| Resource | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Virtual CPUs | As used by VMs that are currently deployed |
| Storage | Represents the VM disks that are created on the hypervisor datastore, including non-persistent VM system disks and hard disks. These disks will be deleted when the VM is undeployed. Gigabytes |
| Memory | RAM used by VMs that are currently deployed. Gigabytes |
| External storage | Volumes created on integrated/managed iSCSI or NFS, or generic iSCSI storage. This includes volumes of persistent external storage and persistent VM system disks. Gigabytes of volumes created in VDCs |
| VLANS | Private VLANs defined in Abiquo. A default private VLAN is always created when you create a virtual datacenter. Number of VLANS created in VDCs |
| Public IPs | The number of IP addresses purchased or reserved in public VLANs, NAT IPs in NAT networks, and floating public IPs in public cloud providers |
| Virtual machines | The number of VMs deployed by the enterprise |

When there is a hard limit for a resource, the resource usage bar is solid green and it can extend to the hard limit. When there is no limit for a resource, the resource usage bar is green but it continues to the end of the graph where it fades to white.
If the user exceeds the soft limit for a resource, then the platform displays the resource usage as an orange bar. |
