Trapeze understands that every virtual environment has unique characteristics. Consequently, it is important to consult with your Trapeze representative and Trapeze Network Engineering staff for the recommended virtual machine hardware specifications for your specific Trapeze product in order to avoid Disk, CPU and Memory Oversubscription. Trapeze technical staff will work with your VMware administrator to help with your Trapeze product minimum hardware requirements for deployment in your VMware environment. Server performance should be evaluated on a regular basis to determine over or under utilization of provisioned resources.
