Related Objects views

At least one Related Objects view is provided in the VMware Explorer dashboard.

Related Objects views are part of the VMware Explorer Primary view and are typically located at the bottom of the Primary view. More than one Related Objects view may appear at a time.

Related Objects views provide summary information on either the parent or child objects or both (whichever is applicable) of the object being viewed in the dashboard.

Related Objects views differ from each other and may not appear at all depending on the object or collection of objects selected from the Virtual Infrastructure view and on the navigation tab selected from the VMware Explorer Primary view heading.

Related Objects views for an individual object display tables that list either the parents or children or both (whichever is applicable) of the selected object, and provide pertinent summary details about each one. The Related Objects view for a collection of objects displays a table that lists all of the objects in the selected collection and provides pertinent summary details about each one. You can sort Related Objects view tables by a particular column by clicking the corresponding column heading. If you select an object from the table by clicking on one of the table rows, all of the views in the VMware Explorer dashboard get updated with information about that object.

Resource Pools Relationship Tree view

The Resource Pools Relationship Tree view is provided in the VMware Explorer dashboard. If you select a Resource Pool container from the Topology view on the Virtual Infrastructure view and click the Summary navigation tab within the VMware Explorer Primary view, a Resource Pools Relationship Tree view is displayed in the Primary view. A Resource Pools Relationship Tree contains every resource pool that belongs to the clusters within the associated VirtualCenter.

For more information about the VMware Explorer dashboard, see Investigating performance metrics .

The Resource Pools Relationship Tree view is useful if you want to see how the resource pools within the clusters are laid out or if you want to take a look at the utilization statistics for each configured resource pool on the VirtualCenter.

The default Resource Pools Relationship Tree simply displays the names of the various resource pools and their parent/child relationships.

You can use the Normal Zoom Level button on the mini map at the top right of the Relationship Tree to zoom into a more detailed version of the Tree. You can use the Minimized Zoom Level button on the mini map to zoom back out again.

You can browse through a Relationship Tree by clicking and dragging the rectangular shadow provided on the mini map.

Shares tab

The VMware Explorer’s Shares tab displays the CPU and memory shares that are in use by the virtual machines associated with the selected component.

On the Virtual Infrastructure view, that appears on the navigation panel, select a cluster, ESX host, or resource pool instance.

This view is made up of the following embedded views:

Table 50. CPU Shares

Shows the CPU shares that are in use by the virtual machines associated with the selected cluster, ESX host, or resource pool instance.

Drill down on:

CPU Shares graph. Displays additional information about the CPU shares, indicating which virtual machines are selected and their CPU shares showing in the graph.
Table 51. Memory Shares

Shows the memory shares that are in use by the virtual machines associated with the selected cluster, ESX host, or resource pool instance.

Drill down on:

Memory Shares graph. Displays additional information about the memory shares, indicating which virtual machines are selected and shows their memory shares in the graph.

Shows the list of all virtual machines that are associated with the selected cluster, ESX host, or resource pool instance.

CPU Shares. The number of CPU shares.
Key. The color indicator for displaying this information in the Active Memory and Shared Memory views.
Memory Shares. The number of memory shares.
Virtual Machine. The name of the virtual machine.

Drill down on:

Storage tab (Cluster)

The VMware Explorer’s Storage tab displays the disk storage capacity associated with the selected component. Selecting a cluster and opening this tab displays the storage metrics associated with the selected cluster.

2
On the Virtual Infrastructure view, that appears on the navigation panel, select a cluster.

This view is made up of the following embedded views:

This view contains information about the selected datastore data capacity.

Datastore, In Use. The percentage of disk space in use.
Most Available, Available Space. The disk space available on the datastore.
Most Available, Name. The name of the datastore.
VMs On Datastore, Allocated. The amount of memory allocated to the virtual machine.
VMs On Datastore, In Use. The amount of memory used by the virtual machine.
VMs On Datastore, Name. The name of the virtual machine associated with the datastore.

This view shows the datastore capacity for each datastore connected to the selected cluster.

This view shows the data transfer rates for each datastore connected to the selected cluster.

This view lists the datastores connected to the selected cluster and shows performance metrics associated with each datastore.

Available Space. The amount of available space on the datastore.
I/O. The datastore data transfer rates.
Latency. The datastore latency.
Name. The datastore name and its alarm status.

This view lists the ESX hosts belonging to the selected cluster and associated with the selected datastore, and shows performance metrics associated with each ESX host.

Name. The ESX host name or IP address.
Read. The ESX host data read rates.
Read Latency. The ESX host read latency.
Write. The ESX host data write rates.
Write Latency. The ESX host write latency.

This view shows the data transfer rates each ESX host belonging to the selected cluster and associated with the selected datastore.

This view shows the amount I/O resources used by the virtual machines associated with the selected datastore.

I/O Distribution. A pie chart indicating how much the individual virtual machines contributed to the use of I/O resources.
VM Offenders, Name. The name of the virtual machine.
VM Offenders, ESX Host Name. The name of the ESX host on which the ESX machine is running.
VM Offenders, I/O. The data transfer rate for the virtual machine.
