description: Capacity runway and VM rightsizing report from Nutanix AIOps analysis
argument-hint: "[cluster_name]"
arguments: [cluster_name]

Capacity Report

Forward-looking capacity report: per-cluster resource runway plus VM rightsizing recommendations, built on the `aiops` namespace analysis.

Prerequisites

• Nutanix connected in the Conduit gateway with valid Prism Central credentials
• `aiops` namespace available on the connected Prism Central (feature availability depends on PC version and licensing)

Steps

1. **Verify the analysis surface**

Call `listOperations` with `namespace="aiops"`. If the namespace is absent, say so and fall back to a point-in-time utilization summary from `clustermgmt_execute` and `storage_execute` instead of fabricating trends.

2. **Capacity runway**

Discover and call the capacity/analysis operations via `aiops_execute` for each target cluster: CPU, memory, and storage runway projections.

3. **Rightsizing recommendations**

Call `aiops_execute` for VM rightsizing data: oversized, undersized, and inactive VMs. Resolve VM `extId`s to names via `vmm_execute` where the recommendation payload lacks them.

4. **Compile**

Per cluster: runway per resource with the constraining resource highlighted; then reclaimable capacity (top oversized and inactive VMs) and performance-risk VMs (undersized). Close with recommended actions — as recommendations only, since the connection is read-only.

Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description | |-----------|------|----------|-------------| | cluster_name | string | No | Report on a single cluster instead of all |

Examples

/capacity-report
/capacity-report --cluster_name "prod-east"

Error Handling

• **`aiops` absent or thin:** Deliver the fallback utilization snapshot and state explicitly that trend/runway analysis was unavailable
• **Recommendations without names:** Always join back to `vmm` data before presenting VM lists to a client
