The guest, however, is brutally slow to do anything, including keep its clock accurate. Apps are as responsive as I would expect given the hardware. If I RDP into the host, everything feels fine. log file in the host vm folder I see a lot of entries like the following.ĭec 11 23:20:50.881: vmx| scsi0:1: Command WRITE(10) took 2.218 seconds (ok)ĭec 11 23:20:50.944: vmx| scsi0:0: Command WRITE(10) took 2.346 seconds (ok) Write caching is enabled on the host SCSI controller. (Odd, since the guest says about 600 MB.) The guest is running in a single-CPU mode and is configured with the LSI Logic virtual SCSI hardware. The guest is given 896 MB of RAM, which the host says only 224 MB is in use. It does not have antivirus installed, but the host does. (Losing 15 seconds out of 30.) The server runs Spiceworks, WSUS and a tiny web interface for our time-clock database on a separate SQL server. I have to keep a command prompt open at all times that resynchronizes the time with the host. In using a freshly created virtual machine, I'm finding that it is getting more and more sluggish and that it is losing time quickly. When you view the vm_name.vmx file, you see the parameter inserted as tools.syncTime = "FALSE".Xeon 2.4 GHz - 1.5 GB RAM - Hardware mirrored RAID Note: When adding tools.syncTime via the Configuration Parameters in vSphere 5.x, it is not displayed again after the entry has been accepted and closed.Click Add Row and add this information:.Under Configuration Parameters click Edit Configuration.Right click the virtual machine and choose Edit Settings.Select the virtual machine in the vSpehere Web Client inventory and power it off.Add configuration parameters using the vSphere Web Client:.Click Configuration Parameters, then click Add Row and add this information:.Click the Options tab and click General (under Advanced).On the Summary tab, click Edit Settings.Select the virtual machine in the vSphere Client inventory and power it off.Add configuration parameters using the vSphere Client.Note: In GSX, VMware Fusion, VMware Player and VMware Workstation, you must use "FALSE" instead of "0". For more information, see Editing configuration files in VMware ESXi and ESX (1017022). Open the virtual machines configuration file, located at /vmfs/volumes/ datastore_name/ vm_name/ vm_name.vmx using a text editor.For more information, see Using ESXi Shell in ESXi 5.x (2004746). Connect to the host with an SSH session.METHOD 1: Add configuration options in the virtual machines.If you want your guests to never sync backward in time, disable the options (by selecting "0" for each option).įor more information on time keeping, see Timekeeping in VMware Virtual Machines. Note: Unlike the normal periodic time sync, which can move the guest clock only forward, these special time syncs can move the guest clock either forward or backward. There are two methods to completely disable time synchronization in the guest. Even if this box is not checked, by default VMware Tools synchronizes the virtual machine's time after a few specific events that are likely to leave the time incorrect. The time synchronization checkbox controls only whether time is periodically re-synchronized while the virtual machine is running. Then the customer can focus on fixing their ESX environment.
