At this moment we have Vmware infrastructure 3.0. we have 2 ESX hosts HP Dl 385 G1 with 16Gb ram.
Due to the latest expension we have to many vmware hosts to guerantee High availability. We run out of memory to support all hosts on 1 ESX host.
There are a few sollutions:
* turn of some vmware hosts when 1 ESX host goes down * Increase the memory * scale out with 1 or 2 hosts
Turn off some hosts is a short term sollution
Increase the memory is not possible. The Dl 385 can handle no more then 16Gb of memory.
Scale out is the prefered solution.
