vSphere High Performance Cookbook - Second Edition

Memory Performance Design

In this chapter, we will cover the tasks related to memory performance design. You will learn the following aspects of memory performance design:

  • Virtual memory reclamation techniques
  • Monitoring a host-swapping activity
  • Monitoring a host-ballooning activity
  • Keeping memory free for VMkernel
  • Key memory performance counters to monitor
  • What counters not to use
  • Identifying when memory is the problem
  • Analyzing host and VM memory
  • Memory performance best practices

Introduction

Although VMware vSphere uses various mechanisms to efficiently allocate memory, you might still encounter a situation where VMs are allocated with insufficient physical memory.

You should know how to monitor memory usage of both host machines and VMs. You should also know how to troubleshoot common memory performance problems, such as those involving a demand for memory.
