Description of problem: In the Dashboard we can find this parameters: Over commit: 11% (allocated 33%) in CPU/Memory/Storage. This parameters are not clear- what's their meaning and how they are calculated. This parameters should be more clear, we can choose better titles / add a tooltip to show the calculation or rethink if we need all this values. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): oVirt Engine Version: 4.1.0-0.0.master.20161120231325.gitba51756.el7.centos
Moran - any thoughts on that?
(In reply to Oved Ourfali from comment #1) > Moran - any thoughts on that? yes, the requirements are listed on the requirement doc. over commit - should represent the pysical resources allocated for running vms. allocated - is the total physical resources allocated in the system for vms running or not- how much physical resources will be used if we'll run all the vms in the system. the one thing that might be misleading here is the use of "overcommit" when there isn't actually resources overcommitment. we should probably change the use of it to virtualized resources committed and allocated. thoughts?
Can you phrase something to be put on tooltip?
(In reply to Oved Ourfali from comment #3) > Can you phrase something to be put on tooltip? I can suggest: Virtual resources - Committed: XXX% Allocated: XXX% I think it would make more sense.
I updated the display text on the global utilization cards as suggested. I also added a tooltip as originally suggested in the requirements doc. The tooltip currently reads, "The committed and allocated virtual resources are percentages indicating the running virtual resource compared to actual resources."
Verified in ovirt-engine-4.2.1.2-0.1.el7.noarch ovirt-engine-dashboard-1.2.1-1.el7ev.noarch The bottom text on each utilization card is now "Virtual resources - Committed: X%, Allocated: Y%". Hovering over it shows tooltip with text "The committed and allocated virtual resources are percentages indicating the running virtual resource compared to actual resources.". See attached screenshot.
Created attachment 1383500 [details] screen: Dashboard - utilization card text & tooltip improved
