Hello Guys,
For some reason the OVF has a reservation set for all the memory you allocate to it…
Edit the settings, click resources, click memory and slide the reservation to 0.
. I was pulling my hair……
Thanks Amit. It worked for me!!!
If you have no resource pools, by default you will receive this error when all of your vapps and vms that you’re running have a sum of all configured resources that is higher than the available resources. To change this behavior, put everything in a resource pool, and reserve all resources for this resource pool. This will change the behavior to use the sum of all reservations for running vms instead of the sum of all configured resources.
