# CPU Ready Column not showing data

The Real-Time DX Console displays the **vSphere CPU ready VM** metric in the **CPU Ready** column. See the **runstate_full_contention** metric for XenServer VMs to show the **CPU Ready** state.

However, it is **not** turned on by default, so you will either have to go to XenCenter and add it to the VM Performance tab, or use the XenServer PowerShell cmdlets to turn it on.

To help you implement this, you can use the **Counter_on** bash script attached to this article. It turns on any single performance counter, such as **runstate_full_contention**.
