First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method to monitor computing resources comprising:
- determining a first color indicative of a usage of a first computing resource managed by a first virtual machine;
determining a second color indicative of a usage of a second computing resource managed by the first virtual machine;
combining the first color and the second color to determine a third color; and
displaying the third color to indicate an allocation of computing resources managed by the first virtual machine.

Abstract
Methods and apparatus to monitor computing resources are disclosed. An example method to monitor computing resources includes a determination of a first color indicative of a usage of a first computing resource managed by a first virtual machine and a determination of a second color indicative of a usage of a second computing resource managed by the first virtual machine. The example method also includes the first color and the second color being combined to determine a third color and the third color being displayed to indicate an allocation of computing resources managed by the first virtual machine.

8. A tangible machine readable medium storing instructions which, when executed, cause a machine to at least:
-
assign a first color to represent a numerical value indicative of a usage of a first computing resource managed by a first virtual machine; assign a second color to represent a numerical value indicative of a usage of a second computing resource managed by a first virtual machine; and display an icon having a third color that is an aggregate of the first color and the second color, the third color indicative of an allocation of the first and the second computing resources. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10)

11. A system to monitor a plurality of virtual machines corresponding to a plurality of computing resources, the system comprising:
-
an encoder to assign a first color to a first icon representative of a usage of a first computing resource, to assign a second color to a second icon representative of a usage of a second computing resource, and to assign a third color to a third icon representative of an aggregate usage of the first computing resource and the second computing resource, the third color being a combination of the first color and the second color; and a display to display the third icon to provide a visual identifier of the allocation of the first and the second computing resources of the virtual machines. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
