Virtual Centers view

Purpose
This view is a tree view. It lists the virtual centers that exist in your environment and shows their state.
Figure 362. Virtual Centers view
Selecting the All Virtual Centers node displays overall resource utilization for all virtual centers in your integrated system, and the elements that consume the highest amount of system resources in the Summary (All Virtual Centers) view on the right. Similarly, selecting a server node shows server-specific metrics in the Virtual Center Summary view on the right.
How to Get Here
•
On the VMware Environment dashboard, on the Monitoring tab, in the Virtual Environment Overview, select the Virtual Centers tile.
The Virtual Centers view appears in the Quick-View on the left.
 
 
Table 170. Description of the View
Data displayed
•

Virtual Environment Overview

Purpose
The Virtual Environment Overview provides you with an overview of the selected virtual environment.
Figure 363. Virtual Environment Overview
The overview has a tile for each type of object in your virtual infrastructure. Each tile shows the number of instances the corresponding object type that exist in your virtual infrastructure, as well as the count of objects of that type in each of the alarm states (Normal, Warning, Critical, Fatal).
You can move the tiles by dragging and dropping until you achieve the desired layout. To hide one or more tiles, on the tool bar on the right, click Edit , and in the popup that appears, click a tile that you want to hide.
Figure 364. Virtual Environment popup
Click the object type icon, the object type name, or the object count, to view summary information for that entire object type in the Quick-View. Click an alarm state (for example, warning) on a tile to view 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 select that alarm state.
How to Get Here
•
On the VMware Environment dashboard, open the Monitoring tab.
The Virtual Environment Overview is located at the top of the display area.
