<div dir="ltr">The tool is really only good for laying our VMs based on vCPU requirements. It will show you the VM requirement totals for other facets, but otherwise, the IOPS, vDisk, vRAM, and vNIC are all up to you to manually validate.<div><br></div><div>I created a custom VM requiring 999GB of RAM, and placed it on a C220 M4S TRC2 a bunch if times, and the tool let me.
