Capacity is typically measured in gigabytes (GB) or terabytes (TB). Capacity should include the total space needed to support the current requirements, the space needed to support growth, the space needed for virtual machine swapfiles, and the additional slack space for snapshots, logs, and other virtual machine data.
Calculating storage capacity requirements
How to do it...
To calculate the storage capacity requirements, you need to perform the following steps:
- Determine the capacity required to support the current workloads
- Determine the capacity required to support future growth
