Datacenters view

This tree view lists the datacenters that exist in your environment and shows their state.

Figure 95. Datacenters view

Selecting All Datacenters displays overall resource utilization for all datacenters in your integrated system, and the elements that consume the highest amount of system resources in the Summary - All Datacenters view on the right. Similarly, selecting a datacenter node shows datacenter-specific metrics in the Datacenter Summary view on the right.

On the VMware Environment dashboard, on the Monitoring tab, in the Virtual Environment Overview, select the Datacenters tile.
The Datacenters view appears in the Quick-View on the left.
Alarm severity. The state of the highest-severity alarm raised against the selected datacenter.
All Datacenters. A parent node for the datacenter object instances that appear in this view.
Datacenter. A datacenter name.

Summary - Datastore view

The Summary - Datastore view shows the overall resource utilization and the amounts of system resource consumption for a physical datastore.

1
On the VMware Environment dashboard, on the Monitoring tab, in the Virtual Environment Overview, select the Datastores tile.
2
In the Quick-View, select a datastore node in the Datastores view.
The Summary - Datastore view appears on the right.

This view is made up of the following embedded views:

Table 119. Alarms

Lists the alarms generated against the selected datastore.

Alarm Message. An explanation about why the alarm occurred.
Severity. Indicates the alarm severity: Warning, Critical, or Fatal.
Time. The time when the alarm was generated.

Drill down on:

Alarm Message, Severity, or Time. Displays the Alarm dialog box, showing additional information about the alarm. For more information about alarms in Foglight, see the Foglight User Help.
Table 120. Related Items

Shows the numbers and states of the selected datastore and other components associated with this datastore.

Clusters. The number of clusters associated with the selected datastore, followed by the related alarm counts.

Virtual Center. Displays the Virtual Centers Inventory dwell, showing the name and state of the virtual center associated with the selected datastore.
Virtual Machines. Displays the Virtual Machines Inventory dwell, showing the names and states of all virtual machines that are associated with the selected datastore.

Shows the resource consumption for the selected datastore broken down into four simple views.

Capacity. The total space allocated to this datastore.
Datastore. The name of the selected datastore, followed by the related alarm counts.
Est. Time Until Full. The estimated amount of time until which this datastore will become full.
Free. The amount of free space for this datastore.
Max File Size. The maximum file size for this datastore.
Percent Free. The percent of free space for this datastore.
Type. The datastore type.
URL. The datastore URL.
Used. The amount of used space for this datastore.
Weekly Growth Rate. The average amount of space the datastore expands every week.

Drill down on:
