Type: Built-In
Description: This report displays the CPU count, CPU usage, power, and energy that is consumed by the
virtual machines that are monitored in Power Manager.
Advantages: The benefit of this Report is that you get a consolidated report of CPU count, CPU usage,
power, and energy consumption of all the virtual machines that are monitored in Power Manager for a report
duration and granularity configured in Power Manager settings.
Using this consolidated report, you can do further statistical analysis of all the virtual machines data using a
single report.
Below is a snippet of a sample report run:
