sudo shutdown -h now
Continue after the virtual machine has been powered off by switching back to Prism Element.
Double-click the virtual machine which will be modified to have less RAM or CPUs. Double-clicking it opens the "Update VM" dialog window.
In the window, reduce the RAM and / or the number of vCPUs. For this example, the amount of RAM will be increased from 4 to 6.
Afterwards, click the Save button to commit the changes to the virtual machine.
