Each time the virtual machine status is changed to pause, the machine dies. Hard drive light is always on, it will take a long time to be good.
This phenomenon is the Vmem file in the VMDK directory caused the problem, the Vmem file is equivalent to the paging file in the system, when the virtual machine is turned on to generate this file hard drive read and write causes the hard disk light is often light, very slow problem, this file will be automatically deleted when the virtual machine is closed.
If the physical machine memory is large enough, you can remove the file.
Workaround:
"Disable" The Vmem file for a specific virtual machine
open a. vmx file with Notepad
Modify the Vmx file in a specific virtual machine directory, adding one line to it: Mainmem.usenamedfile = "FALSE"
This will not produce the Vmem file, and you can also add the following content to optimize the virtual machine (host to have enough physical memory)
sched.mem.pshare.enable = "FALSE"
Memtrimrate = 0
Prefvmx.userecommendedlockedmemsize = "TRUE"
prefvmx.minvmmempct = "100″
