Custom Report - All VMs by Host With Summary

_chrisb_ over 5 years ago

Hello all,

I'm trying to create a report to list all VM guests, grouped by the VM host they are currently on.

I've managed to do this by grouping the table by Virtual Host - Host Name. So far each host it simply shows the Host Name.

What I would like to do is to have a header for each Host, so I can show the CPU Count, RAM etc in the host. In a footer, I'd like to count the CPUs / RAM allocated to the guests.

Is this something that will need SWQL?

Thanks,

Chris.

You could create a custom table looking at the Virtual Host to show the Host-specific information on its own in a table and just position it above your existing Virtual Machine report.
This is just roughly, but something like this?

Thanks David.
That would be one way to do it, though not ideal as on a bigger report you'd need to keep flipping back to the first table to see the host details. Could you count the total VM resources assigned for each host?

What stats exactly do you want to see?

Header for each host would ideally show the name, hypervisor, CPU core count and RAM. Then each guest VM running on that host - name, OS, vCPUs and RAM assigned, finishing with a summary footer to show the totals for vCPU and RAM.
