As just discussed, the accuracy and value of capacity management views and reports relies on an administrator's ability to correctly translate their environmental requirements into policies. Although it is important to understand that capacity management in vRealize Operations is no longer limited to vSphere instances, for the purposes of this chapter, vSphere will be the primary focus. The ability for capacity management to extend to non-vSphere components is based on the associated Solution (also known as the Management Pack), and as such will not be covered in detail in this chapter. It is important to note, however, that many of the concepts in this chapter relate to capacity management in general, and as such may also be useful for non-vSphere solutions.
