How much space is really available for your Hyper-V VM

By googleing the headline you can find a lot how-tos out there. I fail to follow most tutorials, because there are not that many entries under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Virtual Machine\Guest. Especially no entry Parameters:

Solution 1:

With powershell, enter to get the list of VM(s):

Get-VM

then use Measure-VM:

Measure-VM -VMName YourVM

Note from Measure-VM description:

The Measure-VM cmdlet reports data on processor usage, memory usage, network traffic, and disk capacity for one or more virtual machines.

Note: Data is available for reporting through the Measure-VM cmdlet only after resource metering is enabled for a virtual machine.
