vOPS Server Explorer 5.1 (VKernel's free tool suite) introduces improvements to existing utilities, and a new utility, Environment Explorer, which uses the same analytics and advisory engine from the paid vOPS Server Standard product to provide virtual administrators with a rapid assessment of the state of their environment. Specifically, Environment Explorer allows system administrators to:
- Identify critical VM configuration errors such as memory limits and old snapshots that will severely affect performance and can be especially hard to track down and solve
- Recognize performance bottlenecks from high CPU ready, memory swapping, device latency and other causes
- Detect inefficiency/waste created by VMs with CPU, memory and storage over allocation
- Find available capacity expressed as the number of VMs that can be deployed without causing performance bottlenecks
- Pinpoint oversubscription of CPU, memory and storage resources and whether the over-allocation is impacting performance
