An administrator needs to calculate baseline Capacity Runway on a newly registered AHV cluster.

Capacity Runway analytics in Prism Central rely on historical usage data to generate forward-looking projections. Nutanix documentation specifies:

“Capacity runway forecasts require a minimum of 30 days of historical utilization data to build growth rate baselines and trending models.”

The modeling engine uses CPU, memory, and storage trends over time to estimate depletion dates. Insufficient historical data prevents generating meaningful predictions.

Prism Central will display “Not enough data” or simply omit runway metrics until the minimum time window is met.

The 21-day threshold applies to anomaly detection, not runway calculations.

The 3-month and 6-month options refer to optimal historical windows for accuracy but are not required.

Thus, the correct requirement is 30 days of history.
