For a test platform, you may wish to allow users to work with more compute resources than are present in your servers.
To create oversubscription for a test platform create compute load level rules for CPU and RAM for each server.
Do not use oversubscription in a production environment. The platform allocates the resources to the virtualization technology, but the virtualization technology is responsible for managing the resources
To create a load level compute rule:
Privilege: Access infrastructure view and Private DCs, View datacenter details, Manage allocation rules
- Go to Infrastructure → Private → select a datacenter
- If you are in Map view or Statistics view, click the Server symbol in top right-hand corner to go to Servers view
- Go to Allocation rules
- On the Global panel, click the Add
button
- Select the "Load level compute" rule type
Complete the dialog, selecting the server and setting values above 100% for CPU and RAM
