VMWare ESX 4.1 - Guest memory usage

Hi,
We are running an ESX Server 4.1 with 36 GB RAM. We have installed 4 VM (Windows Server 2008 R2 and MS SQL Server 2008 R2), each defined with 8 GB RAM (1 ERP 6.0 EHP3 ABAPJAVA, 1 ERP 6.0 EHP4 ABAPJAVA, 1 Enterprise Portal 7.02 and 1 Solution Manager 7.0 EHP1). Each SAP system is up and running, performances are good, but only a few users are working on each of them. I see a warning in Vcenter concerning the RAM usage (94%), but the guest memory usage is low (from 5 to 12% in average during the last month).
How can I optimize ?
Kind regards,
Christophe

Hi Christophe,
first of all, the warning you see is not critical. It is just a standard warning that comes up when a standard theshold of memory usage is reached. The 4 GB RAM you have left on the host should be sufficient to cover the memory allocation overheads of the VMs and the memory that is needed by the ESX hypervisor.
I assume you reserved 100 % of the assigned memory (mandatory for SAP virtualization). Reserved memory cannot be used by other VMs, therefore it is "not assignable" from the perspective of the hypervisor. This could be the reason why the threshold of the warning is reached although the utilization inside the guest ("active" memory) is low.
Kind regards,
Matthias

Slow performance, weird memory usage, hanging when closing safari tab

Hi, i recently noticed that my MacBoo Pro was with low performance after some hours of use.
I'm a heavy user, so I try to monitor what might be causing it. What i note was:
After restart (or fresh start), my computer was ok;
I use applications like adobe Lightroom and VMWare Fusion;
Then I star feeling like Safari was too slow to open pages - I thought it was the internet link first, but even local webpages are slow. I notice that when a click to close a tab, it take almost 2 sec to do it. The same when click to open any link on that page.
I start the activity monitor, but my proc usage are low. Then, I notice the (weird) memory usage:
Take a look at "memory used". I closed all applications before take this screenshot. i've trying to identify what is consuming this memory, but.. no success.
Anyone has any idea what can might be causing it?
My HW information:
all my apps are updated.

Memory usage was normal when you took that screenshot.
When you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.

OS X Yosemite Safari memory usage

Safari's memory usage under Yosemite continues to increase until system stalls due to paging. The memory gets to about 60G before the stall. Also, the process SafariDAVclient exhibits the same behavior. This started after I reinstalled Yosemite. Reinstalled again, no better.
Anyone have a solution?

Solaris Cluster 3.3 on VMware ESX 4.1

Hi there,
I am trying to setup Solaris Cluster 3.3 on Vmware ESX 4.1
My first question is: Is there anyone out there setted up Solaris Cluster on vmware accross boxes?
My tools:
Solaris 10 U9 x64
Solaris Cluster 3.3
Vmware ESX 4.1
HP DL 380 G7
HP P2000 Fibre Channel Storage
When I try to setup cluster, just next next next, it completes successfully. It reboots the second node first and then the itself.
After second node comes up on login screen, ping stops after 5 sec. Same either nodes!
I am trying to understand why it does that? I did every possibility to complete this job. Setted up quorum as RDM from VMware. Solaris has direct access to quorum disk now.
I am new to Solaris and I am having the errors below. If someone would like to help me it will be much appreciated!
Please explain me in more details i am new bee in solaris :) Thanks!
I need help especially on error: /proc fails to mount periodically during reboots.
Here is the error messages. Is there any one out there setted up Solaris Cluster on ESX 4.1 ?

@TimRead
Hi, thanks for reply,
I have already followed the steps also on your links but no joy on this.
What i noticed here is cluster seems to be buggy. Because i have tried to install cluster 3.3 on physical hardware and it gave me excat same error messages! interesting isnt it?
Please see errors below that I got from on top of VMware and also on Solaris Physical hardware installation:
ERROR1:
Comment: I have installed different memories all the time. It keeps sayying that silly error.
problem_statement : *Node has insufficient physical memory.
<analysis>5120 MB of memory is installed on this node.The current release of Solaris Cluster requires a minimum of 1024 MB of physical memory in each node. Additional memory required for various Data Services.</analysis>
<recommendations>Add enough memory to this node to bring its physical memory up to the minimum required level.
ERROR2
Comment: Despite rmt directory is there I gor error below on cluster check
<problem_statement>The /dev/rmt directory is missing.
<analysis>The /dev/rmt directory is missing on this Solaris Cluster node. The current implementation of scdidadm(1M) relies on the existence of /dev/rmt to successfully execute 'scdidadm -r'. The /dev/rmt directory is created by Solaris regardless of the existence of the actual nderlying devices. The expectation is that the user will never delete this directory. During a reconfiguration reboot to add new disk devices, if /dev/rmt is missing scdidadm will not create the new devices and will exit with the following error: 'ERR in discover_paths : Cannot walk /dev/rmt' The absence of /dev/rmt might prevent a failover to this node and result in a cluster outage. See BugIDs 4368956 and 4783135 for more details.</analysis>
ERROR3
Comment: All Nics have different MAC address though, also I have done what it suggests me. No joy here as well!
<problem_statement>Cluster node (3.1 or later) OpenBoot Prom (OBP) has local-mac-address? variable set to 'false'.
<analysis>The local-mac-address? variable must be set to 'true.' Proper operation of the public networks depends on each interface having a different MAC address.</analysis>
<recommendations>Change the local-mac-address? variable to true: 1) From the OBP (ok> prompt): ok> setenv local-mac-address? true ok> reset 2) Or as root: # /usr/sbin/eeprom local-mac-address?=true # init 0 ok> reset</recommendations>
ERROR4
Comment: No comment on this, i have done what it says no joy...
<problem_statement>/proc fails to mount periodically during reboots.
<analysis>Something is trying to access /proc before it is normally mounted during the boot process. This can cause /proc not to mount. If /proc isn't mounted, some Solaris Cluster daemons might fail on startup, which can cause the node to panic. The following lines were found:</analysis>

VMWARE ESX 3.5 and Netware 6.5

I want to Install a Netware 6.5 server in VMWARE ESX 3.5 in a
IBM x3650 with 2 CPU quad core.
But the guest SO wizard don't allow me to install more than
1 CPU.
Why is that?

Generally, Netware doesn't benefit from a second CPU. Of course
there are occasions where adding another CPU improves performance,
but Netware is IO bound, not CPU bound.
Under VMware, Netware will definitely perform better with a single CPU.
Netware does not idle the CPU, so when running under VMware, the
VMware tools idle the first CPU. If there are 2 CPUs, the second CPU
will always run at 100 percent utilization.

OneWorld XE B7333 SP21 runs slow in ESX 4.0 guest os

Gent,
We just migration several of our OneWold XE B7333 SP21 thin-client servers to VMWARE ESX 4.0 environment, but we found out the UBE report running is slower then when the server is still on the old physical server. We even add more processors and memory to this new virtualized server. But the UBE performance is still bad.
Is there anyone ever expereneced this also?

You might try un-installing the RIM software. It has caused problems for some people. Un-install using the developer’s instructions to make sure you remove all parts of the application.

Prime LMS 4.1 and VMWARE ESX 5.0

Can Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 be deployed on VMware ESX server 5.0 or not ?

No LMS 4.1 is not supported on ESXi 5.0. LMS 4.1 supports the following Virtualization Systems:
•VMware ESX server 3.0.x
•VMware ESX Server 3.5.x
•VMWare ESX Server 4.0.x
•VMWare ESX Server 4.1
•VMWare ESXi Server 4.0
•VMware ESXi Server 4.1
•Hyper V Virtualization (As an installable in Windows 2008)
For more details check:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/4.1/install/guide/prereq.html#wp1119955
On a side note, though a OVF/OVA file may be an issue, but you can try to install LMS 4.1 on a virtualized Win/Sol guest OS host, where it should work mostly. But for any issues further, Cisco or TAC may refer to this as an unsupported installation, for any t/s or support.
Else, you may upgrade to LMS 4.2 which is supported on ESXi 5.0.
-Thanks

Wich is better the ACS Server with VMware ESX or the Appliance for a multitenant environmet with ip overlaping

Excuse me, does any body can help me?
Wich is better the ACS Server with VMware ESX or the Appliance for a multitenant environmet with ip overlaping
I need to know if the ACS support the AAA functions but from equal ip segments (ip overlaping) on diferent places.... with diferent client networks.
We are implementing the ACS on a central site (our NOC), so each field engineer will be AAA from diferent sites, same ip networks and diferent places....
We need to implement support activities where our field engineer get access on a cisco device on the client premises, but the point is that we have a field engineer force wich get access on each device on diferent places.
With this scenary we need to decide wich is better: The appliance or the ACS Server with VMware ESX

Just a quick question - have you looked at superwaba
and wabajump? Superwaba is basically Java for pocket
pc and palm, but wabajump allows you to compile to
palm (not pocket pc). You can also use Eclipse for
development in an applet - much quicker than deploying
to device/virtual device. Small memory footprint as
well.
Cheers
Andy StrattonThank you Andy. I'll try it. Have you tried to use Websphere Studio Device Developer ?
I've tried version 5.5 but i found it not too comfortable.
I'd like to know personal experiences of the whole stack of components and tools involved
in the development process. We're trying to design the best environment for it.
Kind Regards

Vmware ESX Server

Hi folks,
is it possible to install vmware ESX Server (not OSX+Fusion) directly on my Mac Pro? I would like to have a very good hardware-based machine for the datacenter, and virtualize all guests using ESX.
Any advice will be appreciated
Best Regards
Andrea

Contact VM Fusion for this matter. If there's a compatible server edition (and I think there is) you will not find it here but at their website. For support join their forums (free) and go to the appropriate support forum.

Is SL giving maximum priority on memory usage to disk cache???

Pretty much every time I need to work with large files - be it video files, archiving or unarchiving large files, or working with VMWare images - the system quickly runs out of memory and starts swapping profusely. The swap file grows to 2-4 gigabytes pretty quickly, the system becomes unresponsive etc...
I have the latest MacBook Pro 2009 with 4G of RAM, and right after system reboot it shows about 2.8G of free memory, and 0 in swap.
Then I start VMWare, for example, which only uses about 500-600 megabytes of RAM. After some time working with it, the amount of free memory in Mac OS X steadily decreases, and then it starts swapping, and the swap keeps growing... The system becomes slower and slower, but yet, Activity Monitor is still showing that VMWare is using about 500-600 megabytes of memory. At the same time it shows about 2 gigabytes of Active memory, and about 1G of inactive memory, and about 800 megabytes of "wired" memory...
Where the **** did all the memory go??? Did system use it all for disk cache, trying to keep all disk images that VMWare is working with, in it at the expense of physical RAM available to other processes? If it is so - that's VERY silly, and while it may give an appearance of "snappiness" with small amount of simple applications that don't do much, it becomes a MAJOR problem for applications that work with large files - iMovie, VMWare, any other media processing application, cause Mac OS X to start swapping and beachballing, and become unresponsive after certain time of work, while the swap file keeps growing, yet the amount of memory used by those applications shown by Activity Monitor staying around 100-500 megabytes.
I've been working with JES Deinterlacer the other day - trying to convert a 1080i/30fps video into a 720p/60fps one. The file was about 23 gigabytes in size. Besides that I've only had Mail and Safari open. Before I started the deinterlacing process, there was about 1.5G of free memory. After it started, the amount has been going down steadily, until the system started swapping and become unusable after awhile. The deinterlacing process also slowed down significantly (my guess is - again - the system tried to give memory needed by JES Deinterlacer to the disk cache for the file it's been processing). There's no point in caching that file at all - there's 0 chances the application will ever need to jump back to the parts of the file it's already processed! Or to read any parts of the new file it's created!
What's other people's experience working with large files in Snow Leopard? Any Final Cut users? Or iMovie? Does your system exhibit the same behavior? Have you tried monitoring memory usage while you work with any of the applications that work with large files?

Having exactly the same issue. However, I cannot even get VMware to start. It gives me a "could not open paging file" message and never opens. I have also had strange random crashes recently where it seems to run out of memory and then the force quick dialogue opens and usually Safari, Entourage, or Aperture are frozen or paused. Really getting to be a big issue.
I contacted VMware and they looked at all the logs, had me try one change to an internal VM file, but without success. They now are suggesting that based on the logs, it is an OSX paging issue and that I need to do an archive and install!!! No way do I want to do that after just migrating to this new machine and getting everything set up so well!
Need some alternative ideas. Actually hoping 10.6.2 comes out and solves it!

Problem with Firefox and very heavy memory usage

For several releases now, Firefox has been particularly heavy on memory usage. With its most recent version, with a single browser instance and only one tab, Firefox consumes more memory that any other application running on my Windows PC. The memory footprint grows significantly as I open additional tabs, getting to almost 1GB when there are 7 or 8 tabs open. This is as true with no extensions or pluggins, and with the usual set, (firebug, fire cookie, fireshot, XMarks). Right now, with 2 tabs, the memory is at 217,128K and climbing, CPU is between 0.2 and 1.5%.
I have read dozens of threads providing "helpful" suggestions, and tried any that seem reasonable. But like most others who experience Firebug's memory problems, none address the issue.
Firefox is an excellent tool for web developers, and I rely on it heavily, but have now resorted to using Chrome as the default and only open Firefox when I must, in order to test or debug a page.
Is there no hope of resolving this problem? So far, from responses to other similar threads, the response has been to deny any responsibility and blame extensions and/or pluggins. This is not helpful and not accurate. Will Firefox accept ownership for this problem and try to address it properly, or must we continue to suffer for your failings?

55%, it's still 1.6Gb....there shouldn't be a problem scanning something that it says will take up 300Mb, then actually only takes up 70Mb.
And not wrong, it obviously isn't releasing the memory when other applications need it because it doesn't, I have to close PS before it will release it. Yes, it probably is supposed to release it, but it isn't.
Thank you for your answer (even if it did appear to me to be a bit rude/shouty, perhaps something more polite than "Wrong!" next time) but I'm sitting at my computer, and I can see what is using how much memory and when, you can't.

Problem with scanning and memory usage

I'm running PS CS3 on Vista Home Premium, 1.86Ghz Intel core 2 processor, and 4GB RAM.
I realise Vista only sees 3.3GB of this RAM, and I know Vista uses about 1GB all the time.
Question:
While running PS, and only PS, with no files open, I have 2GB of RAM, why will PS not let me scan a file that it says will take up 300Mb?
200Mb is about the limit that it will let me scan, but even then, the actual end product ends up being less than 100Mb. (around 70mb in most cases)I'm using a Dell AIO A920, latest drivers etc, and PS is set to use all avaliable RAM.
Not only will it not let me scan, once a file I've opened has used up "x" amount of RAM, even if I then close that file, "x" amount of RAM will STILL be unavaliable. This means if I scan something, I have to save it, close PS, then open it again before I can scan anything else.
Surely this isn't normal. Or am I being stupid and missing something obvious?
I've also monitored the memory usage during scanning using task manager and various other things, it hardly goes up at all, then shoots up to 70-80% once the 70ishMb file is loaded. Something is up because if that were true, I'd actually only have 1Gb of RAM, and running Vista would be nearly impossible.
It's not a Vista thing either as I had this problem when I had XP. In fact it was worse then, I could hardly scan anything, had to be very low resolution.
Thanks in advance for any help

Problem with JTree and memory usage

I have problem with the JTree when memory usage is over the phisical memory( I have 512MB).
I use JTree to display very large data about structure organization of big company. It is working fine until memory usage is over the phisical memory - then some of nodes are not visible.
I hope somebody has an idea about this problem.

High memory usage when many tabs are open (and closed)

When I open Firefox the memory usage is about 70-100 MB RAM. When I'm working with Firefox I often open 15-20 tabs at once, then I close them and open others. Memory usage increaes up to 450 - 500 MB RAM. After closing the tabs the usage usually decreases, but after sometime. It starts decreasing very slow and never comes back to the level from the beginning. After few hours of work Firefox uses about 400 MB RAM even if one tab is open. First I thought it's because of my plugins (Firebug, Speed Dial, Adlock Plus) but I've checked it and it's not. I reinstalled Firefox but the problem occurs as well. I'm not sure if it's normal. Could you help me, please?

Memory usage of excel stays high after Macro is executed and excel crashes after trying to close it

Hi,
I'm trying to resolve an issue with an excel based tool. The macros retrieve data from an Oracle database and do calculations with the data. They also open and write into files in the same directory. The macros all run and finish the calculations. I can
continue to use and modify the sheet. I can also close the workbook, however excel memory usage I see in the windows Task manager stays elevated.If I close Excel it says: Excel stopped working and then it tries to recover information...
I assume something in the macro did not finish properly and memory was not released. I would like to check what is still open (connection, stream or any other object) when I close the workbook I would like to have a list of all still used memory. Is there
a possibility to do so.
Here the code I'm using, its reduced to functions which open something. Functions
get_v_tools() and get_change_tools() are same as get_client_positions().
Public conODBC As New ADODB.Connection
Public myPath As String
Sub get_positions()
Dim Src As range, dst As range
Dim lastRow As Integer
Dim myPath As String
lastRow = Sheets("SQL_DATA").Cells(Sheets("SQL_DATA").rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Sheets("SQL_DATA").range("A2:AD" & lastRow + 1).ClearContents
Sheets("SQL_DATA").range("AG2:BE" & lastRow + 2).ClearContents

Thanks Starain,
that's what I did the last days and found that the problem is in the
newPrice_calculate (lastRow)
function. This function retrieves data (sets it as arrays) which was correctly pasted into the sheet, loops through all rows and does math/calendar calculations with cell values using an Add-In("Quantlib")
Public errorMessage as String
Sub newPrice_calculate(lastRow)
Dim Type() As Variant
Dim Id() As Variant
Dim Price() As Variant
Dim daysTo() As Variant
Dim fx() As Variant
Dim interest() As Variant
Dim ObjCalend as Variant
Dim newPrice as Variant
On Error GoTo Catch
interest = Sheets("SQL_DATA").range("V2:V" & lastRow).Value
Type = Sheets("SQL_DATA").range("L2:L" & lastRow).Value Id = Sheets("SQL_DATA").range("M2:M" & lastRow).Value Price = Sheets("SQL_DATA").range("T2:T" & lastRow).Value
daysTo = Sheets("SQL_DATA").range("K2:K" & lastRow).Value
fx = Sheets("SQL_DATA").range("U2:U" & lastRow).Value
qlError = 1
For i = 2 To lastRow
If (i, 1) = "LG" Then
'set something - nothing spectacular like
interest(i, 1) = 0
daysTo(i , 1) = 0
Else
adjTime = Sqr(daysTo(i, 1) / 365)
ObjCalend(i,1) =Application.Run("qlCalendarHolidaysList", _
"CalObj", ... , .... other input parameters)
If IsError(ObjCalend(i,1)) Then GoTo Catch
'other calendar calcs
newPrice(i,1) = Application.Run( 'quantLib calcs)
End If
Catch:
Select Case qlError
Case 1
errorMessage = errorMessage & " QuantLibXL Cal Error at: " & i & " " & vbNewLine & Err.Description
ObjCalend(i,1) (i, 1) = "N/A"
End Select
Next i
Sheets("SQL_DATA").range("AB2:AB" & lastRow).Value = newPrice
'Sheets("SQL_DATA").range("AA2:AA" & lastRow).Value = daysTo
' erase and set to nothing all arrays and objects
Erase Type
Erase id
Erase Price
Set newPrice = Nothing
Is there a possibility to clean everything in:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
End Sub
Thanks in advance
