Virtual Environment view
This view appears in the upper part of the Monitoring tab, just above the Quick-View. It displays a high-level overview of the selected virtual environment. The view has a tile for each type of object in your virtual infrastructure: Clusters, Servers, SCVMM Servers, SOFS Servers, Virtual Machines, Storage, and Virtual Switches.
Each tile shows how many of the corresponding object instances there are in your virtual infrastructure, as well as the count of objects of that type in each of the alarm states (Normal, Warning, Critical, Fatal). For example, the following image shows four physical servers: none in the Fatal, Critical or Warning states, and four in the Normal state.
You can move the tiles by dragging and dropping until you achieve the desired layout.
Clicking the object type icon, the object type name, or the object count, shows summary information for that object type in the Quick-View. Clicking an alarm state (for example, Warning) on a tile displays summary information in the Quick-View for the objects of that type that are in the selected alarm state. If an alarm state has a count of zero, then you can not drill down on the alarm state.
This view contains the following tiles:
