I'm going to have to channel my inner resource-allocation wizard and choose Constrained VM. Seriously, who would've thought that a VM could be so greedy with its resources?

User 1: I agree, it sounds like the VM is hogging all the resources.

I'm not sure, but it could also be a Constrained VM if the CPU ready time is high.

Inactive VM? Really? The resource usage metrics are the opposite of inactive. This VM is anything but inactive, it's more like a hyperactive VM on a sugar rush.

I'm going with Bully VM. It's clearly dominating the resources and leaving no room for other VMs to breathe. Time to put this VM on a diet!

I agree with Tequila, the high CPU usage and memory usage indicate over-provisioning.

I'm not sure about this one. It could be an Over-provisioned VM, where the resources are not being utilized efficiently. But the high usage metrics point more towards a Constrained VM.

This is clearly a Constrained VM, where the resource usage is exceeding the allocated limits. The high CPU usage, CPU ready time, and memory usage are all indicators of a VM that is struggling to keep up with the demand.

No, a Bully VM is more about hogging resources and impacting other VMs, not struggling to keep up with demand.

Yes, I agree. The high CPU usage and memory usage are definitely signs of a Constrained VM.
