SOFS Servers view

The SOFS Servers view is a tree view. It lists the SOFS servers that exist in your environment and shows their state.

This view appears in the Quick-View on the left when you select the SOFS Servers tile in the Virtual Environment view.

Selecting the All SOFS Servers node displays overall resource utilization for all servers in your integrated system, and the elements that consume the highest amount of system resources in the Summary - All Servers view on the right. Similarly, selecting an SOFS server node shows server-specific metrics in the Server Summary view.

Summary - All SOFS Servers view

The Summary - All SOFS Servers view displays overall resource utilization information for a group of SOFS servers and shows the elements that consume the highest amount of system resources.

This view appears in the Quick-View on the left when you select All SOFS Servers in the SOFS Servers view.

This view is made up of the following embedded views:

SOFS Server Summary view

The SOFS Server Summary view shows the overall resource utilization and the amounts of system resource consumption for an SOFS server.

This view appears in the Quick-View on the left when you select an SOFS server in the SOFS Servers view.

This view is made up of the following embedded views:

Table 36. Resource Utilizations

Description	Shows the resource consumption for the selected SOFS server broken down into four simple views.
Data displayed	• CPU Load. The current percentage of the selected server’s CPU load, used to execute system code and user programs, based on the total CPU capacity.
	• CPU Utilization, % Used. The percentage of the server’s CPU utilization spent on executing system code and user programs during the selected time period.
	• CPU Utilization, Baseline. An envelope indicating the expected CPU utilization range based on historical data.
	• Disk I/O. The current disk I/O rate for the selected server.
	• Disk Utilization, Baseline. An envelope indicating the expected disk utilization range based on historical data.
	• Disk Utilization, Transfer Rate. The rate at which the server reads and writes data to the disk during the selected time period.
	• Memory Usage. The current percentage of the average memory usage by the selected server, based on the total memory capacity.
	• Memory Utilization, % Used. The percentage of the available memory that the server uses during the selected time period.
	• Memory Utilization, Baseline. An envelope indicating the expected memory utilization range based on historical data.
	• Network I/O. The current rate at which the selected server transfers data from and to the network.

SCVMM server monitoring

A System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) is a management solution for a Hyper-V environment. It allows you to manage host, networking, and storage resources when creating and deploying virtual machines to virtual clouds.

To review data collected about a specific SCVMM server or all SCVMM servers, make your selection in the Quick-View.
