Configuring a Virtual Machine's Memory
Configuring a Virtual Machine's Memory

You can change how much memory to allocate to a virtual machine. You can also review the amount of memory recommended by GSX Server, the maximum amount of memory that can be allocated to the virtual machine and the maximum amount of memory for smooth running of the virtual machine.

Note: Virtual machines created with GSX Server only have one virtual processor.

For more information about allocating memory to virtual machines, see www.vmware.com/support/gsx3/doc/performance_mem_size_gsx.html.

To configure the virtual machine's memory, complete the following steps.

  1. In the Hardware page, under Processors and Memory, click Edit. The Processors and Memory page appears.
  2. In the Memory field, enter the amount of memory to allocate to the virtual machine. The amount must be a multiple of four.
  3. Click OK to save your change and close the window.
