Info

VM Average ballooning Memory Reclaimed
OpsLogix.IMP.VMWare.Monitoring.Rule.Perf.VirtualMachine.mem.vmmemctl.average

Amount of guest physical memory that is currently reclaimed from the virtual machine through ballooning. This is the amount of guest physical memory that has been allocated and pinned by the balloon driver. The sum of all vmmemctl values for all powered-on virtual machines, plus vSphere services on the host. If the balloon target value is greater than the balloon value, the VMkernel inflates the balloon, causing more virtual machine memory to be reclaimed. If the balloon target value is less than the balloon value, the VMkernel deflates the balloon, which allows the virtual machine to consume additional memory if needed.

Info

VM Average Zeroed Memory
OpsLogix.IMP.VMWare.Monitoring.Rule.Perf.VirtualMachine.mem.zero.average

The amount of zero pages in the guest. Zero pages are not represented in machine memory so this results in 100% savings when mapping from the guest to the machine memory.

Info

VM Average Common Shared Memory
OpsLogix.IMP.VMWare.Monitoring.Rule.Perf.VirtualMachine.mem.sharedcommon.average

Amount of machine memory that is shared by all powered-on virtual machines and vSphere services on the host. Subtract this metric from the shared metric to gauge how much machine memory is saved due to sharing: shared - sharedcommon = machine memory (host memory) savings (KB)

Info

VM Average Swapped Memory
OpsLogix.IMP.VMWare.Monitoring.Rule.Perf.VirtualMachine.mem.swapped.average

Current amount of guest physical memory swapped out to the virtual machine's swap file by the VMkernel. Swapped memory stays on disk until the virtual machine needs it. This statistic refers to VMkernel swapping and not to guest OS swapping. swapped = swapin + swapout

Info

VM Average Swap Target Memory
OpsLogix.IMP.VMWare.Monitoring.Rule.Perf.VirtualMachine.mem.swaptarget.average

Amount of memory available for swapping. Target size for virtual machine swap file, as calculatd by the VMkernel. The VMkernel uses values for this metric with the swap metric to stop and start swapping, as follows: -If swaptarget greater than swapped, the VMkernel can start swapping when necessary.-If swaptarget less than swapped, the VMkernel stops swapping memory. Since swapped memory stays swapped until the virtual machine accesses it, swapped memory can be greater than the memory swap target, possibly for a prolonged period of time. This simply means that the swapped memory is not currently needed by the virtual machine and is not a cause for concern.

Info

VM Average Swapin Memory
OpsLogix.IMP.VMWare.Monitoring.Rule.Perf.VirtualMachine.mem.swapin.average.absolute

Refers to VMkernel swapping. Amount swapped-in to memory from disk. Total amount of data that has been read into machine memory from the swap file since the virtual machine was powered on.

Amount of memory swapped-out to disk. Total amount of data that the VMkernel has written to the virtual machines swap file from machine memory. This statistic refers to VMkernel swapping and not to guest OS swapping.

Info

VM Average VMKernel Target Memory
OpsLogix.IMP.VMWare.Monitoring.Rule.Perf.VirtualMachine.mem.vmmemctltarget.average

Target value set by VMkernal for the virtual machines memory balloon size. In conjunction with vmmemctl metric, this metric is used by VMkernel to inflate and deflate the balloon for a virtual machine, as follows: - If vmmemctltarget greater than vmmemctl, VMkernel can inflate the balloon and make machine memory currently consumed by the virtual machine available to other virtual machines on the host. (Size of vmmemctl increases as balloon inflates.) -If vmmemctltarget less than vmmemctl, VMkernel deflates balloon so that virtual machine can consume more memory, when needed. (Size of vmmemctl decreases as balloon deflates.)
