How It Works

Calculate the effective CPU performance loss from hypervisor steal time on VMs. Steal time % = CPU cycles requested by VM but not served by hypervisor due to other VM competition

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Hypervisor steal time on VMs — The hypervisor steal time on vms recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the cpu steal time impact result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the hypervisor steal time on VMs for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate the effective CPU performance loss from hypervisor steal time on VMs. Steal time % = CPU cycles requested by VM but not served by hypervisor due to other VM competition. Use the cpu steal time impact result to inform your calculation.
