Hi All,
So I am running a 2012 R2 Hyper-V Cluster.
The guest machine is also a 2012 R2 server. It has been allocated up to 4 gigs of dynamic memory. When I go to the task manager to see how much memory is in use it is totally different than what I see in Hyper-V manager. In this case, the guest is showing that it has 4 gigs of memory with only 3.1 of it in use. In Hyper-V manager, I see that has assigned 2492 MB of memory and the memory demand is 2093 MB.
So the question that I have is many different groups where I work (staff members) run guest servers on my Hyper-V cluster, how do they figure out what their server is using for memory resources if the guest OS is showing something totally different than the Hyper-V manager?? Who is right??
Everything I have read so far says that eventually task and Hyper-V Manager will settle down and be the same but I have yet to see this. I see that in all cases a huge discrepancy between the two.
Anyone??
