2. Resource Settings
• CPU – Shares, Reservation, Limit.
• Memory – Shares, Reservation, Limit.
vApp Resource Pool VM
3. Sibling CPU Shares Value
• vApp = 4000
• Resource Pool
= 4000
• VM = number of
vCPU * 1000
4. Sibling Memory Shares Value
• vApp = 163840
• Resource Pool
= 163840
• VM = Mem MB * 10

If you want to
• use Resource Pools, do your math!
• group VMs in a container use the blue folders!
• have apple (VM) and orange (vApp) siblings
take care of them!
