Using the Capacity Remaining Badge Under the Risk Badge
The vCenter Operations Manager Capacity Remaining badge measures the number of additional virtual
machines that the object can handle before reaching capacity.
The remaining virtual machines count represents the number of virtual machines that can be deployed on
the selected object, based on the current amount of unused resources and the average virtual machine
profile for the last "n" weeks. The remaining virtual machines count is a function of the same compute
resources of CPU, Mem, Disk I/O, Net I/O, and Disk Space that are used to calculate the Time Remaining
score.
vCenter Operations Manager calculates the Capacity Remaining score as a percentage of the remaining
virtual machines count compared to the total number of virtual machines that can be deployed on the
selected object.
The Capacity Remaining score ranges between 0 (bad) and 100 (good). The badge changes its color based on
the badge score thresholds that are set by the vCenter Operations Manager administrator.
