can someone help me understand resource pools ?
I have the following cluster
- 9 TB of RAM
- 350 Cores of CPU
Resource pool 1 = 200 VMs
"Low" Shares
*2000 Shares of CPU
*81920 Shares or RAM
Resource pool 2 = 300 VMs
"Normal" Shares
*4000 Shares of CPU
*163840 Shares of RAM
Resource pool 3 = 12 VMs
"High" Shares
*8000 Shares of CPU
*327680 Shares of RAM
*These look like default values from VMware.
I would like to confirm what is actually going on here and if this is balanced.
How much is each VM in Pool 1 entitled to roughly ?
How much is each VM in Pool 2 entitled to roughly ?
How much is each VM in Pool 3 entitled to roughly ?
There must be some simple math formula used to calculate this ?
