So I have to set these values or it's a finding (bad thing CAT 1), so I'm trying to find an easy way to set them based on the current VM settings, with a powercli script or something. If any host VMs do not have share, limit, and/or reservation setpoints initialized, as appropriate to their respective levels of the risk of exploit or attack, this is a finding. With the appropriate (site-specific) level selected for the VM, select the OK button to save any change(s). Appropriate values must be set for memory, CPU, advanced CPU, and disk variables. Right-click the VM select Edit Settings to configure the virtual machine's memory and/or CPU limits, shares, and/or reservation(s).
Care must be taken to ensure that the settings do not hamper dynamic resource allocation and management proper to virtualization systems.įix Text: From the vCenter client, select the Datacenter/host. Right-click the VM, select Edit Settings to check the virtual machine's memory and/or CPU shares, limits, and/or reservation(s).
From the vSphere Client/vCenter, select the Datacenter/host. You can use this mechanism to prevent a denial of service that causes one virtual machine to consume so much of the host's resources that other virtual machines on the same host cannot perform their intended functions.Ĭheck Content: Virtual machines (VMs) that have a greater risk of being exploited or attacked, or that run applications known to potentially consume resources must be constrained. By using the resource management capabilities of ESXi, such as shares and limits, you can control the server resources that a virtual machine consumes. Ref: VMware ESXi Version 5 Virtual Machine Security Technical Implementation Guide :: Release: 6 Benchmark Date: ĭiscussion: By default, all virtual machines on an ESXi host share the resources equally. I'm trying to implement the following requirement: I can log in with AD account, but can't really do anything without su to root. Or perhaps there is something wrong with my set up. Is this by design? if yes, what good is it if you have to su to root? that means for everyone you provide AD account access to ESXi you'll have to share the root pw for them to do anything. Why did I set all this up only to have to su to root to execute anything? Can't even execute ping without su to root first. The host config tab shows I am connecting to AD, the trusted domain controllers appear in the interface, not the dashes you see when your connection is broke. Now, as a member of the ESX Admins group, when I log into ESXi via SSH why is it that I can't execute anything, keep getting errors pertaining to executing the commands I want to run, including ping. Set up the ESX admins group in AD, added the people who deserve the rights etc. I spent a good deal of time integrated our hosts with AD.
