The Optimization tab aims to help you make best use of your cloud resources. Enable the display of the Optimization tabs on Configuration View#Dashboard.
For the API documentation for this feature, see StatisticsResource
The Optimization tab contains details of:
- highest CPU usage
- highest RAM usage
- longest uptime
- lowest CPU usage
- lowest RAM usage
- unused public IPs
- unused load balancers
For more details of a VM, click on the arrow symbol beside the VM details.
To jump straight to a VM double click on its label or name in a table.

| Statistics | Description |
|---|---|
| Virtual CPUs | Virtual CPUs used by VMs that are currently deployed |
| Storage | VM disks that are created on the hypervisor datastore. This includes non-persistent VM system disks and ESXi hard disks. |
| Memory | RAM used by VMs that are currently deployed (GB) |
| Ext. Storage | Volumes of iSCSI storage created on integrated/managed or generic iSCSI storage devices. This includes volumes of persistent external storage and persistent VM system disks (GB). GB of volumes in VDCs |
| VLANs | Private VLANs defined in Abiquo. A default private VLAN is always created when you create a virtual datacenter. VLANS created in VDCs |
| Public IPs | IP addresses in public VLANs |
| Repository | NFS Repository space used by the enterprise in the Apps library including templates and instances but not conversions. Available for enterprises only, not individual virtual datacenters |
To view usage and limits for a single virtual datacenter, select Virtual datacenters and then select one.
Key:
- Green = used
- Orange = soft limit
- Red = hard limit

Events
This is a condensed view of the Events view logs. It is controlled with the same privileges as the Events view, so if the user has no events privileges, no events window will display here. Otherwise, the window will display all events for the enterprise or all events, depending on the user's role, privileges and scope.
You can filter the events by severity, including All, ERROR, INFO, and WARN.
Click on an event to open the event in a popup.
