Virtual Machine Manager 2012 is showing 0% CPU usage
- by Mark Henderson
When trying to do some science to answer this question, I took a Windows 7 guest on a Server 2008 R2 host being managed by SCVMM 2012 and ran Prime95 on it to just generate some CPU usage.
Here's the Guest:
The Hyper-V host shows 12%, which is 1/8 cores (which is what is allocated), so that's looking correct:
But SCVMM is showing 0%:
I have left the stress test running for a long time, thinking that maybe SCVMM averages out over a long time (I thought it was 9 minutes, but I've been known to be wrong; just don't tell my wife).
Why is SCVMM showing 0% when everything else seems to disagree?
