vSphere Availability

Hi All,

We need to change the HA slot sizing in our environment to a custom setting. I am using the Advanced Options of das.slotcpuinmhz and das.slotmeminmb to set the custom values. However, when selecting the Advanced Runtime Info link the slot sizing parameters are not being applied. In an effort to try to get the settings to take I disabled and re-enabled HA with no success. Any other thoughts?

Thanks in advance,

-Jason

Can you attach a screenshot of the advanced runtime info screen? What values are you setting the advanced options to?

Thank you for the response. Below is the request screen shot. We are attempting to increase the das.slotmeminmb to 512.

The advanced options you're using can only be used to set a cap on the slot size, not to define an absolute value. So if the max reservation+overhead of all the powered on vms is less that the value you specify in the advanced option, then the advanced options will not take effect. There is no value in making the slot size larger than the largest vm.
