Troubleshooting Set CPU Resources or Set Memory Resources When the Value is
Not Supported
If you run the Set CPU Resources action with an unsupported value on a virtual machine, the task fails and
an error appears in the Recent Task messages.
Problem
The Recent Tasks list indicates that a Set CPU Resource or Set Memory Resource action has a state of Failed.
When you evaluate the Messages list for the selected task, you see a message similar to the following
examples.
RuntimeFault exception, message:[A specified parameter was not correct.
spec.cpuAllocation.reservation]
RuntimeFault exception, message:[A specified parameter was not correct.
spec.cpuAllocation.limits]
Cause
You submiîŽed the action to increase or decrease the CPU or memory reservation or limit value with an
unsupported value. For example, if you supplied a negative integer other than -1, which sets the value to
unlimited, vCenter Server could not make the change and the action failed.
Solution
u
Run the action with a supported value.
The supported values for reservation include 0 or a value greater than 0. The supported values for limit
include -1, 0, or a value greater than 0.
Troubleshooting Set CPU Resources or Set Memory Resources When the Value is
Too High
If you run the Set CPU Resources or Set Memory Resources action with a value that is greater than the value
that your vCenter Server instance supports, the task fails and an error appears in the Recent Tasks messages.
Problem
The Recent Tasks list indicates that a Set CPU Resource or Set Memory Resource action has a state of Failed.
When you evaluate the Messages list for the selected task, you see messages similar to the following
examples.
If you are working with Set CPU Resources, the information message is similar to the following example,
where 1000000000 is the supplied reservation value.
Reconfiguring the Virtual Machine Reservation to:[1000000000] Mhz
The error message for this action is similar to this example.
RuntimeFault exception, message:[A specified parameter was not correct. reservation]
If you are working with Set Memory Resources, the information message is similar to the following
example, where 1000000000 is the supplied reservation value.
Reconfiguring the Virtual Machine Reservation to:[1000000000] (MB)
The error message for this action is similar to this example.
RuntimeFault exception, message:[A specified parameter was not correct.
