Try to Explain with a simple scenario(if i am wrong please correct my understaning) Lets take an ESX Server has three Virtual Machines(VM1,VM2,VM3), each using a RAM of 8 GB. VM1 uses its maximum of 8GB RAM and now it needs more speed if any resource is try to add to it. VM2 uses just 3GB out of 8GB, so now VM1 use the remaining RAM speed from VM2 to store its new resource. this is called as Memory Ballooning. If VM2 needs more RAM, then the VM1 allows the RAM Speed it taken from VM2 and it came to hung state. "Utilizing the unused memory is ballooning". Message was edited by: asvidra
