When monitoring a VM's performance, which two badges in vRealize Operations should be checked for resource contention?

  1. Health > Faults and Risk > Stress

  2. Health > Workload and Risk > Time Remaining

  3. Health > Workload and Risk > Stress

  4. Health > Faults and Risk > Time Remaining

The correct answer is: Health > Workload and Risk > Stress

When monitoring a VM's performance for resource contention in vRealize Operations, focusing on the health and workload badges is crucial. The choice regarding health and workload provides insight into the current state of resource utilization and indicates whether the VM is over-committed. The workload badge reflects the demand placed on the VM’s resources compared to what is provisioned. If the workload is high relative to the resources available, this can indicate resource contention, signaling that the VM may not be performing optimally due to insufficient resources being allocated to meet its demands. The stress badge evaluates how much additional load the VM can handle before performance degradation occurs. High stress levels reveal that the VM is under considerable demand and may be nearing its capacity limits. Therefore, by closely monitoring the health and workload badges alongside the risk assessment regarding stress, administrators can effectively identify and address resource contention issues before they impact performance significantly. This proactive approach is vital in maintaining the optimal functioning of virtual environments.
