Abstract
Machines, systems and methods for allocating resources to in a virtualized computing environment, the method comprising detecting one or more host machines with resources allocated to one or more virtual machines (VMs) that are in an idle state; reducing resource entitlements for at least one of the VMs that is detected to be in the idle state to make more resources available for allocation to VMs that are not in the idle state; and increasing resource entitlements for at least one of the VMs with reduced entitlement, in response to determining that the VM with reduced entitlement is no longer in the idle state.
