Thanks for responding!
I understand when editing settings, memory settings are grayed out because we do not enable memory hot plug.
However, I was hoping that the task scheduler would except me to schedule a Shutdown Guest VM, then allow a second subsequent scheduled task to increase the RAM.
I've added the Shutdown task, and now trying to add an Edit Resource settings task, but RAM is still grayed out. Pic attached...
Looks like I just can't do it, and will have to manually babysit it to get it done....
