Provisioned=1, Recommendation=1, Reclaimable=1?

Hi,

in a "Virtual Machine Rightsizing" report, I very often get a puzzling reccomendation like this:

Name - CPU Provisioned - CPU Recommendation - CPU Reclaimable

vm01- 1 Cores - 1 vCPUs - 1 vCPUs

(VM is powered on)

How can I remove 1 vCPU from a VM with only 1 vCPU????

Thanks

Probably due to the machine being marked as Idle, you could run the Idle VM report to see if these machines show up.

You can also change the setting as to when a machine is flagged as idle for Reclaimable Capacity (Under Object Type - Virtual Machine > Reclaimable Capacity)
