VMware and SQL and Lock Pages in Memory - SQL Server with Mr. Denny

 

In other words, use Lock Pages in Memory with SQL/VMWare with great caution.

With the recent release of the ability for the Lock Pages in Memory setting to be used on SQL Server 2005 and 2008 Standard Edition I see more and more people shooting them selves in the foot with this setting when running under VMware.  I see this as becoming more of an issue now that this switch is available for Standard edition as I would assume that most virtualized SQL Server installations are done using SQL Server Standard Editions.
