• When any VM has a CPU Ready time of over 20% and the host CPU utilization is also over 90%, it signals CPU overcommitment & would need addition of CPU or VMotion enabling
  • More than 1MB/s of swap in or swap out rate signals memory overcommitment
  • From an EMA benchmark report, average performing enterprises had physical CPU utilization of 45% while best performing enterprises had this at 70%. Where do you stand?

The above were just a few “rule of thumb” points and VMware metric descriptions that were covered in our webinar titled “VMware Performance Monitoring – the Must Haves”. The presentation that was used for the webinar is embedded below.
