After clicking a Virtual Machine (VM) guest on the All Systems page, select the VM Performance tab to display the following configuration information for the guest:

  • VM Performance. This section includes:

    • Processor Utilization Percentage. The processor utilization on the VM host.

    • VM Processor Utilization (vCPU). The CPU percentage consumed by the VM relative to the resource utilization.

    • Host Processor Utilization on x CPUs. The CPU percentage consumed by the VM relative to the number of physical processors (x) on which the VM can execute.

    • Host Processor Utilization on all CPUs. The CPU consumed by the VM relative to the total VM Host Processors.

    • Memory Utilization. The physical host used by the VM.

    • Network Throughput. The network traffic transmitted and received by the VM. The bar is always completely filled.

    • Network Transmission Throughput. The network traffic transmitted by the VM. The bar represents the transmission percentage of the Network Throughput.

    • Network Receive Throughput. The network traffic received by this VM. The bar represents the receive percentage of the VM Network Throughput.

    • Storage Throughput. The storage read and written by VM. The bar represents the read percentage of Storage Throughput.

    • Storage Read Throughput. The storage read by the VM/ The bar represents the read percentage of the Storage Throughput.

    • Storage Write Throughput. The storage written by the VM. The bar represents the write percentage of Storage Throughput.

  • Resource Allocation. The bars indicate the VM allocation relative to the capacity available on the VM host.

    • VMware ESX Server VMs. This section includes:

      • CPU Min. The cpu.min value reported by ESX.

      • CPU Max. The cpu.max value reported by ESX.

      • CPU Shares. The cpu.shares value reported by ESX.

    • Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 VMs. This section includes:

      • Reserved Capacity. The reserved system capacity value reported by the virtual server relative to one CPU.

      • Maximum Capacity. The maximum system capacity value reported by the virtual server relative to one CPU.

      • Relative Weight. The relative weight value reported by the virtual server.

  • Threshold Settings. A VM-specific threshold can be evaluated and this section includes:

    • Threshold Interval. The number of minutes of utilization data that must be available before the threshold is evaluated.

    • Threshold Value. The maximum utilization value that provides a normal status.

    • Measured Interval. The number of minutes of utilization data that is averaged when calculating the Measured Value.

    • Measured Value. The average utilization over the most recent Measured Interval minutes.

    • State. The current state of the threshold. The state can be:

      • Unknown. Indicates that the number of utilization samples available is less than the Threshold Interval.

      • Normal. Indicates that sufficient utilization samples are available, and the Measured Value is less than or equal to the Threshold Value.

      • Exceeded. Indicates that sufficient utilization samples are available, and the Measured Value is greater than the Threshold Value.
