Transparent Page Sharing (TPS) is a memory saving technology used by vSphere that allows for duplicate memory pages to be shared between virtual machines. To address security concerns about sharing memory between virtual machines across security domains, TPS can be disabled, enabled across groups of virtual machines with the same salt settings, or enabled across all virtual machines in the environment.

How to do it...

Refer the following steps to design and implement TPS:

1. Identify the different options for sharing duplicate memory pages within a virtual machine and across groups of virtual machines
2. Configure TPS to meet requirements for the security and performance of the environment
3. Configure salt...
