What will Sigar Api reflect (CPU, Memory) when run Virtual Machine

Hi,
I am using sigar api for a module. The Module will  be deployed on machines which are virtual machines.
i.e. a part of whole system resource (CPU, RAM etc.) will be allocated to the VM by the OS.
If Sigar is  run on VM system, will it give the result for resources allocated for VM or for the System/OS as a whole?
Please reply if any info is available, this is very urgent.
Thanks

Very interesting.  I'll have 30-40 VMs running, all Generation 2.  I notice a significantly faster start time on the Generation 2 than on any Generation 1.  Generally it starts in a couple seconds.
It looks like you are using dynamic memory.  What sort of value do you have for startup memory?  Have you tried using fixed memory (just for a test)?  I tend to use fixed memory for my VMs.

  • How much ram does the farm need when running virtual machines

    Hello Community
        When running Hyper-V you need more RAM to assign to each virtual machine.
        Approximately how much ram needs to be assigned to each virtual machine?
        Thank you

  • What will the iPhone 5S have? When will it come out?

    Just wondering when to get a new iPhone, what will the main upgrades be, etc.

    As shldr2thewheel stated whatever has been released to the general public is what everybody else using these forums will know.
    To keep up to date on the latest news on Apple news, reviews or product release information see the link below:
    http://www.apple.com/au/hotnews/
    If it hasnt been stated on that website then no new information has been released therefor you would need to wait till an update for a new device has been made public.
    Hope this helps

    I just have a quick question, why did you buy a laptop solely for the game, 8 months before you even knew what the requirements were?
    If you like my post, or solution to your issue/question, go ahead and click on the little star by my name and/or accept the post as the Solution. It makes me happy.
    I'm NOT an employee of Best Buy, or Geek Squad, though I did work as an Agent for a year 5 years ago. None of my posts are to be taken as the official stance that Best Buy will take on your situation. My advice is just that, advice.
    Unfortunately, that's the bad luck of any electronic, there's going to be bad Apples... wait that's a horrible pun.

  • What do I need to worry about when running a VI for an extended amount of time?

    Hi, I'm fairly new to LabVIEW as a program, but not new to programming as a whole.
    I'm attempting to build a VI which will, hopefully, be run continuously and take data for weeks-months at a time.
    I've never built a VI, let alone a program, which will be run continuously for so long, and so I'm unsure as to what I should be concerned about. I'm looking right now at optimizing, as best I can, memory allocation, algorithms, etc. but I suppose my main question is: What should I really be worrying about when programming a VI which will be run continuously for an extended period of time?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    In the structure of your VI's, be certain that you are not repetively creating things such as references to queues, or file references, or DAQ tasks, or anything without closing them.  I was working on one application where a DAQ task was getting created every loop iteration and not being closed.  It crashed the PC hard with a blue screen of death after about 20 minutes of operation, through debugging and before I found the cause, I saw I had about 80,000 to 100,000 iterations of a loop fairly consistently before the crash.
    If this loop had run at a slower rate, it might have taken days or weeks before the PC would have crashed.  It would have seemed infrequent and would have taken longer to debug because I would never have seent the pattern.  If it takes a few failures before you discover the problem, it is a lot quicker to find the explanation after a few failures at 20 minutes per failure as opposed to 20 days per failure.  The problem was eventually found in a subVI several layers down and fixed.
    So if you pay attention to these things early enough, then hopefully they won't pop up and bite you weeks or months into a critical run of the program.

  • Random 100% CPU kernel when running java

    Hi!
    This happens sporadically but far too often to ignore. When running java (1.7.0_10, x64, standard kernel) I notice full utilization of all cores; and it's kernel time.
    The machine quickly freezes so it's kind of hard to investigate...

  • How to provide RDP cert file when create virtual machine deployment?

    hi,
    the Azure REST API here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/jj157194.aspx#bk_certificates did not say how to provide a cert for the VM when create it.
    the StoredCertificateSettings let you install the uploaded cert onto the vm, but this does not allow you to replace
    the RDP cert which created by Azure when the VM is created.
    see below:
    the highlighted cert is automatically created by Azure for the virtual machine to secure the RDP connection.
    so when you try to remote to the VM, you will see this error, because the cert used for the RDP on the VM is not installed into the "Trused Root Certification Authorities" on local machine.
    i want to replace the cert that azure automatically created :

    Hi,
    In Azure, this feature is called
    custom data. Currently, you can inject custom data into an Azure VM by using the
    Windows Azure command-line tools (--custom-data). 
    I assume that it is not supported in Python API. You can use “custom_data=xxx”
    within “create_virtual_machine_deployment” to check if it works.
    If it is not yet available, please submit your requirement in Azure feedback below:

  • XP mode on Win7 Pro x64, windows xp update/svchost pushes CPU to 100% in virtual machine.

    Installed xp mode on a win7 pro, dell 490 with xeon cpu. The install goes without error, win xp virtual machine loads nicely, I do not enable updates at the config during 1st startup. When Automatic update is enabled later control panel shows svchost is
    pushing the cpu to 100% and the update never completes.

    Hi,
    1. try to run XP in safe mode by F8
    2. then change Automatic update service to Manual or Disable.
    3.boot XP into normal mode and see weather its still 100%.
    thanks
    How do you start safe mode when running XP Mode in Win 7?  When you start XP Mode, the BIOS is hidden.  By the time the XP Mode window comes up, its already loading the Windows desktop.

  • Lync 2013 desktop sharing is giving Black screen when using virtual machine

    Hello,
    We have a user who is connecting our network through VPN and connecting to a virtual machine. He is able to login to lync but when he start desktop sharing or some one sharing the desktop to him, he is getting black screen. He is using windows 7 and Lync
    2013 client. Please advice

    Hi,
    Did he receive any error message?
    Please double check the ports for VPN traffic.
    Please also enable logging on Lync client for further troubleshooting.
    What’s more, when users connect to the corporate network using a VPN client, Lync media traffic is sent through the VPN tunnel. This configuration can create additional latency and jitter because media traffic must pass through an additional layer of encryption
    and decryption. The issue is compounded when the VPN concentrator is busy.
    You can configuration like this:
    Lync client connect to the Access Edge Server for all signaling connections when on the corporate VPN. However, Media sessions routed through the A/V Edge Server interface instead of establishing connectivity through the VPN tunnel.
    More details:

  • Western Digital External Hard drive keeps undocking when running time machine.

    I have been using a 2TB Western Digital My Book external hard drive for about a year now to run time machine and backup my files. The past month I have noticed that my backups have been failing. I try and for a backup and about halfway through it gets "delayed" because of an error. Then I have a alert pop up on my desktop with the following message:
    The disk was not ejected properly. If possible, always eject a disk before unplugging it or turning it off.
    The disk was not unplugged from the power supply or the usb port. I am stumped. Anyone know what is going on and how to fix it??

    I would avoid WD, Seagate, LaCie, and Iomega external drives, and any drive with special features such as networking or built-in backup software.

    Regards,
    Pradeep J

    I don't know. I've never tried.
    Look at the manual (7210midpSimGuide.pdf in the docs directory). Maybe there is something in there. In the command line options there are a bunch of tracing options that you can specify, like tracing allocations, garbage collections, stackmaps, etc.

  • Version 5.0 will not unload itself from memory when I close it. This results in not being able to open FF later unless I manually go and close the application in Windows task manager. Any ideas as this is getting very frustrating.

    I have this issue on 3 computers that were just updated with FF 5.0. When I close FF, the application "Firefox.exe *32" remains in memory. Trying to open FF again later greets me with the error that FF can't open because another instance of FF is already running. Previous versions did unload completely and never caused this issue..

    I found the culprit. Norton Internet Security added an add-on to FF called Symantic IPS 2.0 which is causing FF 5 not to close properly. I have no idea what it is for but FF works properly again with it disabled.
    For reference, that add-on worked fine with FF 3.x as well as FF 4.x. It just doesn't seem to like FF 5.0.

  • ITunes 10.5 uses over 230,000K of memory when running on Win XP. Cpu ussage is maxed out at 100%. Why is this happening ?

    on my laptop itunes is fine, it uses about 23,000k of memory,
    and the itunes helper is not even an issue.
    On my desktop running win xp itunes uses 230,000k of memory. I'm unable to run anything else.
    I've already uninstalled and reinstalledand no change.
    Can anybody help ??

    Sounds like a problem with Excel, perhaps you have a Macro virus.
    Download the free ClamXav and run a scan
    http://www.clamxav.com/
    Then uninstall and reinstall Office.
    You can always use the free LibreOffice

  • What will happen to my contact/apps when i sync my iphone to a restored pc

    I recently reinstalled my OS and deleted all data, but now want to sync my iphone. i saved most of my data to a hard drive but a few things i have forgotten about, contacts/apps. will it delete my contacts now on the the phone? also itunes says it will delete all the apps but is it possible to get those back as they were purchased from my istore account

    Would you care to post here the solution? or a link to it?
    Many people including myself are losing their previous purchases and cant update broken apps anymore.
    As of Sept. 2012 fact is: You keep your previously purchased and downloaded items. But you cant update them anymore after you change to new store.
