Sun Ray Software running virtualized on VMWare ESX
822732Mar 29 2011 — edited May 12 2011Wondering if anyone else has encountered a problem with high cpu utilization when running a Sun Ray Software solution on VMWare's ESX platform? I have configured several servers using VMWare's free version ESXi. I had one installation that was performed using a high availability ESX solution. The servers continually have their virtual cpu's peg out at 100%. I'm working with Oracle on this issue but the patch they provided did not work yet. There was some indications that perhaps the hardware the ESX software was running on had a known bug with Oracle Enterprise or Solaris 10. I've tried both and both have the same problem.
This past week I had another ESX high availability setup to install the Sun Ray Software to. This is running on IBM hardware and I've successfully installed this when using ESXi. I encountered the same problem with this setup...the cpu is pegging out at 100%. It's seems obvious to me that there's a problem with the Sun Ray Software running on the ESX platform using high availability. Has anyone else seen this before?
