You must optimize the IP Office virtual machines resources to meet the requirements of virtual machines IP Office role, see IP Office Server Profiling.

After profiling, you can start the virtual machine.

• Profiling Other Virtual Machines:

  It is good practice to monitor the resource utilization of all the virtual machines running in their infrastructure. Profile all virtual machines running on the virtual server platform to fine-tune the hardware resources allocated and used. This will improve performance by allocating resources where needed and optimize the use of the virtual infrastructure.

• Multiple IP Office Servers:

  If deploying servers with the intention of using resiliency, then the hardware resources and profiling applied to each server must include allowance for the scenarios where users re-register from one server to the other, effectively increasing the server's user requirements. If there is a mix of non-virtualized and virtualized machines, then the assignment of resources to the virtual machine must match the hardware resources available in the non-virtualized machine.
