HI all

i m using a server with 8gb physical memory, i hv enabled /pae switch in
boot.ini so OS is able to recognize and see 8GB memory. I am running virtual
server 2005 on it. and i can also see 8 gb on virtual server administrator
console but it looks it is not able to utilize 8gb rather 4gb only, as i
have around 15VMs but can start only 10 of them at a time which makes a
total of them around 3.5gb (some are using 256MB and some 512MB) and i guess
500mb or so is used by base OS...

All the VMs are on same virtual network connecting EXTERNAL to our LAN.

any ideas ??
thanks

Are you sure you're not just displaying the default of 10 VMs at a time per
webpage?

What happens if you go into Virtual Server Website Properties under Master
Status View and change the defualt of number of Virtual Machines per page
from the default of 10 to 15? Do you see all your VMs then?

Do you have the /3GB option enabled? If so - please disable it.
