If larger than 0 hosts is forcing VMs to inflate balloon driver to reclaim memory as host is overcommited. VM waiting on swapped pages to be read from disk. If larger than 0 the world is being throttled due to the limit on CPU. The percentage of time the vCPU was ready to run but deliberately wasn’t scheduled because that would violate the “CPU limit” settings. This should lead to increased scheduling opportunities. Decrease amount of vCPUs for this particular VM. 10% is per world!Įxcessive usage of vSMP. If you have many vCPUs than per vCPU may be low and this may not be an issue. Overprovisioning of vCPUs, excessive usage of vSMP or a limit(check %MLMTD) has been set. Note that you will need to expand the VM Group to see how this is distributed across vCPUs. Other global IO worlds that are not exclusively used by a VM continue to be charged via %SYS. now also include device worlds (network / scsi adapter), whereas in earlier versions they would be part of the system resource pool and their CPU utilization would be charged to the VM via %SYS, they are now “part” of the VM (and subsequently %RUN). On CPU also in 6.5, sched groups for Virtual Machines, i.e. above 100 indicates usage of Turbo Boost, below frequency scaling of some sorts (P / T-States etc.). This indicates the frequency of the CPU with regards to its nominal / base frequency, i.e. For instance, in the “power mgmt” view (p), the field %A/MPERF was added (“actual/measured performance”). Please comment and help build the main source for esxtop thresholds.įor vSphere 6.5 there are various different metrics added. I used VMworld presentations, VMware whitepapers, VMware documentation, VMTN Topics, and of course my own experience as a source and these are the metrics and thresholds I came up with so far. You can add fields to an esxtop view by clicking “f” on followed by the corresponding character. Please keep in mind that these should only be used as a guideline when doing performance troubleshooting! Also, be aware that some metrics are not part of the default view. There are many people reading these articles, together we must know at least a dozen metrics lets collect and document them with possible causes if known. I want to use this article to “define” these thresholds, but I need your help. For instance, it must be safe to say that when %RDY constantly exceeds the value of 20 it is very likely that the VM responds sluggishly. There must be a certain threshold, however. I fully understand that it is not black/white, performance is the perception of a user in the end. Something I, however, am always struggling with is the “thresholds” of specific metrics. I am a huge fan of esxtop! I used to read a couple of pages of the esxtop bible every day before I went to bed, not anymore as the doc is unfortunately outdated (yes I have requested an update various times.). This page is solely dedicated to one of the best tools in the world for ESXi: esxtop.
