The latency-sensitivity is used to request from the kernel a constraint on the scheduling delay of the virtual CPUs or other resources. This allows latency-sensitive applications(e.g. VOIP, audio/video streaming, etc.) to run in a virtual machine which is configured to use specific scheduling latencies and to be scheduled with low latency.
The kernel does not provide any guarantee that it will meet the latency-sensitivity requirement of a virtual machine CPU or other resources but it will always accept the latency-sensitivity value provided.
Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| level | LatencySensitivitySensitivityLevel |
The nominal latency-sensitive level of the application.
|
| sensitivity* | xsd:int | Deprecated.
As of vSphere version 5.5, this field is deprecated.
The custom absolute latency-sensitivity value of the application.
This value will be used only when the latency-sensitivity
level property is is set to
custom. It is ignored in all other cases.
The unit of this value is micro-seconds and the application is more
latency sensitive when this value is smaller. For example, if the
absolute latency-sensitivity is 2000us, the kernel will
try to schedule the virtual machine in a way so that its scheduling
latency is not more than 2ms.
