Re: Dashboards - Custom UI - VM Utilization

Basically yes - I cannot envision a user activity that doesn't create at least some CPU activity.

 

However this view might not contain all of the unused VMs. You might have a VM that is not used but have some scheduled job (example: antivirus) that creates some CPU activity and prevents the VM for entering the Idle VM list.

 

What I would recommend is:

1. For VMs in Powered Off list - most obvious candidates for deletion.

2. For VMs in the Idle VMs list - most obvious candidates for power off. Then in a month you can do another loop and delete again more VMs.

 

Thanks,

Alex D.
