Hi, I don't know... I see every morning that this calculation is always in progress. At 10:00 AM o' clock, for example, it's 25/27%... The job starts every night at 1:00 o' clock. Thanks Matrix

The only suggestion I'd have is use the Top-N and set a very large period of analysis.. that'd give yo the value you're seeking, but not the widget style you expected. Otherwise, there is no way to...

If you look beyond the CPU and Mem, you're going to 'likely' hit a Disk IO limitation as your next bottleneck. At your current metric collection levels, assuming 5min collection is still used...
View ArticleRemediate Oversized VM with Limits?
So I've been letting Operations Manager run for several months and now I'd like to remediate the Oversized VMs. I see several VMs with 8GB or 16GB of memory, but vCOPS is recommending 1GB of memory....
View ArticleRe: Remediate Oversized VM with Limits?
I think that would be a very bad idea, the OS and the applications does not know anything about the limits and if the vm goes over the limit it will use the vm swapfile on disk for memory. // Linjo
View ArticleRe: Remediate Oversized VM with Limits?
To start, I understand what you're suggesting using limits as a way of artificially limited memory consumption, however I would like to remind you that there is a notable performance hit to applying a...

Can I use vCOps to see how many VMs were created in a previous month?
View ArticleRe: Viewing provisioning statistics in vCOps
There are tags that allow you to sort by "recently added resources" tags. This includes a tag for "last 30 days", which would give you the last month. Create a widget, use that tag filter, then also...
View ArticleRe: Viewing provisioning statistics in vCOps
OK thanks. - but what if I want vms created from november 1st to november 30th and today is january 13th? Am I limited to the "last 30 days" from the current day?
View ArticleRe: Viewing provisioning statistics in vCOps
You're limited to filtering the past 30 days from this exact moment going back 30 days. You can actually predefine a period for a resource list-style widget. There are other widget where it is possible...
View ArticleRename esxi host from IP address to DNS name in OPS Manager?
Hello, If a host was added to vCenter by IP address and OPS manager installed but later the host was removed and added back with the DNS name, is there a way in OPS manager to "rename" the instance to...
View ArticleRe: Rename esxi host from IP address to DNS name in OPS Manager?
If that host has a new uuid within VC (which should be the case), vcops will forget the old object and discover the new one.Unfortunately there is no simple way of reattaching historical data from one...
View ArticleRe: Rename esxi host from IP address to DNS name in OPS Manager?
It depends what you mean by 'removed'. If it is removed from vCenter, when it is readded to vCenter it'll get a new unique ID and thus a new resourcewithin vC Ops. If the VM or Host System instance is...
View ArticleRe: Rename esxi host from IP address to DNS name in OPS Manager?
Let me clarify. Originally when the ESXi hosts were added/connected to vCenter they were added under their IP addresses and would show up as such. IP addresses aren't the best descriptor so the hosts...
View ArticleRe: Rename esxi host from IP address to DNS name in OPS Manager?
You're actually doing the more volatile option, remove, instead of the temporary disconnect. If you disconnected instead, they would have stayed sync'd up wth vC Ops and kept the same vCenter uuid. I'm...
View ArticleRe: Rename esxi host from IP address to DNS name in OPS Manager?
My understanding was that if an ESXi host is connected to vCenter as the IP address then the only way to effectively rename it is my removing it and adding it back using the DNS name instead. Is that...

HI Mark.j, thank you for your suggestions! We have opened an SR to VMware.... However, it seems that the problem is related to ESX where vCOPS is hosted (too "slow"). We must upgrade them and modify...
