These properties reflect total Provisioned Storage (GB), rather than Used Storage (GB), unless you have set an advanced system property. Contact support@snowsoftware.com for more information. vCenter and SCVMM only. |
|
Indicates whether a VM is a virtual machine or template. |
|
See How disk space values are calculated for vCenter VMs below. The difference between the virtual disk space (VMDK) and the physical disk space. If the VM hasn't been scanned or if VMware Tools aren't installed, the value is unknown. |
|
Disk space that's not divided into isolated sections. See How disk space values are calculated for vCenter VMs below. |
|
The time since the VM was last powered on. Uptime is reset when the VM is powered off, when the VM's power is reset, or when the VM is resumed from a suspended state. A Revert Snapshot event also resets the uptime value. If the snapshot is powered on, uptime is reset to the current time. If the snapshot is powered off, the VM is powered off. Uptime values aren't affected by events such as a guest OS reboot, VMware Tools heartbeats and host and datastore migration. For VMs that were powered on when the cloud account was added to Commander, uptime statistics are more accurate the further back in time you retrieve historical events. Notes for vCenter VMs: 1) Commander uptime values don't depend on information retrieved from VMware, due to limitations in VMware's uptime calculations. 2) Uptime won't be reset to 0 for a VM that's reverted to a running snapshot while Commander is disconnected from the cloud account. |
|
The total used storage, in GB, currently present in the VM's datastores, including all logs, snapshots, configuration files and other files. For thin-provisioned disks, the current size of the files reflects the size of the data consumed by the VM, instead of the expected provisioned size. The difference between Provisioned Storage (GB) and Used Storage is significant for thin-provisioned disks. Because additional files are created for snapshots, the number of snapshots affects this value. |
|
The total expected size of all disks when they are fully provisioned. This value doesn't include swap memory, memory overhead space, or any other storage-related files. |
|
The total size of all virtual disk-related files, including all logs, snapshots, configuration files and other files. For thick-provisioned disks, this value may be greater than the provisioned size. For thin-provisioned disks, the value may be less than the provisioned size. Because additional files are created for snapshots, the number of snapshots affects this value. |
|
The VM's parent vApp. vCenter and Microsoft Azure only. |
|
The version of VMware Tools (for vCenter) or Guest Integration Services (for SCVMM). |
|
The version status of VMware Tools (for vCenter) or Guest Integration Services (for SCVMM). |
|
If the VM is a vRouter providing fencing for VMs in a fenced network, indicates the vLAN number. |
|
The name of the VPC (Virtual Private Cloud). AWS only. |
|
Indicates whether the VM is a vRouter for a fenced network (Yes or No). |
