Capacity Planning can be a challenge in a stand alone environment, but how in the world do you do it in a virtualized environment such as z/VM? This session will describe the top focus areas along with key performance metrics that one should track when doing z/VM capacity planning. Additionally, we'll discuss at a high level some models for planning: natively on z/VM through home grown tools, through tools on z/OS, or in conjunction with other products.
