An IT support analyst is configuring a developer's workstation to host three concurrent virtual machines (VMs) for multi-platform application testing. The resource requirements for the guest VMs are as follows:
- VM 1: of RAM
- VM 2: of RAM
- VM 3: of RAM
The host operating system requires a minimum of of RAM, and the client-side hypervisor specifies an additional of system RAM overhead. What is the minimum total amount of physical RAM that must be installed in the workstation to run all three VMs simultaneously without memory overcommitment?
- A
- B
- C
- Cevap
Cevap
The minimum amount of physical RAM required is , calculated by adding all guest VM allocations (), host OS memory (), and hypervisor overhead ().
To ensure stable performance without overcommitting resources, a host machine must contain enough physical RAM to cover all active guest virtual machines (), plus the RAM needed by the host operating system () and hypervisor management overhead (). Summing these values yields .
