In an environment where VMware vRealize Operations Manager 6.x is installed, vRealize Business Standard can retrieve the expected CPU and memory utilization for each cluster or standalone ESXi host from vRealize Operations Manager.

Otherwise, expected CPU and memory utilization can be set per host by using the system-defined value, (computed by using historical averages), user-defined global value, or by user-defined value at each cluster level. Expected CPU and memory utilization is used to calculate virtual machine cost allocation.
