This script will change the resource allocation of a given vSphere VM. By default, the allocation is increased one 'SharesLevel' for CPU, HDD, Memory or all three.
If the SharesLevel for a resource is 'Custom' this will not be changed. ALL hard disks will be set to a new SharesLevel based on the current level of the FIRST disk. Example, script is set to Increase level for All resources:
CPU SharesLevel 'Normal' ---> CPU ShareLevel 'High'
Memory SharesLevel 'Custom' ---> Memory SharesLevel 'Custom'
FIRST HDD SharesLevel 'Low', SECOND HDD SharesLevel 'Normal' ---> ALL HDD SharesLevel 'Normal'

Show the average usage for each CPU over a specified period of time.
Can help to spot overloaded or over specified vCPU allocations for computers although the SBA should be run a number of times, particularly when under peak usage/load.
Arguments:
Capture Period - the number of seconds to monitor CPU usage for
