Reserves
=== Reserves ===
 
''Host Reserves'' define how much of a host's resources are to reserved for the host operating system. Once these reserves are configured, a virtual machine cannot be deployed on that host if doing so would require the use of the reserved resources. The host resources that may be reserved are as follows:
 
* CPU Percentage
 
* Memory
 
* Disk Space
 
* Maximum Disk I/O Per Second (IOPS)
 
* Network Capacity Percentage
 
=== Hardware ===
 
The ''Hardware'' screen displays information about the hardware configuration of the hosts system. Information provided includes storage devices, CPU, network adapters and memory. Some settings may be changed such as network adapter and disk storage options.
 
=== Networking ===
 
This screen displays and provides the ability to view and change virtual network settings on the selected host. Each configured virtual network may be selected from the list in the left hand pane and the corresponding settings changed in the center pane. For example an existing virtual network may be changed from a private network to an internal network. In addition, virtual networks may be added or removed using this screen.
 
=== Placement ===
 
The term ''Placement'' refers to the paths which are available for the storage of virtual machine files on the host. As such, this screen lists the currently configured placement locations and provides the ability to add additional paths to list of available locations.
 
=== Remote ===
 
This page allows the port used by the Virtual Machine Remove Connection tool to connect to the virtual machines on the host to be viewed and modified. The default is 2179 for Hyper-V based hosts.
 
=== Custom ===
 
Allows custom properties to be added to the ''Hosts'' table in the main pane of the VMM Administration Console Hosts view.
