HA error -

I have enbled HA on my vm cluster. I tried to increase one of VM's resource allocation. I got an error " In sufficient resources to satisfy configured failover level for HA ".. It still has enough unreserved resources for the amount that I want to increase. Anyone has any idea where to check first..

thanks

How many hosts you have in that cluster?. Check the Number of hosts failure configured in the HA config.

only two hosts ..what confuse me was.. it shows " current failover capacity - 1 host, configured failover capacity 1 host ",, When I tried to configure it to 2, I am getting the same error message as when I tried to increase the cpu or memory resources.

thanks

right click on host and click on 're-configure for ha' - that should solve your problem ...

what type of license do you have?

Your configured failover capacity is set to 1, so you basically cannot allocate more resources than what ONE host owns.If this host goes down, the other one will have to host all your VMs with its resources. You cannot set it the failover to 2 because you do not have 2 hosts to failover to since you only have a total of 2 hosts. That is why you are getting the error.

Distribute the resources of one host, then you can set the failover capacity to 1 without getting an error. I would consider adding more hosts though.
