VMware Cluster VMs Capacity report

We just started evaluating Foglight for capacity planning and assessment. One of the reports I believe our leadership will be interested in is the "VMware Cluster VMs Capacity" report. I see the report provides a value for VMs remaining. I'd like to know a little more about this value and how it is calculated:

  1. What exactly does a "VM" represent in these reports?
  2. Can a similar report be run using a specific type of server based on resource allocation or modeled after an existing VM's wokload?

We will have a small, medium, and large VM offering depending on resource allocation. I'd like to alter the report to display how many of each type of VM I would have available....or point to an existing VM and, based on it's resources and workload, determine how many of that server I have available.
