2013-10-15 19:09:34 Maithem summary ESX drive report incorrect metrics for memory, disk and cpu usage VMware ESX driver reports incorrect metrics for memory, disk and cpu usage
2013-10-15 23:47:40 Maithem description The ESX driver doesn't account for resources that have been allocated without nova-compute. When nova-compute first launches, it polls the esx hypervisor for available resources and initializes the disk/memory/vcpu usage metrics with incorrect values (assumes all resources are available). Which can result in over allocation errors when provisioning new virtual machines. How to reproduce: 1. Create a virtual machine on the ESX machine 2. Launch nova-compute 3. Check the "Hypervisor Summary" page on the dashboard 4. Notice that the disk/memory/vcpu usage doesn't reflect the virtual machine's(from step 1) allocated resources The ESX driver doesn't account for resources that have been allocated without nova-compute.
