Changing the Virtual Machine properties for the Virtualized Environment

About this task

Use this procedure to adjust the Virtual Machine properties of the server to meet the requirements of the AE Services template.

importantImportant

Any modification to the Virtual Machine resource settings (for example, removal of resources all together) is not recommended. Modifying these allocated resources could have a direct impact on the performance/capacity of the AE Services Virtual Machine. For the AE Services Virtual Machine to run at full capacity, these resource size requirements must be met. Removing or downsizing reservations significantly could put this requirement at risk. For more information, see AE Services Virtual Machine resource requirements.

Procedure

  1. In the vSphere Client window, select View > Inventory > Virtual Machines and Templates.
  2. Right-click the Virtual Machine, and select Edit Settings.
  3. In the Virtual Machine Properties window, click the Resources tab.
  4. In the Settings list, click CPU.
  5. In the Resources Allocation area, perform one of the following steps:
    • Move the Reservation slider to specify the appropriate number.

    • Enter the appropriate number in the Reservation box.

    noteNote

    Since the AE Services Virtual Machine requires four virtual CPUs, multiply by four the CPU speed displayed under the host's summary tab.

  6. Click OK.
