Hello everyone,

I have a question, we have a Hyper-V host (Windows Server 2016) that hosts several virtual machines. The host is well utilized (CPU) at peak times, I'm just wondering one thing, the CPU load of the host never exceeds 75% CPU utilization. Now I wonder if this value is somehow limited by a rule?

I know that the host always needs computing power itself and that you shouldn't overbook it, that just aroused my curiosity and I would like to know that. I'm not talking about the vCPU limitation of each virtual machine.

Maybe someone can answer this question.
