running virtual machine.

capacity that the virtual machine used in the previous minute.
• The minimum, maximum and average amount of GSX Server host memory that
the virtual machine used in the previous minute.

• The status of VMware Tools — whether VMware Tools is installed and running.
• The average percentage of heartbeats received by a virtual machine during the
previous minute. See Monitoring the Virtual Machine’s Heartbeat on page 128.
