Can anyone help?
I have a (theoretical) cluster of 11 identical hosts, and with host rules they are split for licensing purposes, 5 for Windows and 5 for Linux plus one dedicated failover host (licensed for both, just in case!). The rules are set to 'must' and all VM's are in one of the two groups.
The average usage is around 50% CPU and 50% memory and everything, from a cluster level, looks fine (if a little underutilised...).
However, we have an imbalance of VM's and thus both the CPU and memory utilisation of the Windows hosts is over 90% each, yet the Linux hosts is below 10%.
Does vRealise recognise the host rules?
Would it understand the host rules when (and if) it tries to balance the workload?
Would we be able to see this from a cluster level?
Many thanks in advance,
Andy
