Choose a reasonable amount of memory to allocate to the virtual machine.

For example, if the host system does not have enough physical memory to support the memory

allocation, the user cannot power on the virtual machine.

Choose a reasonable screen resolution for the guest.

A user is likely to find it easier to increase the resolution manually than to deal with a display that

exceeds the user’s physical screen size.

Using the Virtual Machine UUID

Each virtual machine has a universal unique identifier (UUID). The UUID is generated when you initially

power on the virtual machine.

You can use the UUID of a virtual machine for system management in the same way that you use the UUID

of a physical computer. The UUID is stored in the SMBIOS system information descriptor, and you can

access it by using standard SMBIOS scanning software, including SiSoftware Sandra or IBM smbios2.

If you do not move or copy the virtual machine to another location, the UUID remains constant. When you

power on a virtual machine that was moved or copied to a new location, you are prompted to specify

whether you moved or copied the virtual machine. If you indicate that you copied the virtual machine, the

virtual machine receives a new UUID.

Suspending and resuming a virtual machine does not trigger the process that generates a UUID. The UUID

in use at the time the virtual machine was suspended remains in use when the virtual machine is resumed,

even if it was copied or moved. You are not prompted to specify whether you moved or copied the virtual

machine until the next time you reboot the virtual machine.

Configure a Virtual Machine to Keep the Same UUID

You can configure a virtual machine to always keep the same UUID, even when it is moved or copied.

When a virtual machine is set to always keep the same UUID, you are not prompted when a virtual machine

is moved or copied.

Prerequisites

Power off the virtual machine.

Procedure

1 Open the virtual machine configuration (.vmx) file in a text editor.

2 Add the uuid.action property and set it to keep.

For example: uuid.action = "keep"

Delete a Virtual Machine

You can delete a virtual machine and all of its files from the host file system.

IMPORTANT Deleting a virtual machine is irreversible.

Prerequisites

Power off the virtual machine.

Procedure

1 Right-click the virtual machine in the library and select Delete VM from Disk.

2 Click Yes to delete the virtual machine.
