Welcome to Foglight Resource Optimizer

Welcome to Foglight Resource Optimizer

Virtual machines (VMs) are quickly becoming the industry standard in IT infrastructures. IT managers find themselves with hundreds, if not thousands of VMs or physical machine hosts in their infrastructures. VMs can be added quickly, making it necessary to plan for the addition of virtual machines to the physical machines that host them. This can be a challenge for administrators. IT managers lack the required tools to accurately optimize CPU, memory, and network consumption, or project storage requirements. Monitoring virtual machine environments with Foglight™ Resource Optimizer simplifies the optimization process, providing waste-finding and right-sizing functionality for virtualized environments.

These Release Notes cover the resolved issues, known issues, workarounds, and other important information about the 5.7.7 release of the Foglight Resource Optimizer. Review all sections before starting the installation.
