Issue
- EcoStruxure™ Process Expert is based on the collaboration of different software (called "participants") and a single database for the control system application, with the capability to accept new participants and third-party components
- Each EcoStruxure™ Process Expert configuration embeds at least one virtual machine, which runs the software participants required to design and operate the control system
- If user find extremely slow and sluggish performance whenever working with the software participants, user might need to adjust the virtual machine parameters
Resolution
Each virtual machine is allocated the following default resources:
- 4 GB of memory
- 2 logical processors
If the virtual machine hosts memory-intensive software applications (like Control, Supervision and third-party applications), user might need to allocate more RAM or logical processors to ensure virtual machine doesn’t need to swap back and forth to disk.
