5 Essential Tips for Maximizing Your Experience at Nutanix .NEXT for Bloggers
[user=38154]Prad_Math[/user] thanks again after the PC reboot it's responding how it always used to respond prior to the 5.5 upgrade. It is very fast now. Prior to the shutdown this is the output from top. Memory was 60.97% for the VM. ---------------------------------------------------- top - 01:37:46 up 13 days, 49 min, 2 users, load average: 0.40, 0.42, 0.50 Tasks: 288 total, 1 running, 287 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 3.8 us, 2.9 sy, 3.2 ni, 89.4 id, 0.6 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.1 si, 0.0 st KiB Mem : 35276020 total, 13753708 free, 13200780 used, 8321532 buff/cache KiB Swap: 0 total, 0 free, 0 used. 20022112 avail Mem PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 3979 nutanix 20 0 4751388 4.256g 8488 S 11.3 12.7 316:21.98 insights_server 3204 nutanix 20 0 9.997g 3.187g 336424 S 7.0 9.5 88:32.98 java 4426 nutanix 20 0 4717120 630408 8832 S 0.3 1.8 438:35.45 java 5394 nutanix 39 19 3408568 527376 7696 S 0.
Hi Prad_Math, great information! I found the Update button for the Prism Central VM in the Prism Central GUI as you indicated. From there I was able to increase its memory from 16GB to 32GB and it went down to ~64% memory utilization from prior utilization of ~96%. I also set it to Flash Mode which probably only has a marginal effect on performance at this point but I want this VM to perform well as I use it frequently to launch into the clusters. I did run /health_checks/system_checks/pc_memory_availability_check and it did a PASS. I didn't see an option to reboot the PC VM. Should we have a how-to for properly shutting down and restarting the PC VM? I suppose it would never be necessary if it passes the healthchecks. I was just surprised because when I upgraded PC to 5.5, it was a rather large increase in memory utilization. With 16GB it went from around 30% average utilization to over 90%. I thought perhaps there was a runaway task chewing up the memory. Thank you for the
