Hi HM team,

Is there a way to test for VmWare ballooning ?

I see no default "test" method or script in HM

many thanks in advance

There is no such test method.
What exactly VMWare do you use?
What exactly parameter do you want to check? "Baloon" memory size for specific guest system? Total "baloon" memory size for all guest systems?

Regards
Alex
