Hi Olivier,
The monitor for CPU ready summation is converting the value deliberately (the description of the component explains a little bit more and links to http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2002181). I was hoping to use a % value to make it easier to read and match with the links where the % value is discussed. The VMware KB points to a difference between esxtop and the API and most documents seem to reference the esxtop format. Having two component monitors for this, one with and one without the formula might make sense?
When it comes to the formula itself, the one there is really just dividing by 200 as per the KB "A realtime CPU summation value of 1000 is divided by 200 to give a CPU ready % of 5."
The Round(${Statistic}/180/200,2) looks to be dividing by 36000. This looks like it is matching the timing for a fortnightly update interval from what I can tell.
" Realtime: CPU summation value / 200
Past Day: CPU summation value / 3000
Past Week: CPU summation value / 18000
Past Month: CPU summation value / 72000
Past Year: CPU summation value / 864000"
I think that might account for a difference in values/formulas?
All the best,
Erica
