Note that there is a button on the right-hand side of the screen labelled ‘import info’, this enables after a VMware tools import. Using this method means that those VMs will still be included in the capacity total even if it is at the provisioned level. If a VM does not have VMware tools install and running, they will not appear in the vPartition tab.

Each of the VMs that are in the vInfo tab are compared with the vPartition where this is a match the capacity figure is updated with the used capacity.

Each VM’s partition capacity is added together.

The logged in version is based on, where possible, the used capacity at a VM level. The result of this is that the capacity figure that is used for the non-logged in is based on provisioned capacity. If you are logged in then the following tabs are used: These figures are taken from the ‘vInfo’ worksheet if you are not logged into the tool. RvTools is a widely used tool available from which can quickly and easily gather on a VMware environment. The add workload page is broken into three sections To add a workload press ‘new’ on the workloads page, this will bring up the ‘add workload’ form/page. The VSE allows for an unlimited quantity of workloads to be added. Note: the growth added to servers and capacity in the calculation is linear not exponential. The VSE also assumes that Veeam Backup & Replication will manage all Agent backups. Agent backups do not contribute to the total proxy resource requirements. For example, you may have servers with different retention or change rate requirements. This allows for servers with different requirements to be added to the same estimation. Info - provides information on how to use the toolĪ workload defines a common set of requirements that need to be applied to a number of VMs or Agents (servers).Details - is where you can see an overview of all the workloads and a repository capacity breakdown.Object - is where you can estimate object capacity and transaction costs.Workloads - is where workloads are added to the estimation.Dashboard - shows the results of the estimation.
