they have standard license , so drs is not support features on that vmware environment

@nerdydad

oh sorry , this is my mistake .. it is 921 GB .

how to calculate the number of VMs running each VMware host server? if it goes down one or two VMware host server. Based on current CPU & Memory allocation? ...

Dear Team,

My one of the customer using vSphere Environments. They have 6 hosts in VMware cluster. They are running "88" Virtual machines.
I analyzed the Virtual infra, they are allocating vCPUs more than physical resources and also I have doubt, if one VMware host goes to downstate means,
what will be happening on VMware cluster??... I will try to analyze virtual hardware resources usage and all information I noted down here.
kindly guide me, how to shaping, sizing resources capacity and safe running Virtual infra in unplanned downtimes. Provide your suggestion.

single host hardware resources :

Logical Processors: 32 [ with enabling Hyperthreading ]
CPU speed : 3.20 GHz [ 16 Cores * 3.20Ghz is 51.2 GHz].
Memory : 192 GB

Total No. of the host is "6" with same hardware resources on VMware cluster.

Total VMware cluster Resources in "6" host server:

Total vCPU is 32 * 6 : 192
Total CPU capacity : 306.82 GHz [ 51.2 * 6 * 3.20 GHz ]
Total Memory Capacity : 192GB * 6 : 1.12 TB
Total No. of Power ON VMs running is "88" .

Right now, Total CPUs and Memory resources allocated on running Virtual Machines is

vCPU = 380 vCPU [ Total logical processors is 32*6 : 192 vCPUs]

Memory = 943596GB [ 921.480 TB ]

Thanks

Thanx to all .... i will analysis the VMware infra to reduce the vCPU on VMs.

@reid-cooper said in how to assign vCPU and memory on virtual machines on VMware vSphere?:

ou are still within the 100% ma

Based on all your discussion, more vCPU assigned than physical cores is not an issue. It's pretty ok. In my customer, sometimes facing more CPU usage caused slow performance. How to provide the solutions for this issue? CPU contention is not consistent. In both host server, they are running 12 VMs with 125vCPUs instead of 96vCPUs.

Dear Team,

In our customer has two vMware host server with cluster, HA. each host have 48 vcPU.
But, they are assigned total vCPU to all virtual machines is 61vCPUs on one VMware ESXi server and 64vCPUs on second VMware ESXi server. it is best praticies ? it will cause any CPU Contention in future ? Please guide me , how to size the VMware infra

Thanks

@francesco-provino said in how to manage two vCenter cluster setup in single vCenter web client console?:

a replicated vCenter or a clustered one

ok friend

Both DC and DR has dedicated vcenter server in existing setup. We need to manage both DC and DR VM on DC vcenter console ???

My customer has VMware Infra in both DC and DR location. In each location have specific vcenter server to manage the virtual infra. A customer asked to monitor both DC and DR Virtual machines in single vcenter server console on DC location. is it possible? , if possible what are the requirement need to configure on vcenter ?? kindly provide support.

Thank you
Ghani

@networknerd

yes, will plan to install 6.5U1 and have Vcenter appliance server, not windows vcenter.

@francesco-provino

your shared links help to get idea of upgrade

currently VMware latest version 6.5 on IT industry

vSphere upgrade path on vmware si

i searched, but that they do not provide sorted VMware upgradation pre-requistics in esxi host level, vcenter level, VM level, storage level, network level ???

Hello all,

I planned to upgrading ESXi 5.5 to ESXi 6.5 . They were 4 hosts in single vcenter server. It might be 90 VMs are running. so, what are the steps, i follow one by one process. kindly share the procedure or any document for upgrading ESXi latest.

Thanks

ok i will check

ESXi backup help to restore config on new VMware host hypervisor??

Dear All,

I need to install VMware critical patches on VMware ESXi host. For safety , how to backup entire VMware ESXi configuration. it is helps to restore in future if i have any issues on patch. kindly provide your support.

Dear Team,

I have Backup on Amazon cloud. I need to transfer my amazon backup data to Azure cloud.
It is possible? .... if it is possible, how i can process ? . kindly, provide your
suggestions.
