1 Topic Configuration s VMware vsphere 4.0 When you select and configure your virtual and physical equipment, you must stay at or below the maximums supported by vsphere 4.0. The limits presented in the following tables represent tested, recommended limits, and they are fully supported by VMware. Virtual Machine s on page 1 ESX Host s on page 3 vcenter Server s on page 7 vcenter Server Extensions on page 8 The limits presented in this document can be affected by other factors, such as hardware dependencies. For more information about supported hardware, see the appropriate ESX hardware compatibility guide. Please consult individual solution limits to ensure that you do not exceed supported configurations for your environment. The Configuration s for vsphere 4.0 covers ESX, ESXi, and vcenter Server. Virtual Machine s Table 1 contains configuration maximums related to virtual machines. Table 1. Virtual Machine s Compute Virtual CPUs per virtual machine (Virtual SMP) 8 Memory RAM per virtual machine 255GB Virtual machine swap file size 255GB 1 Storage Virtual Adapters and Devices Virtual SCSI adapters per virtual machine 4 2 Virtual SCSI targets per virtual SCSI adapter 15 3 Virtual SCSI targets per virtual machine 60 Disk size IDE controllers per virtual machine 1 5 IDE devices per virtual machine 4 6 Floppy controllers per virtual machine 1 4 VMware, Inc. 1
2 Configuration s Table 1. Virtual Machine s (Continued) Floppy devices per virtual machine 2 7 Networking Virtual Devices Virtual NICs per virtual machine 10 8 Virtual Peripheral Ports Parallel ports per virtual machine 3 Serial ports per virtual machine 4 VMDirectPath VMDirectPath PCI/PCIe devices per virtual machine 2 9 VMDirectPath SCSI targets per virtual machine 60 Miscellaneous Concurrent remote console connections to a virtual machine Same as the maximum virtual machine memory size. 2. Any combination of supported SCSI virtual storage controllers. Four Paravirtual SCSI adapters may be used only if the virtual machine boots from a device attached to an IDE controller, or from the network. 3. Any combination of disk, CDROM or VMDirectPath SCSI target. 4. Limited by maximum VMFS file size (assumes 8MB VMFS block size). 5. Supports two channels (primary and secondary) each with a master and slave device. 6. Devices can be either CDROM or disk. 7. BIOS is configured for one floppy device. 8. Any combination of supported virtual NICs. 9. Requires I/O MMU on host. VMware, Inc. 2
3 Configuration s ESX Host s The following tables contain configuration maximums related to ESX hosts. Storage s on page 3 Compute s on page 5 Memory s on page 5 Networking s on page 6 Resource Pool and Cluster s on page 7 Storage s VMFS 2 is supported on ESX 3.0 through 3.5. Table 2 contains configuration maximums related to ESX host storage. Table 2. Storage s VMFS-General Raw device mapping (RDM) size Volume size 64TB minus 16K Hosts per volume 64 1 Virtual machines per volume 256 Volumes per host 256 Extents per volume 32 Hosts per cluster 32 Extents size Max I/O size (before splits) 32MB VMFS-2 Files per volume Blocksize File size (block size=1 MB) File size (block size=8 MB) File size (block size=64mb) File size (block size=256mb) (64 x additional extents) 256MB 456GB 2TB 27TB 64TB VMFS-3 VMFS 3 volumes configured per host 256 Files per volume ~30,720 2 Block size File size (block size=1mb) File size (block size=2mb) 8MB 256GB minus 512GB minus VMware, Inc. 3
4 Configuration s Table 2. Storage s (Continued) File size (block size=4mb) File size (block size=8mb) 1TB minus Fibre Channel LUNs per host LUN size Paths to a LUN 16 Total paths on a host 1024 LUNs concurrently opened by all virtual machines 256 LUN ID 255 HBAs per host 8 HBA ports 16 Targets per HBA 256 NFS Default NFS datastores 8 NFS datastores 64 (requires changes to advanced settings) Hardware iscsi Initiators LUNs per host LUNs concurrently used 256 Initiator ports per host 4 Total paths on a host 1024 Paths to a LUN 8 Dynamic targets per adapter port 64 3 Static targets per adapter port 61 3 Software iscsi Initiators LUNs per host LUNs concurrently used 256 NICs port bound with the software iscsi stack per server 8 Targets (the sum of static targets and dynamic targets may not exceed this figure) Paths to a LUN Total paths DRS limit is 64. Linked clone limit is Sufficient to support the maximum virtual machines. 3. Includes local devices/disks. VMware, Inc. 4
5 Configuration s Compute s Table 3 contains configuration maximums related to ESX host compute resources. Table 3. Compute s Virtual CPUs per host 512 Virtual machines per host Logical processors per host 64 2 Virtual CPUs per physical core Specific solution limits may be lower; please check individual solution limits for maximum supported configurations. 2. Logical CPUs per host = CPU sockets x cores/socket x threads/core. Regardless of the host s configuration of CPU sockets, cores/socket or threads per CPU core, the total number of logical CPUs (hardware threads) may not exceed this number. Logical CPUs in excess of this number are ignored. 3. The achievable number of vcpus per core depends on the workload and specifics of the hardware. For more information see the vsphere 4.0 Performance Best Practices and Benchmarking Guidelines. Memory s Table 4 contains configuration maximums related to ESX host memory. Table 4. Memory s Size of RAM per host RAM allocated to service console Minimum RAM allocated to service console Swap files Swap file size 1TB 800MB 400MB 1 per virtual machine Same as max virtual machine RAM VMware, Inc. 5
6 Configuration s Networking s The following limits represent achievable maximum configuration limits for networking in environments where no other more restrictive limits apply. For example, vcenter Server limits, the limits imposed by features such as HA or DRS, and other configurations that might impose restrictions must be considered when deploying large scale systems. Table 5 contains configuration maximums related to ESX host networking. Table 5. Networking s Physical NICs 1 e1000 NICs Ethernet ports (Intel PCI x NIC) 32 e1000e NICs Ethernet ports (Intel PCI e NIC) 32 igb 1GB Ethernet ports (Intel) 16 tg3 1GB Ethernet ports (Broadcom) 32 bnx2 1GB Ethernet ports (Broadcom) 16 forcedeth 1GB Ethernet ports (Nvidia) 2 s2io 10GB Ethernet ports (Neterion) 4 nx_nic 10GB Ethernet ports (NetXen) 4 ixgbe Oplin 10GB Ethernet ports (Intel) 4 bnx2x 10GB Ethernet ports (Broadcom) 4 Infiniband ports (refer to VMware Community Support) N/A 1 PCI VMDirectPath Devices 2 PCI VMDirectPath devices per host 8 vnetwork Standard Switch Total virtual network switch ports per host (vds and vss ports) 4096 Virtual network switch ports per standard switch 4088 Port groups per standard switch 512 Standard switches per host 248 vnetwork Distributed Switch Total virtual network switch ports per host (vds and vss ports) Distributed virtual network switch ports per vcenter 6000 Distributed port groups per vcenter 512 Distributed switches per vcenter 16 Hosts per distributed switch Mellanox Technologies InfiniBand HCA device drivers are available directly from Mellanox Technologies. Please refer to Mellanox for support status of InfiniBand HCAs with ESX. Infiniband drivers for ESXi hosts are not available These limits are supported with standard switches and distributed virtual switches. 3. Default is 256 with a maximum of 15 VDS s running concurrently. If the number of ports is increased to 4096, then only one VDS can exist on the host. VMware, Inc. 6
