Understanding how to assign memory to a virtual machine is an essential skill for SysAdmins who want to make their hardware more effective and efficient. James Conrad will show you how to configure and allocate memory for a virtual machine and why it’s essential to allocate the appropriate amount of memory for your applications.

Virtual machines are greedy 😈 — they want their cake and to eat it, too. So it helps to be prudent with how much memory you assign virtual machines.

Being careful of how much memory you let virtual machines use is tricky, but knowing what happens if you assign too much memory to a virtual machine can help you make the right decisions from the start.

Remember! 💡
Virtual machines still need enough memory to power an entire operating system and the applications you need that VM to run.
VMs also need to share physical memory with other VMs.
There is a potential for issues, but not if you correctly set your minimum and max memory assignments, memory buffer, and memory weight in Hyper-V.
