    Description

      List of problem metrics:

      • vmware.hv.cpu.usage.perf
      • vmware.hv.cpu.utilization
      • vmware.vm.memory.usage
      • vmware.vm.cpu.latency
      • vmware.vm.cpu.readiness
      • vmware.vm.cpu.swapwait
      • vmware.vm.cpu.usage.perf

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Link Template VMware to a vCenter instance
      2. Wait for LLD
      3. Check latest data of discovered VMs with linked template VMware Guest
      4. Look for value: Host memory usage in percents / vmware.vm.memory.usage

      Result:
      Values with over 100%

      Expected:
      The description of the item states: (https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/5.2/manual/config/items/itemtypes/simple_checks/vmware_keys)
      Percentage of host physical memory that has been consumed.
      So to my understanding, whatever the values does, it must be below 100% and never over.
