Understanding the Data

Understanding VM CPU Demand

VM CPU Demand is high…what next? Examine Details page

• Look at Demand, Usage and Entitlement

Demand > Usage and Demand > Entitlement

• What does it mean: CPU contention caused by Population pressure

• What should you do: MOVE SOMETHING!

Understanding VM CPU Demand

2. Demand > Usage and Demand < Entitlement

• Break down demand into its components and use All Metrics tab

• Idle – Idle is high compared to the other metrics

• What does it mean: Hypervisor is properly taxing the machine since the idle loop is running

• What should you do: Do nothing…all is well

Difference Between Similar Metrics from different sources

vCenter vs. vC Ops vs. Guest OS metric vs. Others

• First issue is Time Resolution (collection sample periods will affect the output!)

Difference Between Similar Metrics

vCenter vs. vC Ops vs. Guest OS metric vs. Others

• Second Issue is Actual Metric

• What is the right metric for managing resources?

Memory in vSphere and vCenter Operations Manager

Demand vs. Usage

• What it wants vs. what it got?

• What use case for Usage and Demand?
