Before and after comparison of a virtualization study
Use the information in this section to see how the deployment of the new guests had affected the key performance statistics of the virtual environment.
The section on top displays a breakdown of the number of physical and virtual entities before and after, along with the operations that occurred. For instance, how many guests were deployed, relocated, new hosts created.
The Before column shows the performance statistics for the virtual hosts prior to the study, while the After column shows the projected performance of those servers after the study.
The following table describes the fields in the Before and After comparison section.
