I'm curious what kinds of virtual hardware sizing those of you that run vCenter as a VM are using? We have a decent size infrastructure (80 hosts) on 1 vcenter. We have a separate host (actually oracle cluster)for the DB, but I'm interested in knowing how many vCPUs and how much memory people are dedicating to their vCenter VM?
we have multiple instances, some are physical, some are virtual.
Our most recent is running as a VM and managing 16 ESX Hosts and 200 VM's. It has 1vCPU and 2GB RAM. One of our VDI vCenter instances which is also a VM is managing 18 ESX hosts and 908 XP VM's
All are running vCenter 2.5U4 and our DB is a clustered physical SQL server.
