Abstract

Machine implemented method and system is provided for managing resources within an operating environment having a plurality of computing systems and a plurality of virtual machines. The resources are monitored and resource utilization is compared to configured threshold values for managing over utilization. If resource utilization reaches the threshold value, then the resource is identified as being over utilized. One or more data structures are used to display and verify the over utilization on a display device. The root cause of the over utilization is identified and then corrective action may be taken to reduce the over utilization.
