I have a ESX server with nine virtual machines running, some are in production, some for development.
Those machines are Windows & Linux.
Vmware has a tools called Virtual Center, where you can see the trace of the use of memory, processors, network packets in/out.
I put in the virtual machines the client and I saw a different values in the charts.
Talking about memory the Virtual Center says 620M granted and 138M active and hobbit says:
Memory Used Total Pctg green Physical: 477M 619M 77% green Virtual: 37M 2047M 1% green Page: 598M 1361M 43%
I thinks from the OS view memeory is used if its allocated for some proc, Vmware needs to allocate it only if something is writen to it. Hence the difference.
Now CPU Virtual Center says use 7% guarantee 13% and hobbit says up: 2 days, 0 users, 36 procs, load=5% May be th 2% are the overhead vmware produces.
How can I get a precision value to have a real report of the resource use of this virtual machine?
