Nutanix environment with 74 nodes and around 2600 VMs It is observed that the VMs are overprovisioned, utilizing only about 30% of the resources. We request that you help us understand whether we have any tools, like vROps, to optimize the performance or recommend downsizing the CPU, memory, and storage.

In Prism Central you can get a report with the overprovisioned virtual machines. That you can use to shrink resources.
