Power CLi overcommit scripting help

I have this script and it works well for pulling this info 1 at a time for each cluster. I am trying to figure out how I can automate it so that I can pull all clusters in my vcenter at once, possibly creating a single spreadhseet with multiple tabs for each cluster. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you install the ImportExcel module, you could something like this.

A worksheet per cluster for CPU and Memory, and all in the same spreadsheet.

The script will report on all clusters for all vCenters to which you are connected when running the script.

Get-CLuster -PipelineVariable cluster |

ForEach-Object -Process {

   $reportCpu = @()

   $reportMem = @()

   Get-VMHost -Location $cluster -PipelineVariable esx |

   ForEach-Object -Process {

   $vCPU = Get-VM -Location $esx | where { $_.PowerState -match "on" } | Measure-Object -Property NumCpu -Sum | select -ExpandProperty Sum

   $reportCpu += $esx | Select Name, @{N = 'pCPU cores available'; E = { $_.NumCpu } },

   @{N = 'vCPU assigned to VMs'; E = { $vCPU } },

   @{N = 'Ratio'; E = { [math]::Round($vCPU / $_.NumCpu, 1) } },

   @{N = 'CPU Overcommit (%)'; E = { [Math]::Round(100 * (($vCPU - $_.NumCpu) / $_.NumCpu), 1) } }


   $vMem = get-vm -location $esx | where { $_.PowerState -match "on" } | measure-object -property MemoryGB -SUM | Select -Expandproperty Sum

   $reportMem += $esx | Select Name, @{N = 'Total Memory Available'; E = { [Math]::Round($_.MemoryTotalGB), 1 } },

   @{N = 'Memory Assigned to VMs'; E = { $vMem } },

   @{N = 'Ratio'; E = { [math]::Round(100 * ($vMem / $_.MemoryTotalGB), 1) } },

   @{N = 'Memory Overcommit (%)'; E = { [Math]::Round(100 * (($vMem - $_.MemoryTotalGB) / $_.MemoryTotalGB), 1) } }

   }

   $reportCpu | Export-Excel -Path C:\OC\CPU_Overcommitment.xlsx -WorksheetName "CPU-$($cluster.Name)"

   $reportMem | Export-Excel -Path C:\OC\CPU_Overcommitment.xlsx -WorksheetName "Memory-$($cluster.Name)"

}

LucD,

How can I change this to show the overcommitment per Cluster. Say for instance I changed "WorksheetName" to "CPU" and added -Append. That lists all the hosts individually on one sheet, Then I added @{N ='Cluster'; E = { $_.parent}} to the Select and I get a column for cluster.

But I want just at the cluster level, ie. One line per cluster.

Something like this?

Get-Cluster -PipelineVariable cluster |
ForEach-Object -Process {
   $reportCpu = @()
   $reportMem = @()

   $clusterCpuOC = @()
   $clusterMemOC = @()

   Get-VMHost -Location $cluster -PipelineVariable esx |
   ForEach-Object -Process {
       $vCPU = Get-VM -Location $esx | where { $_.PowerState -match "on" } | Measure-Object -Property NumCpu -Sum | select -ExpandProperty Sum

       $clusterCpuOC += ($vCPU - $esx.NumCpu) / $esx.NumCpu

       $reportCpu += $esx | Select Name, @{N = 'pCPU cores available'; E = { $_.NumCpu } },
       @{N = 'vCPU assigned to VMs'; E = { $vCPU } },
       @{N = 'Ratio'; E = { [math]::Round($vCPU / $_.NumCpu, 1) } },
       @{N = 'CPU Overcommit (%)'; E = { [Math]::Round(100 * (($vCPU - $_.NumCpu) / $_.NumCpu), 1) } }
    
       $vMem = Get-VM -Location $esx | where { $_.PowerState -match "on" } | Measure-Object -property MemoryGB -SUM | Select -Expandproperty Sum

       $clusterMemOC += ($vMem - $esx.MemoryTotalGB) / $esx.MemoryTotalGB

       $reportMem += $esx | Select Name, @{N = 'Total Memory Available'; E = { [Math]::Round($_.MemoryTotalGB), 1 } },
       @{N = 'Memory Assigned to VMs'; E = { $vMem } },
       @{N = 'Ratio'; E = { [math]::Round(100 * ($vMem / $_.MemoryTotalGB), 1) } },
       @{N = 'Memory Overcommit (%)'; E = { [Math]::Round(100 * (($vMem - $_.MemoryTotalGB) / $_.MemoryTotalGB), 1) } }
   }

   $cluster | Select @{N='Name';E={$cluster.Name}},
    @{N='CpuOvercommit';E={[Math]::Round(100 * ($clusterCpuOC | Measure-Object -Average).Average,1)}},
    @{N='MemOvercommit';E={[Math]::Round(100 * ($clusterMemOC | Measure-Object -Average).Average,1)}} |

LucD, As always thanks for the quick reply. I am amazed ( and maybe a bit frustrated at times) at how easily this comes to some people.. 

So thanks for that update, that Cluster worksheet is almost to what I was trying to get to. And if I need to start a new post / question, just let me know.

I have added a few more columns to be able to make the sheet read better, like the CPU / Memory sheets. If there is an overcommit, see what the actual values are.  

Below is my version. 

$cluster | Select @{N='Name';E={$cluster.Name}},`
@{N='Hosts';E={(Get-VMHost -Location $cluster.Name).count}},
@{N='VMs';E={(get-vm -location $cluster.Name).count}},
@{N='pCPUs';E={$_.ExtensionData.Summary.NumCpuCores}},
@{N='vCPU assigned to VMs';E={}},
@{N ='CPU Ratio';E={},
@{N='CpuOvercommit';E={[Math]::Round(100 * ($clusterCpuOC | Measure-Object -Average).Average,1)}},
@{N='TotalMemory';E={$_.ExtensionData.Summary.TotalMemory}},
@{N='AllocatedMemory';E={}},
@{N='MemOvercommit';E={[Math]::Round(100 * ($clusterMemOC | Measure-Object -Average).Average,1)}} |
Export-Excel -Path $log -WorksheetName 'Cluster' -Append

And output:

NameHostsVMspCPUsvCPU assigned to VMsCPU RatioCpuOvercommitTotalMemoryAllocatedMemoryMemOvercommit
workingworkingworkingworkingNeed help with expressionNeed help with expressionworkingSummary.TotalMemory gets a value but I guess I need to do a Math to get to GB, unless you know a better way.Need help with expressionworking

 

I cant seem to come up with how to make the expressions get the info I am looking for. Thanks for your help.
