vROPS 6.6 - Understanding Stress Badge

Hi there

I am trying to understand the stress badge within vROPS. I have made some modifications to our monitoring policy in the hopes of getting a clearer picture of stress but seem to be going backwards.

vROPs reports stress as "Good: No Issues" but the graph indicating the "Business Week Workload" is totally red.

I have gone through the various CPU metrics (demand, allocation etc) and, as an exampole, during peak periods where demand is 121GHz vs 165GHz available - the cluster reports as still stressed.

I have modified the stress zone to be warn/be yellow at 75%, orange at 80% and red at 90% - so with the values above I would expect the colour of the graph to be approaching yellow. I also have a maintenance window in place in order to not take stats into account during our batch/backup windows on Saturday night/Sunday morning

Any help or guidance with this would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
