Measures reported by NutClusStatusTest

To ascertain the needs of the infrastructure and to determine whether/not additional resources need to be added to the prism to handle their current and anticipated load, Nutanix administrators should keep track on the available resources on the prism. This visibility is provided through the Prism Overview test. This test reports the count of clusters, storage pools, VMs, containers, hosts and controller VMs available in the prism. In the process, this test also pinpoints those VMs that are currently powered on and powered off.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for the Nutanix Acropolis Prism being monitored.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
NUM_CLUSTERS Indicates the total number of clusters in the prism. Number The detailed diagnosis of this measure lists the names of the clusters.

NUM_CONTAINER Indicates the total number of containers available in the prism. Number The detailed diagnosis of this measure lists the names of the containers.
NUM_HOSTS Indicates the total number of hosts on the prism. Number The detailed diagnosis of this measure reveals the host name, IP address, and type of the host, and the cluster name.
NUM_VMS Indicates the total number of virtual machines in the prism. Number Use the detailed diagnosis of this measure to know the names, IP address, and operating system of the VMs in the prism and which host each VM runs on.
NUM_ONVMS Indicates the number of VMs in the prism that are currently powered on. Number The detailed diagnosis of this measure lists the name, IP address, and operating system of the VMs that are currently powered on, and which host each VM runs on.
NUM_OFFVMS Indicates the number of VMs in the prism that are currently powered off. Number The detailed diagnosis of this measure lists the name, IP address, and operating system of the VMs that are currently powered off, and which host each VM runs on.
NUM_CLTR_VMS Indicates the number of controller VMs available in the prism. Number The detailed diagnosis of this measure lists the name, IP address, and operating system of the CVMs, and which host each CVM runs on.
