Virtual storage chart
Virtual ssorage is the measurement of virtual storage capacity that is in use.
Turbonomic collects virtual storage data from VMs discovered by on-prem and APM targets. When you set the scope to one or several VMs, the data that Turbonomic collected displays in the Virtual Storage chart.
The chart shows average and peak/low values over time. Use the selector on the chart to change the time frame.
An empty chart could be the result of delayed discovery, target validation failure, unavailable data for the given time frame, or an unsupported entity (see the next section for a list of supported entities).
Supported entities
Data is available in the Virtual Storage chart for entities discovered via the following targets:
| Target type | Target | Supported entities |
|---|---|---|
| Database | MySQL | Virtual machine |
| Oracle | Virtual machine | |
| SQL | Virtual machine | |
| Fabric | HPE OneView | Virtual machine |
| Guest OS Process | SNMP | Virtual machine |
| WMI | Virtual machine | |
| Hyperconverged | HyperFlex | Virtual machine |
| Nutanix | Virtual machine | |
| Hypervisor | Hyper-V | Virtual machine |
| vCenter | Virtual machine |
Virtual storage actions
Turbonomic can recommend the following virtual storage actions:
-
Move a VM's volume (virtual storage) due to excess utilization of the current datastore, or for more efficient utilization of datastores in the environment.
-
Reconfigure a VM's volume (virtual storage) to comply with placement policies.
