We have 2 departments under a single host and I whish to divide the resources (CPU, memory) evenly between the departments.
If deparment "A" is not working (VMs are shutdown) it is ok that department "B" will receive more than 50% of the resource, but as soon as department "A" will power-on VMs the resources should be split evenly again.
I was thinking to use "Shares", both for CPU and Memory to accomplish that. From what I read I understand that if I use the same value for both departments they will have the same priority. So it doesn't matter if I give both departments Shares=High or Shares=zero.
These are the resource pool values, both for CPU and memory:
Shares=0
Reservation=0
Explandble Reservation=Checked
Limit=Unlimited
Will this give me the wanted behavior?
