To monitor the CPU usage of all virtual machines in a specific host cluster, you should add an alarm at the cluster level. By doing this, the alarm will apply to all VMs within that cluster, providing an efficient way to monitor all VMs at once. Adding the alarm to individual VMs or at the ESXi host level would require more effort and wouldn't provide the unified monitoring that adding an alarm to the cluster would achieve.
To monitor the CPU usage of all virtual machines (VMs) in a specific host cluster using alarms in VMware vSphere, the administrator can follow this sequence of actions: Select the Target Cluster: From the "Hosts and Clusters" view, select the specific cluster for which you want to monitor CPU usage. Create or Edit Alarm Definitions: Right-click on the selected cluster and choose "Alarm" > "Add Alarm" or "Edit Settings" if you want to modify existing alarms.
