Metric Key Metric Name Generated for Description
optimal.vConsumption.per.pConsumption Optimal
consumption
ratio
Provider Ratio of ideal resource consumption
to provision based on consumer
demand over time. Ideal resource
consumption is when the current
capacity satises demand. Time is a
policy seing. If not set, the default
period is 30 days.
vConsumption.per.pConsumption Consumption
ratio
Provider Ratio of current resource
consumption to provision based on
consumer demand.
object.demand Stress Free
Demand
Both Demand based on peak analysis of
raw demand values.
object.capacity Usable
Capacity
Both Total capacity minus buers.
Capacity buer is a policy seing.
object.demand.percent Eective
Demand (%)
Both Percent capacity required by eective
demand.
powered.on.consumer.count Number of
powered on
consumers
Both Number of consumers that are using
a resource.
base.demand Computed
Demand
Both Demand for an object based on self or
consumer demand without the peak
consideration policy seing.
actual.capacity Current size Both Actual capacity without buers
wastePercent Reclaimable
Capacity (%)
Both Percent of reclaimable capacity based
on consumer demand over time. Time
is a policy seing. If not set, the
default period is 30 days. For
example, if a vSphere host is
congured with 10 GB of memory but
only 2 GB of memory is used on
average over 30 days, then
wastePercent = 80%.
Object-level Metrics Group
Object-level metrics are calculated to track capacity use for all objects of a particular object type.
Table 1‑89. Object-level Metrics Group
Metric Key Metric Name Description
summary|timeRemaining Time Remaining Time remaining before usable capacity
runs out. Usable capacity excludes
capacity reserved for HA and buers.
summary|isStress Is Stressed Value equals 1 or a yellow badge
indicates that an object is stressed.
Value equals 0 or a green badge
indicates that the object is not stressed.
For a stress badge dened in a policy,
when the stress exceeds the lowest
threshold, the badge color changes
from green to yellow.
summary|capacityRemainingValue Capacity Remaining
Value
Capacity remaining.
