Importing Cloud Models from Portal

To import Cloud models from the portal:
1
In the Cloud Instance pane, click Import From Portal.
The Import Cloud Models From Portal dialog box opens.
2
In the Import Cloud Models From Portal dialog box, select a cloud provider and a region, the instances table refreshes automatically.
3
In the instances table, select the cloud models as needed, and then click Save.
The Cloud Instance table refreshes automatically and imported Cloud instances are added into this table.

Exporting Cloud instances

To export Cloud instances:
1
In the Cloud Instance pane, click Export.
The existing Cloud instances are downloaded as a .csv file automatically.

Running Cloud Model

To run Cloud model:
1
In the Cloud Model view, click Select Virtual Machines.
The Select Virtual Machines dialog box opens.
2
In the Select Virtual Machines dialog box, select the VMs that you want to migrate to the Cloud instance, and then click Save.
3
In the Performance Risk area, specify the following:
* 
NOTE: If the virtual machines that have been selected for migration must always perform at their peak, enter 0% against each of CPU, Memory, Disk and Network. If Cost is the most important factor and performance is not a concern, enter 100 against CPU, Memory, Disk and Network; that way, no matter how often the virtual machine will exceed the destinations available resources it will always be included in the cloud model outcome and costs calculation.
•
CPU: The default value is 10%.
•
Memory: The default value is 10%.
•
Disk IO: The default value is 10%.
4
In the Cloud Instances table, select the Cloud instances to which VMs will be migrated, and then click Run Model.
The Scenarios dialog box opens.
5
In the Scenarios dialog box, select either of the following:
•
Find the best cloud IaaS tier for all of the selected virtual machines (N VMs to one Tier): Move all VMs to the same tier.
•
Find the best fit across all of the proposed cloud IaaS tiers for the selected virtual machines (N VMs to N Tiers): Moves all VMs to different tiers.
6
Click Go.
The Foglight Capacity Director runs the analysis and shows recommended values in the VMs to Migrate and Total Cost columns. For more information, see Model Outcome pane.

Model Outcome pane

The Model Outcome pane locates on the bottom of the Cloud Model view offers the following menus:

•
The Model Outcome for selector: Lists the Cloud instances selected in the Cloud Instances table.
•
CPU Demand: Lists the VMs that are failed to migrate because of CPU restrictions.
•
Memory Consumed: Lists the VMs that are failed to migrate because of memory restrictions.
•
Disk IOPS: Lists the VMs that are failed to migrate because of disk IOPs restrictions.
•
Disk Size: List the VMs that are failed to migrate because of disk size restrictions.
•
Unable to Model: Shows the virtual machines that are unable to model due to missing or outdated VMware Tools. Check for VMware Tools status with virtual machine.
•
VM table: Lists the detailed information about all VMs that can be migrated to the selected Cloud instance, including VM Name, CPU Fit, Memory Fit, Disk Space Fit, IOPs Fit, and Recommendation.
