How do you mean?

What data do you have for the current environment: vCPU + usage%?

i mean to say vms are configured with numcpu but on esxi we need Ghz .

so how do i make sure that vmswhich iam going to migrated will be running fine without resource crunch.

So you are saying that the 2 platforms have HW where the CPU runs at considerably different clock cycles?
You can also get the usageMhz metric, that would perhaps allow a better estimate of what you need to define on the target side.

Afaik, you can also use NumCpu on an ESXi node.
