The Virtual Memory Usage chart displays the amount of memory allocated and used by SQL Server to the total memory consumed on this VM or host server. The Resources > Memory view allows you to track your usage over a period of time, along with other key memory statistics. For additional information about how SQL Diagnostic Manager works with virtual machines and collects metrics, see How SQL Diagnostic Manager works with a virtual environment.
