Hello,
i am no expert, so excuse.
Yesterday, i did a fresh install of vcsa with newest aviable iso 6.7U2a (Name: VMware-VCSA-all-6.7.0-13643870.iso , Release-Datum: 2019-05-14, Build-Nummer: 13643870), using tiny installation
on a HP proliant ML110 Gen10 with esxi 6.7 (completely patched up to date).
I used tiny instalaltion (10 gb RAM).
Directly after deployment, i opened the vm appliance management site (port 5480) and checked everything. Summary --> Health Status was all green. Then, still in management site, i searched for updates via URL and downloaded and installed the found patch (date 2019-05-30), so now the appliance has version 6.7.0.3110 (Build Number 13843380).
Then i first opened the vsphere web client and everything seemed to be ok. After creating datacenter, joining the windows domain, adding the esxi hosts to vcenter, etc, i reopned the appliance management site and saw that under Summary --> Health Status --> RAM i have following Alarm, that appliance is running low on memory and that i should add more meory to the aplliance. Monitor showed a usage of RAm of about 86%.
I went to web client again, and here it tells that vcenter is only using about 2,5GB of the 10 GB that were assigend during tiny installation.
What i did now (although i think this is useless) to reserve the whole 10gb to the vcenter RAM. But this does not change anything. At the Moment, management site tells RAm usage of 70% (low enough to not trigger Alarm in Health Status) an web client tells usage of 2,8 GB out of 10 GB.
What is going on here? Why do management and web client show totally different RAM usage?
I also have another issue:
in vcenter web client, i get a warning saying:
vsphere Health dedected new issues in your environment. Go to Monitor -> Monitor Health for a detailed description of the issues.
Is this triggreed because of the RAM Alarm in management? I dont have any warning, alerts, problems in webclient.
thank you for helping.
