Also, just to note, all of my VMs are configured for memory ballooning with 1.5gb guaranteed and can use up to 3gb. All VM guests are Windows 7 32bit.

 That's what I'm showing right now, but I don't have as many VM's running at the moment. There are currently 8 running and I was getting that issue yesterday when I got around the 15 vm mark.

I'm getting the following error trying to start a VM. I have 64 gb of

problem went away. Below is the error when trying to start a VM and

a swap file error when there's plenty of it available.


  * Cannot run VM. Host swap percentage is above the defined threshold.

    - Check your configuration parameters for Host Swap Percentage.
  * Cannot run VM. There is no host that satisfies current scheduling

  * The host USARPAOVRTHOST02 did not satisfy internal filter Memory.

what do you see under host general subtab for swap percentage?
