Hi,

We are running MAP 5.0 in our network to plan for Server consolidation by Virtualizing the under utilized servers.

one of our Servers Average Network utilization is 25% based on Task manager (on a 1 Gbps network),

that equals to ~20-25 Megabytes Per Sec.

Whereas the MAP 4.0 & 5.0, even after 7 days of collecting data it reports the Utilization as 1.xx Megabytes Per Sec.

Based on MAP FAQ's Network utilization value will be Peak utilization attained. but this doesn't seem to true

Is there anything that I am missing or is it a Bug in MAP tool?

Thanks

Ashok
