+ | ====== Hot add Memory & CPU for VmWare Linux guests ====== | ||
+ | ===== Hot add Memory ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Add memory via the vSphere Client / Virtual Machine properties. | ||
+ | |||
+ | For RHEL 5 add the memory and make the new memory online (available for the kernel). | ||
+ | |||
+ | echo "online" > /sys/device/system/memory/memoryX/state | ||
+ | |||
+ | Alternatively use the script found in the link. | ||
+ | |||
+ | For RHEL6 the add memory is automatically discovered by the kernel. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Hot add CPU ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | For RHEL5 & RHEL6 it is not possible to hot add CPU(s) in VmWare. | ||
