Hello everyone,
I have a new client and he is driving crazy. He wants to do things with VMWare that is not possible (in my opnion).
The last architecture adventure of my client is:
Using VMWare ESXi 5.1, create a new Windows 2008 virtual machine. I added two virtual processors in that virtual machine.
Until this steps no problem, but he want to dedicate 1 vitual processor to OS and the another virtual processor to application. I don't believe if that is possible once the VMWare environment only delivery the processors to virtual machine. In my opnion if that is possible need to be a tool from the Guest OS no from VMWare.
He said that he already saw that kind of configuration in another clients. I'm working with VMWare about 6 years since ESX 2.x, I'm VCP2, VCP3, VCP4 and VCP5 and never see this kind of configuration.
He want do to that because the applications is licensed by processors.
I tryed to perform some tests, using Vapps, resource pools and I can see this option on vSphere.
Anyone knows if it is really possible? Using new ESXi 5.1 can I create this kind of configuration?
Thanks
