5.4 Virtualized Operation

This chapter provides information how to check the availability of particular resources prior to the and

during the operation of the KCS platform on the ESX server.

5.4.1

Checking CPU and Memory Requirements

As the requested resources must be granted for the particular VM running real-time applications (e.g.

TCOSS Server), the ESX server performs resource availability check during power on of the VM. If the

resources cannot be granted (due to over-commitment), ESX server will not start up the VM and displays

an error message like the following:

So, in the case of KCS real-time applications (TCOSS Server), the ESX server itself would guarantee that

CPU and memory requirements are fulfilled.

On the other hand, for other non-real time applications (e.g. IPPrinter) without any granted CPU/memory

resources, following steps may help to identify CPU and/or memory resource problem:

1. Check the CPU usage by the VI client:
