I have been sent here by VMware education since they thought this would be the easiest way for me to find a sponsor for my pursuit of VCI.  Is there any broker that would be able to sponsor me?

 

I would require the following for my VCI.  All of them would be provided by me and I would require no financial help to obtain the VCI.

1. Attend the 5.1 of the ICM twice.  They said that I should do this even though I took the 5.0.  Would do this ASAP but can’t proceed until I have a sponsor.

2. Attend the VCI workshop.

 

To the best of my knowledge I have taken care of all the other according to VMware.

 

Thanks to all.  Hope to hear from you.

I have VM Workstation 8.0.2 installed on a host with

– OS as Ubuntu 64 bit 12.04

– 32 CPUs                                                   

– 64 GB of RAM

– 4 x Intel NICs each 1Gbps speed

 

My guest VM is

–         32bit Ubuntu 10.10

–         4GB of RAM

–         4 CPUs

–         2 Virtual NICs at speeds of 1000Mbps (I checked with ethtool)

– VMWare client tools installed (and reinstalled several times)

 

I get max of 120 Mbps between the guest and the host (measured using many tools; i.e. iperf and cp over NFS4 from and to guest). On the other hand, the performance of the host (where the VM Work Station 8 is installed) to another host on the same network is 900+Mbps. BTW, pinging from the host to the guest is 600ms and to another host on the network around 95 ms. In other words, the VM Guest performance is 1/6 the performance of calling another host on the network.

 

Most solutions on the net (including the one below),

http://communities.vmware.com/thread/105389

recommended turning OFF tcp offloading, and my output on the host and guest as follows:-

#host, same output for other eth1,2,&3

sudo ethtool –k eth0

Offload parameters for eth0:

rx-checksumming: off

tx-checksumming: off

scatter-gather: off

tcp-segmentation-offload: off

udp-fragmentation-offload: off

generic-segmentation-offload: off

generic-receive-offload: on

large-receive-offload: off

rx-vlan-offload: on

tx-vlan-offload: on

ntuple-filters: off

receive-hashing: on

 

#Guest

scatter-gather: off

I looked for solutions on the net and couldn’t find any, any ideas guys?
