Capacity Buffer Depreciated in version 8.6 and higher?

From p. 495 of Configuring VMware Aria Operations (SaaS) 

"Starting from version 8.6, capacity buffer is depreciated from cluster compute resources. The
overcommit ratio setting (from the allocation model) and buffer settings, if set for the datastore
object, takes precedence for the disk space related to datastore cluster and cluster objects. If
these settings are not set, then, from a cost calculation perspective, the settings of datastore
cluster and cluster (if the settings are missing for the datastore cluster as well), are used. The
allocation and buffer settings made on the cluster does not impact the underlying datastores (as
they do not inherit these settings), and the same works vice-versa, settings made for datastores
are not propagated to the cluster."

Is the guide referring to this:

Because I see the Buffer values being included in the calculation:

Are you using Aria Operations on-prem or the SAAS offering?

 

If I'm not mistaken the screenshots are of Aria Ops on-prem, but the doc is for Aria Ops SAAS.


Was I helpful? Give a kudo for appreciation!
