Determine the use of vCPU using PowerCLI

Is there a way to determine how many vCPUs uses makes it a virtual machine using PowerCLI?  For example, suppose you try to size just your virtual machines with powerCLI.  If the virtual machine uses several threads, it can use the multiple vCPUs.  If it is mono-thread, it can only use one vCPU even if she has a high workload.  You can determine what virtual machines have multiple vCPUs but use less than they are allocated?

As much as I know there is no meter that indicates if a core is used or not.

What you could do, is the use of the CPU, and then check if the assigned processors are required.

For example, suppose that the average CPU usage is 25%, and the maximum is 50%.

If this VM has 4 processors assigned, you may deduct 2 CPUs would be sufficient.

But this isn't an accurate calculation.

Once you lower the processors assigned to the virtual machine, you will need to see if there's an obvious increase of the ready time.

  • Determine the use of the instance

    We have a replicated environment up and running, was designed to provide a location for performing low priority queries in order to discharge this load on one server other than the database of production.

    I am asked to determine how often and to what extent, this database is used. Essentially, if it is grossly underutilized, we seek to get rid of it, or find another solution. Is there a common approach for the collection of these types of settings? Should I be poking around in OEM for that? Or, should I be building something that periodically seizes the usage information and stores it in an array?

  • PowerCLI script to display the number of vCPU by VMhost use

    Hi all

    I'm looking to get help here with powerCLI script to list each total number of ESXi vCPU host that is used to determine if there are any ESXi host CPU is more engaged.

    According to suggestion of performance in some blog vExpert, is around 1: 3 of Jepp core ratio: vCPU allocated, then how to display the report with the powerCLI for something like this:

    PRODESXi01
    Total of nuclei available: 32
    Used by the virtual machine: 28

    PRODESXi02
    Total of nuclei available: 32
    Used by the virtual machine: 38

    So according to the result above, the PRODESXi02 is more committed by 6vCPU allocated to the virtual machine.

    Note: The available total carrots is taken from the value of logical processors from the contents tab, when you click on the vSphere console.

    How to get this report using PowerCLI?

    Thank you

    You mean something like this?

    {Foreach ($esx in Get-VMHost)

    $vCPU = get-VM-location $esx | Measure-object-property NumCpu-sum | Select - ExpandProperty sum

    $esx | Select Name,@{N='pCPU'; E={$_. NumCpu}},

    @{N = 'vCPU'; E = {$vCPU}},

    @{N = "Ratio"; E = {[math]: Round ($vCPU / $_.)} (NumCpu, 1)}}

  • Need help to report on the configurations of the virtual machine using PowerCLI

    Hi guys,.

    I try to shoot down vCenter virtual computer configuration details and am not having much luck with vCPU multicore machines.

    Looking at the lists of VMS in vSphere Client, it offers a column "Number of CPU" basis and does not include any other granularity (i.e. in terms of casings & carrots as opposed to simply 'CPU Count').

    I thought that maybe I have better luck using PowerCLI and essentially, the cmdlet "Get - VM" has the kind of information I'm looking for, but I find that it lacks a bit when it comes to vCPU details.  Essentially, it turns out that does not do much better than the list of virtual machines in vSphere Client because it produces only a "CPU Num" value, which is not particularly useful.

    For example, if "processors Num" 4, that '4' means?  This could mean one of the following:

    • 1 x 4 drivers
    • Core 2 x 2
    • Basic 4 x 1

    I hope someone out there can help produce me a list of virtual machines with details of configuration that includes both sockets & carrots for vCPU?

    Thanks in advance!

    Try like this

    Get-VM | Select Name, @{N="CPU";E={$_.ExtensionData.Config.hardware.numCPU/$_.ExtensionData.Config.hardware.numCoresPerSocket}}, @{N="Core per CPU";E={$_.ExtensionData.Config.hardware.numCoresPerSocket}}

  • How can I determine the type of image to be used before loading an image?

    I'm developing an application using VB 2005 which measures two 8-bit or 16-bit image files. When I saw the picture, I find that I have to set the type of image the image buffer before playback of the image in it. For example, if I read a 16-bit image in a buffer of 8 bits, the image is truncated. I guess I could read the image in a 16-bit buffer and retype it if the pixel values are less than 255.

    Is there a better way to do it? Can I determine the number of bits of an image before loading in a buffer?

    Thank you!

    Hi Steverino,

    Olivia is incorrect... VDM has a function called GetFileInfo which does just what you want. It only reads the header of the image but does not load the entire image in memory. It will give you various properties such as the bit depth.

    I think that on the new .NET support, there can exist here: NationalInstruments.Vision.Analysis.Algorithms.GetFileInformation.

    Thanks to the ICB and our legacy of .NET support, it's probably a similar name.

  • Determine the number of traditional DAQ hardware using Labview.

    Hello

    Anyone can answer the question:

    Regarding materials traditional DAQ, for example the DMM OR-4060, how

    can I programmatically determine the number of device which can be seen in MAX?

    With the help of Labview 8.5, I looked into the following function libraries:

    NOR-DMM

    VISA

    NOR-ModInst

    None of the libraries above seem to provide access the number of traditional DAQ hardware

    property, which is automatically assigned.

    Background:

    I have a 18 PXI chassis containing 2 DMM, in housing 3 and 14.

    The DMM may be a mixture of type OR-4060 or NOR-4070.

    The system is controlled by a Teststand sequence employing IVI - DMM

    steps.

    When you set the IVI logical name step, I am referring to IVI device defined Sessions

    Max - rutime determined.

    Labview VISA functions using I can determine the model, i.e. 4060 or 4070.

    Because the DMM just locate into the slots 3 or 14, then the devices NOR-4070

    are accessible using the following descriptors of resources: PXI1Slot3 or

    PXISlot14.

    (The 4070 is compatible DAQmX.)

    So for devices OR-4070, I can predefine 2 Sessions of IVI device, knowing

    It will be sufficient for all occasions, when I run my Teststand sequence, which will be

    determine what device session to use at run time.

    But I'm stuck for the NOR-4060.

    At the Session of the device, I have to give a descriptor of resource the following

    format: DAQ::x (where x is the device number)

    I could create device 18 sessions each reference to a different DAQ::x, but to select

    the good pair during execution, I would need to programmatically determine the device

    number, i.e. the value of x.

    Where my question.

    The closest I came to a solution was an entry of the Knowledge Base that said that the

    Assigned device number would be the same as the slot number, providing the

    Number of the device had not previously configured manually.

    Unfortunately, our device numbers have been changed manually and maybe in the future.

    All popular solutions.

    Gary.

    Hi Gary,.

    Good afternoon and I hope that your well today.

    Thanks for your post and I want to help you solve your problems.

    I don't think there is just a function that you can use to identify and collect information on all cards with your. For traditional DAQ devices in particular I suggest using the Information.vi of DAQ devices get.

    If you look at this link,

    SAL posted an example VI entitled, find dev trad.vi.

    You can get information such as serial number, Dev name and the Base address.

    The assistance of the respective drivers to collect information you could generate an array of strings with the information that you need all the slots.

    Please let me know if this is useful at all,

  • Determine the size of the container when using SizeUnit.PERCENT

    Hello

    How can I determine the width and height of a container, when I use the percentage of the size of the container?

    I have the following code, but this.width and this.height are both 0, causing the background sprite is not to demonstrate:

       public class HeaderContainer extends Container

            {
                with (_sprBackgroundColor)
                {
                    x = y = 0;
                    graphics.beginFill(0x0000FF, 1);
                    graphics.drawRect(0, 0, this.width, this.height);
                    graphics.endFill();
                }
                ...
            }
    

    Have you tried to call the initializeUI method after the container has been added to the scene? You can easily register a handler to do this.

  • Determine the NIF port used by the HEART when it is configured in a port channel

    I recently saw an excellent video of live Cisco UCS troubleshooting performance that showed how to track traffic network within Cisco UCS. The speaker made a comment however, to determine that NIF is used by a high HEAT when port-channels are used between the FEX and FI there are different commands to run. You will need to determine the outcome of hash-load balancing. Unfortunately, he never entered what were these commands.

    Then when we have pinned port-channel instead of HIFs and NIFs veths, what commands will indicate which way is used?

    Matt,

    You can use this command:

    B (nxos) # sh port-channel - balance load< this="" will="" tell="" you="" the="" load="" balance="" method="">

    If you use source-dest-ip as in my case, you can use this command:

    B (nxos) # sh port-channel - the balance of the charge-transfer interface port-channel ID vlan ID x.x.x.x y.y.y.y dst - ip, src - ip and it will show you something like this:

    Lack of params will be substituted by 0.

    Algorithm to balance the load on the switch: source-dest-ip
    crc8_hash: 109 port id coming out: EthernetX / Y  < this="" is="" what="" you="" are="" looking="" for="">
    Param (s) used to balance the load to calculate:
    DST - ip: y.y.y.y
    SRC - ip: x.x.x.x
    DST - mac: 0000.0000.0000
    CBC - mac: 0000.0000.0000

    For the blade, depends on which the active vNIC is, for the FEX, depends on pinning, based on the server is located in the blade slot.  Strange servers go through odd links and same servers through the same ports.

    Remember to rate helpful answers.

  • Way to the commands per second using PowerCLI

    You can use powerCLI for average orders per second of a virtual machine on a historical period in the same way, as you can with cpu.usagemhz.average?

    Just to clarify:

    Does

    datastore.numberreadaveraged.Average

    give me information on the entire data store connected to the virtual machine? Or is information specific to just the VM I comment on?

    (In this case, I'm eager to get all the IOPs for all all of the virtual disks connected to a specific virtual machine)

    It gives you the IOPS / s specific to entire virtual machine and not the data store.

    Also - I'm the zeros for my data when I launch the present.  I see in vSphere client commands per second only to the data in real time, not for the last day, week or year.  Is it because of my level settings statistics?

    Yes, vCenter 5.0 and place unfortunately don't collect statistics of e/s long term on a per-VM level more.

    However, you can still add these values to return to lower levels of statistics as described in this article:
