Virtual machine sprawl is already causing numerous capacity bottlenecks in many data centers. Therefore, it is essential to quickly identify current capacity issues and resolve them as soon as possible. Once you can accomplish this, you can do the same thing with future bottlenecks and thus stay ahead of the problem and prevent a situation in which you will run out of capacity. In this white paper, VKernel discusses a formula for ensuring that you won’t run into these problems. In fact if, you closely monitor resource availability you will create a very stable environment and prove to your users that virtualization is ready for prime time.
