Chapter 8 Working with Virtual Machines

CPU information:

Number of Virtual CPUs – Maximum number of processors is four for version 4 virtual
machines and eight for version 7 virtual machines. If virtual CPU hot add is supported and
enabled, you can add virtual CPUs to a deployed and powered on virtual machine.
The datastore for a virtual machine must be connected to a host that provides the required SMP
technology for the guest operating system. If you select a CPU number not currently compatible
with the CPU of the host, you cannot deploy the virtual machine until you attach a host with the
appropriate SMP support. If you have some but not all hosts that provide the required SMP
technology, Lab Manager limits the number of hosts on which the virtual machine can be
deployed.

CPU Reservation (Mhz) – Minimum amount of CPU set aside for the virtual machine.

CPU Priority – Priority for shares of CPU.

CPU Shares – Relative amount of CPU for a virtual machine compared to other virtual machines
in the same configuration.

CPU Limit (Mhz) – Maximum amount of CPU available for the virtual machine.
See the vSphere documentation for details on CPU priorities, shares, reservations, and limits.

Memory information:

Memory (MB) – Amount of RAM allocated for running the virtual machine. If memory hot add
is supported and enabled, you can add memory to a deployed and powered on virtual machine.

Memory Reservation (MB) – Minimum amount of memory set aside for the virtual machine.

Memory Priority – Priority for shares of memory.

Memory Shares – Relative amount of memory for a virtual machine compared to other virtual
machines in the same configuration.

Memory Limit (MB) – Maximum amount of memory available for the virtual machine.
See the vSphere documentation for details on memory priorities, shares, reservations, and limits.

Use Time Synchronization – Enables time synchronization between the guest (virtual machine) and
ESX/ESXi host operating systems. You must install VMware Tools to use this option.

Perform Customization – Specifies whether guest customization is enabled.

Boot Sequence – Integer ( 0 ‐ n ) indicating the boot sequence for the virtual machine. You do not need
to use sequential numbers. Lab Manager can determine the relative order.

Boot Delay – Delay in seconds between the bootup process of this machine and the next machine.

SID mechanism – Specifies the mechanism Lab Manager uses to change the SID. You can switch the
default tool Lab Manager uses to change the SID, or select None .
To use Microsoft Sysprep, you must first create a Microsoft Sysprep package for guest customization.
See “Build a Microsoft Sysprep Package” on page 41.

Deployment Lease or Storage Lease – Depending on whether the virtual machine is deployed or not,
this option allows you to update a time to undeploy the virtual machine or delete the virtual machine
(or mark it for deletion).

System Messages – Messages or alerts about vCenter activity that could raise errors in Lab Manager.
