Alexander,

Thanks for your help.
Indeed, you are right! But only on the VM listing.

When on the "Hosts listing", in the tab below you can quickly see the running VM (on that host), but you have no quick way to find the RAM/CPU information (since there isn't a below "below tab")
This is specially annoying when we are trying to migrate VM between hosts, and have no easy information on ressource usage of each VM.

I hope I do not come accross as rude, oVirt is a great peace of software and we are mostly satisfied with it.
It's just sometimes frustrating to loose extra time to search this important information

cordialement, regards,

If you select a VM, it will open up the sub tabs at the bottom of the web
admin. On the general tab in the second column it will list defined memory,
guaranteed memory as well as cpu information.
