I have an Rocky OpenStack cluster, I want to monitor memory usage of instances.

monitoring of Linux instances is OK but Windows Server instances do not provide any data for memory usage.

I've searched a lot, I've installed balloon driver on windows instances but not worked for me. All components are updated to latest version.

So how can I get memory usage data from them?

You must be Install the Virtio Balloon driver AND the Balloon service in the guest:

1-Open Device Manager and see if there is an unknown PCI device. If so, right click it and install the driver manually from D:\Balloon\2K16\amd64 (or 2k12, 2k8, etc)

2-Now copy the entire amd64 folder into C:\Program Files\ and rename it "Balloon". So, now you have the amd64 folder from the disc copied as C:\Program Files\Balloon

3-Open an Administrative Command Prompt and cd to C:\Program Files\Balloon

4-Run this command:

BLNSVR.exe -i
