Topic Name : Adjust Latency Sensitivity

Publication Name : vSphere Resource Management

Product/Version : VMware vSphere/6.5

Question :

Can I configure this setting at any time after deploying the VM? i.e. can the vm be running? Does the change take effect immediately with no other user interaction required?

mimartin ,

You have to power off the VM before Latency sensitivity change. You can change it after VM deployment. You don't need to do anything else to the configuration take effect.

Hi,

I also need to set Latency sensitivity high for a VM. However, I am getting below error.

Error: The specified parameter was not correct:spec.memory allocation The latency-sensitivity virtual machine must have memory reservation set to memory size.

Any help to resolved this.

When a VM is made "Latency Sensitive" you have to reserve all its memory as well.
