VM Resource Metering

You can enable metering for a particular VM using the PowerShell command : Get-VM <virtual machine name> |  Enable-VMResourceMetering

If you want to enable it for all VMs, you can use : Get-VM | Enable-VMResourceMetering

You can view the resource usage list of all virtual machines using : Get_VM | Measure-VM

You can sort the list using : Get_VM | Measure-VM |sort AvgRAM –descending
