vRanger throws error “Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown”
The resolution is to reduce the amount of ballooning that could happen inside the vRanger VM to stop .Net and the balloon driver competing for memory.
The following Steps should applied to the vRanger VM.
Right Click the VM Click edit
Click Resources
Click Memory
Change Shares to High
Check Limited to unlimited
Set the Memory reservations to 50% of the assigned memory of the VM.
For example if your vRanger VM has 4 GB you should reserve 2 GB of the 4GB the VM has assigned.
