To generate a graph of the historic performance of CPU, memory, and disk

utilization, click Consumption at the bottom of the Capacity Planning module.

The utilization graph shows the actual consumed capacity of the resources within

the Resource Container.

The Consumption view consists of two parts:

l The large graphs show the historic values, and a best fit line.

l The table below the graph contains the calculated dates when each

resource hits certain thresholds based on their current course and speed.

The table contains the following information for each resource:

l Warn at: The utilization percentage when a warning will be raised.

l Warning Date: The date when the metrics will reach the Warn at threshold.

l Out at: The utilization percentage when the resource is considered to be

out.

l Outage Date: The date when the metrics will reach the Out at threshold.

Note: You can configure both the Warn at and Out at thresholds in the Capacity

Manager. For more information, see Advanced options.

To return to the Capacity Planning summary page, click Summary in the lower

right.

How much more can I add?

Based on your current host resources, Virtualization Manager can analyze how

many more virtual machines can be added to your virtual infrastructure. To

perform this analysis, define a resource container with the hosts in consideration,

and define a usage profile containing VMs that are representative of the new VMs

you want to add.

To analyze how many more VMs you can add:

1. Load a resource container in the Capacity Planning module. The resources

contained within the specific container are considered during the analysis.
