The following list provides the descriptions of the VMware VC Resource Pool performance metrics.

Overall Status

The status of the resource pool.

Memory Overall Usage (percent)

The overall memory usage of the resource pool in a percentage.

CPU Overall Usage (percent)

The overall CPU usage of the resource pool in a percentage.
