Abstract
Techniques for assigning memory reserved for high availability (HA) failover to virtual machines in high availability (HA) enabled clusters are described. In one embodiment, the memory reserved for HA failover is determined in each host computing system of the HA cluster. Further, the memory reserved for HA failover is assigned to one or more virtual machines in the HA cluster as input/output (I/O) cache memory at a first level.
