powercli script to calculate if the Load is balanced or not

[Singh_Amit]

Hi,

I wrote script to display the CPU and Memory utilization of the hosts in a cluster on a specific vCenter and that's working perfectly.

Can someone please help me to get a script that could calculate if the load is balanced or not?

A quick way of looking at the load distribution in a cluster is by getting the fairness values for each ESXi node in the cluster.

The explanation for these fairness values can be found in the HostListSummaryQuickStats page.

Get-Cluster -PipelineVariable cluster | Get-VMHost |

Select @{N='Cluster';E={$cluster.Name}},

    Name,

    @{N='CPU Fairness';E={$_.ExtensionData.Summary.QuickStats.DistributedCpuFairness}},

    @{N='Memory Fairness';E={$_.ExtensionData.Summary.QuickStats.DistributedMemoryFairness}}

Thanks for your reply.. I used your script but that gives only Fairness values for the CPU and Memory..

Could you please guide me through with a script that would calculate and display like:

Current host load standard deviation: 0.xxxxx

On the basis of this, I will be able to define load balanced/imbalanced comparing with the Target.
