability and/or good performance. (Otherwise, suffer in silence...) :-) One reliable, good performing VM environment would be Solaris/Oracle, but you are using Micro...t. We've had to solve some serious problems on 7.6.4 recently relating to running the DB on a VM (Bad Performance and serious system outages). It's OK to run everything else in a VM, but the DB should rather be on a physical host if you want best performance & reliability. If you use these servers for Dev or QA, I'd say, you can run the DB on a VM, but be prepared for bad performance. Alternatively, If you absolutely have to stick to these VM's, install Remedy directly on the SQL box and beef up the RAM to 16Gb or more. Then use the old APP VM for Mid-Tier & AIE on 8Gb RAM. You won't gain extreme amounts of performance, but this split should give best possible performance within that specific configuration set. Also test your network and disk setups to see if they are performing optimally, as disk and network could also have a huge impact on performance.

After the install it is simply to slow to use and I need to know if there are any best practises and advice for installing Remedy ITSM 7.6.4 in a virtual environment? Windows 2008 R2 16Gig RAM 4 CPU - App server Windows 2008 R2 8Gig RAM 4 CPU - SQL server Maybe someone tried it before and realized that the application simply does not perform in a virtual environment Maybe some specific configurations to be set, any data would be welcomed.
