Status: Needs More Info

We need a convenient way to get a report about the utilization of our resources (virtual machines). The report should guide us in the planning of an optimized resource utilization. For example it can give us the time where the most machines are working in parallel (peek) and the time where are the most machines free and lying around (lazy time). With the report we should be able to plan the schedules in a more balanced way.

this is great a functionality that should be already available since day 1

Hi @Stefan__Pappalardo,

Thanks for taking the time to raise an idea (4 years ago!) - it's recently hit 15 votes, so has triggered a Product Manager review of the idea and the problem it solves.

Can you help clarify for me where the current utilization reporting (that exists in the utilization tables in the database and can be shown in reports on the dashboard) differs from what you need today? Are you looking for predicted rather than actual utilization based on future schedules, or an enhancement to the historic reporting on actual utilization to better suit your organization's needs?

Looking forward to your response - I'm going to update this to Needs More Info for the moment.

Regards,

Rob

Hi Robert,

We need a convenient way to get a report about the utilization of our resources (virtual machines).

The report should guide us in the planning of an optimized resource utilization.

For example it can give us

  • the time where the most machines are working in parallel (peek)
  • and the time where are the most machines free and lying around (lazy time).

With the report we should be able to plan the schedules in a more balanced way.

If you need more information please ask more precise.

Regards
Stefan
