Global settings parameter configuration

Hi all

General question

If i change the value host.capacityType.to.order.clusters = cpu  to ram

which other parameter does it affect

These two parameters
Param1) cluster.cpu.allocated.capacity.disablethreshold
Param2) cluster.cpu.allocated.capacity.notificationthreshold


Regards
Kiran

The above setting is the heuristic used by the deployment planner to
decide on the cluster to house a VM into. That heuristic is affected
by the cpu OverCommit and memory overcommit ratios only.
The following two parameters are not directly affected by the above setting.

However, this param disables the cluster for further deployment. So
the disabled cluster is removed from being considered by the planner
while computing the aggregate capacity using the host.capacityType
setting.

This is the setting used to send out an alert event that you see on
the dashboard. So it doesn't affect the planner.
