Update from 10.1.14-h13 to 11.1.13

Hello,

We have aVM500 Active/Active cluster activated through the credit system. I have a question about licensing VMs in version 11.1 using credits. Previously, the VM series had limitations on the number of allocated VCPUs and memory, meaning, for example, a VM500 was only allowed 8 VCPUs and 16 GB of memory. I looked at the documentation and saw that with the upgrade to 11.1, the maximum number of sessions decreased significantly, and to restore the maximum number of sessions, it is recommended to increase the memory. What is the maximum amount of RAM I can allocate based on the current credit? I'd also like to clarify about cores: does credits purchase the number of cores for the DP? If I bought 8 cores, can I allocate 12 cores? 8 cores for the DP and 4 cores for the MP?

Thank you very much for your reply!

@AlmazKydyrbaev,

Assuming that you are in a flexible vCPU model, I would recommend that you look at the credits estimator and play around with things a bit. Increasing your cores will increase your credit utilization and going from 8 to 12 would be a non-insignificant jump that would be a rather large increase.
