Re: Max Number of VMs per Host

We are using ESXi 4.1 as our vmhost and we are limited to about 4 VM's per host. This is mainly due to the fact that our vm's are running on local disks (not network storage) so we limit it to 4 to try and minimize the I/O on the disks (for performance). Thanks! David Creech Technology Suppo

Re: add manageMapping resource attribute to control resource mapping

I definitely think this is a great idea. Gives the faculty/staff members more privileges but not *too* many privileges that they can cause other issues. David Creech Technology Support Specialist Computer Lab Coordinator ITCS - Academic Computing Austin Building - 102 East Carolina University 25

Go to Manage Groups -> Add and then in the field that says "Max Overlapping Reservations" you can designate the number of concurrent reservations. Once the group is created, add yourself to the group. That should do it! On 1/12/10 4:45 PM, "yu267155...@hotmail.com" wrote: I build a VCL envi
