5.4.1.1. General Design Considerations
Some general recommendations for designing vApps include:
Default to one vCPU unless requirements call for more (multithreaded application virtual machines).
Always install the latest version of VMware Tools.
Deploy virtual machines using default shares, reservations, and limit settings unless a clear requirement exists to avoid
defaults.
For virtual network adaptors, use VMXNET3 where supported.
Secure virtual machines as you would
physical machines.
Use standard virtual machine naming conventions.
