ComputeCapacity

The administrative view of a ComputeCapacity element includes two elements: IsElastic and IsHa, that an
administrator can change. These elements are not visible in the user view.

Cpu
Unlike the Cpu element that appears in the ComputeCapacity of a Vdc, the Cpu element that appears in the
ComputeCapacity of a ProviderVdc is an instance of ProviderVdcCapacityType. It defines the CPU
capacity that can be allocated from a vDC and optionally reports how much of that capacity is in use.

Unlike the Memory element that appears in the ComputeCapacity of a Vdc, the Memory element that appears
in the ComputeCapacity of a ProviderVdc is an instance of ProviderVdcCapacityType. It defines the
memory capacity that can be allocated from a vDC and optionally reports how much of that capacity is in use.

Max Type Description
1 xs:string Units in which the capacity is measured. For CPU devices, this is always
Megahertz, represented by the string MHz.
1 xs:long Number of Units that have been allocated to consumers
1 xs:long Maximum number of Units that can be allocated to all consumers
1 xs:long Percentage of the allocation in use. This value is read‐only.
1 xs:long Number of Units allocated to vShield Manager virtual machines provisioned
from this vDC. This value is read‐only.
Max Type Description
1 xs:string Specifies the units in which the capacity is measured. For storage devices, this is
always Megabytes, represented by the string MB.
1 xs:long Number of Units that have been allocated to consumers
1 xs:long Maximum number of Units that can be allocated to all consumers
1 xs:long Percentage of the allocation in use. This value is read‐only.
1 xs:long Number of Units allocated to vShield Manager virtual machines provisioned
from this vDC. This value is read‐only.
Description
Container for Vdc objects that are
provisioned from this provider vDC.
True if this provider vDC is enabled
Container for NetworkPoolReference
objects that are provisioned from this
provider vDC
Description
Defines CPU capacity available in the provider vDC
Defines memory capacity available in the provider vDC
True if compute capacity can grow or shrink based on demand
True if compute capacity is highly available.
