Volume view

The Volume view shows the data transfer rates and latency detected for the selected volume. It also identifies the virtual machines that use the highest amounts of the volume resources.The information provided on this tab can help you prevent potential bottlenecks by reallocating disk resources where they are most needed.

This view appears in the display area when you click in the Volume Summary view.

Virtual switch monitoring

A Hyper-V Virtual Switch is a software-based layer-2 Ethernet network switch. The switch connects virtual machines to virtual and physical networks.

To review data collected about a specific volume or all volumes, make your selection in the Quick-View.

Virtual Switches view

The Virtual Switches tree view lists the available volumes and indicates their severity state.

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

Figure 130. Virtual Switches view

Selecting the All Virtual Switches node displays the overall resource utilization for all virtual switches in your integrated system and identifies the ones that consume the highest amount of network resources in the Summary - All Virtual Switches view on the right. Similarly, selecting a virtual switch node shows switch-specific metrics in the Summary - Virtual Switch view.

 
Table 80. Description of the View
Data displayed
•
Alarm severity. The state of the most recent alarm raised against the virtual switch.
 
•
All Volumes. A parent node for the instances of all virtual switches that appear in this view.
