Parameter Name

Description

Type

 

 

 

start-time

timestamp of the date and

read only

 

time that the metrics for the

 

 

VM were read, in the form

 

 

yyyymmddThh:mm:ss z,

 

 

where z is the single-letter

 

 

military timezone indicator, for

 

 

example, Z for UTC (GMT)

 

 

 

 

install-time

timestamp of the date and

read only

 

time that the metrics for the

 

 

VM were read, in the form

 

 

yyyymmddThh:mm:ss z,

 

 

where z is the single-letter

 

 

military timezone indicator, for

 

 

example, Z for UTC (GMT)

 

 

 

 

memory-actual

the actual memory being

read only

 

used by a VM

 

 

 

 

VCPUs-number

the number of virtual CPUs

read only

 

assigned to the VM

 

 

For a paravirtualized Linux

 

 

VM, this number can differ

 

 

from VCPUS-maxand can be

 

 

changed without rebooting

 

 

the VM using the vm-vcpu-

 

 

hotplug command. See the

 

 

section called “vm-vcpu-

 

 

hotplug”. Windows VMs

 

 

always run with the number

 

 

of vCPUs set to VCPUs-max

 

 

and must be rebooted to

 

 

change this value.

 

 

Note that performance

 

 

will drop sharply if you set

 

 

VCPUs-number to a value

 

 

greater than the number

 

 

of physical CPUs on the

 

 

XenServer host.

 

 

 

 

VCPUs-Utilization

a list of virtual CPUs and their

read only map parameter

 

weight

 

 

 

 

os-version

the version of the operating

read only map parameter

 

system for the VM

 

 

 

 

PV-drivers-version

the versions of the

read only map parameter

 

paravirtualized drivers for the

 

 

VM
