Performance tabs metric confusion

[sammyvvv]

Hello chaps,

Can I get some confirmation on what exactly the performance dials for memory is showing. Whether it is actual memory being active allocated or consumed? I have noticed that are middle dial is slowly creeping up to red and just wanted to confirm exactly the metric it uses.

Hope this makes sense guys

Hi Sam,

For virtual machines we show memory usage which is calculated using this formula (percentage of configured virtual machine “physical” memory):

Code: Select all

active / virtual machine configured size 

And this is for hosts (percentage of available machine memory):

Code: Select all

consumed / machine memory size

For all other top level objects we use consumed memory counter.

Hope this helps!
