Understanding CPU Metrics in ControlUp
The group discussed the discrepancies between the CPU percentage on a single host and the "Host CPU Usage" column for all VMs on that host. The data for the host level comes from the hypervisor platform, while per-VM CPU comes from the ControlUp agent on the Windows OS. It was mentioned that the console is not effective for comparing data due to potential performance issues. The behavior of the host CPU reaching 100% and the VMs not going higher was deemed expected. It was clarified that the host CPU in the "Machine view host CPU" column refers to the CPU utilization by the VM as reported by the hypervisor API. The monitoring intervals for the agent and API may also result in different reported numbers.
