I have a HP DL585 G1 Server (4 Dual Core 2.6Ghz CPU's & 16 GB Ram)
Workstation Memory setting is 12GB reserved for VMWare, and Fit all Virtual Ram into Host Ram.
I have several Windows 2008 x64 Virtual Machines listed below
1. Server 08 with 1GB Ram (Print Server)
2. Server 08 with 1GB Ram (Mail Server)
3, Server 08 with 2GB Ram (Security Server)
4. Server 08 with 1GB Ram (Web Server)
5. Server 08 with 4GB Ram (Application Server)
now this adds up to 9GB (using the host OS performance monitor total system ram used is 10.2GB out of 16)
if I try to add just 1 more VM @ 1GB ram it notifies me there isnt enough ram in the system and I need to lower my requirement to 297MB
So why is workstation saying there is no memory available. When I should have about 3GB free????
How Do I fix this?
