Configuring CPU and Memory

You can configure memory shares allocated to a virtual machine to adjust its allocated resources. When you add resources, the appropriate amount of unassigned memory or CPU shares must be available for the operation to succeed. If values exist for the minimum and maximum allowed memory or CPU shares, any resource allocation change must stay within these limits. You can edit VM CPU and memory allocation using the Quick Start link on the Resources tab. You can also use create and schedule policy with specific VM resource allocation actions.

Important! For Dynamic LPAR operations, like adding or removing CPU and Memory, install AIX version 5.2 or 5.3 or 6.0 or higher on each LPAR system. Alternatively, run AIX resource control daemon IBM.DRM on the LPAR system.
