Reporting VMhost CPu and memory Over Subscription ?

Post by albertwt »

Using VeeamONE monitor v 6.5, is it possible to get the report of which VMhost is currently having problem with vCPU and vRAM over-subscription ?

how to do that in order to drill down the problem related to vCPU and vRAM issue.

Thanks

Hello Albert,

The information can be found in the Allocation Ratio widget under VMware Infrastructure dashboard of Veeam One Reporter.

You can also create your own Allocation Ratio widget with a desired scope.
To do that click "+", means "add widget", than choose "VMware general information" widget pack > pick "Allocation Ration" widget, specify scope and other parameters.

You might find "Over-provisioned Datastores" report useful too.

Thanks.

Albert, I believe it should be available for v6.5 as well.
But as far as you probably know v6.5 is not under support anymore and we recommend all users to make an update.
Moreover there are number of new features in newer releases.

Ok, so I'm in the Widget configuration page using Veeam ONE v8.0 see below;

I cannot click on finish and the scope is not showing anything when clicked.

Do you have any infrastructure servers added to the Veeam ONE console? What about latest job session in the configuration tab? Is it successful?

Hi Vitaliy,

Sorry I'm still newbie here. How to add the servers to the VeeamONE console ?
I assume that all VM can be queried through VCenter server.

Albert, That`s fine, don`t hesitate to ask.
You just need to open Veeam One Monitor and click "Add Server" icon on the top of the screen to open the corresponding wizard.
Thanks.

Ah yes, I'm back to use this wonderful software again with my new company after moving on from my previous one with Veeam v6. So yes I must've forgot them all how to use the Veeam Monitor.

So, do I need to add the VM manually one by one everytime I have deployed new VM in the Vsphere data center ?

Welcome back, Albert! :D
You just need to add vCenter server once to have all its infrastructure in all parts of Veeam One (Monitor, Reporter, Business view).
Once you deploy a new VM under the monitored vCenter, it`ll automatically appear in Veeam One.
Thanks!
