UNITY VSA - add ressources after the deployment

Question

Hello, we have deployed Unity VSA with default values in ESXi 5.1 environment. Using iSCSI ressources and array based replication, I'm having response times very slow. It's possible to add ressources like memory and CPU after the deployment or I need to redeploy the ova ? Thank you.

I dont think it is supported to change the CPU/Memory beyond whats documented

AndreD Dell · Answer

Changing CPU and memory settings on the VM will cause it not to boot up. This is not supported.

Since you mentioned iSCSI and slowness, I would recommend you check delayed ack. Have a look at KB 486506 (step c.)

Hi, you cannot do it, as said before. Also one requirement for UnityVSA is ESXi 5.5 or 6... Response time much much depends on your underlying hardware though...
