Average Analysis Period
Specify the Average Analysis Period and select the analysis time range for Cloud Model. The Average Analysis Period includes the following options: Last 1 Day, Last 3 Days, Last 7 Days, Last 30 Days, Last 90 Days, and Last 180 Days. The analysis time range includes the following options: 24 Hrs, Business Hours (08:00 AM - 06:00 PM), and Custom (8 AM - 6 PM).
•
Performance vs Cost Saving
Specify the CPU Impact, RAM Impact, and Disk IOPs/Throughput Impact. The default values are 10%.
* 
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 recommendation and costs calculation.
•
Model Type
Select either of the following option:
•
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.
•
Resource Consumption
Resource Level communicates how suited a VM is to the modeled IaaS instance. The values can be modified.
•
Very Low: Indicates that the VM will use below 10% of the provisioned resources.
•
Low: Indicates that the VM will use between 10% - 30% of the provisioned resources.
•
Medium: Indicates that the VM will use between 30% - 55% of the provisioned resources.
•
High: Indicates that the VM will use between 55% - 80% of the provisioned resources.
•
Very High: Indicates that the VM will use between 80% - 100% of the provisioned resources.
VMs will always be placed into the cheapest offer using the performance risk factor. If all VMs have a low level of Resource Level, a cheaper IaaS instance should be added to the model.

Menu bar
