This is an interesting one, if you disable the balloon driver, won't the
guest VMs' then be hoarding free memory they don't need? I guess it's a
case of which situation do you think is least worst?

Simple, the memory optimization (balloon driver) works by allocating
kernel mode memory. For a x32 bit Terminal Server, this can be
devastating to scalability as there are limits. This is one of the
reason you hear of shops only getting 10-20 users per vm.

Let us know what they say. I understand why the shared folders should
be not allowed - they broke something. But I'm not sure why the memory
optimization (ballon) drivers should not be used. I haven't seen
anything to explain why not just a caution not to use them.

Thank you, Joe and Eric. I am checking with my VMware guys to see if
that is the case.

Did you install the VM tools? When you did, did you remove the "Shared
Folders"? If not, then do so... Also remove the memory optimization
(balloon driver) while you're at it.

I forgot to mention that it seems to be working fine on our other 40
Physical PS servers.

For some reason, the UPHClean program, although running as an active
service, is not working on any of our Virtual Servers. We are running
Win2k3 SP2, PS 4.0. UPHClean is version 1.6d.
Has anyone else seen an issue with this running on Virtual Servers?
