This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

VMRM 1.7 is enhanced to show CPU and memory details of both sites. It also shows the details hierachically different levels. It is through cli
The "Capacity & Usage" is already shown at the host level.
Two new similar boxes could be added to the hostgroup level. One box would show the local capacity & usage while the second would show the remote capacity & usage.
The CPU percentage should also show a CPU count instead of a percentage. That would make the local and remote counts comparable.
The title of the boxes should use the local custom names rather than "local" or "remote" to make it more clear about which site it is reporting for - like "Home_Town Capacity & Usage" and "DR_Town Capacity & Usage".
If the local resources (CPU or memory) exceed the remote resources, then the numbers for those resources could change to red, or maybe highlight the box in red... really anything to attract attention to the lack of remote resources.
If there are not enough remote resources, the GUI could also suggest a percentage reduction to make the local VMs fit into the remote resources available.
