Foglight for VMware Horizon View 5.8.3 - User Guide

Administration tab

You can use this tab to configure and administer View Connection Server agents to collect data from your monitored environment. For more information, see Explore administrative tasks.

Navigating between View server instances

Choosing a specific View server instance from the drop-down list in the top-left refreshes the VMware View Environment dashboard with the information about the selected environment.

The list of View servers is populated from the View Instance Name that you create during agent creation. Each View Server instance can contain a different combination of monitored components. For more information on agent creation, see Manually add View instances.

Explore the VMware View Environment Details tab

The VMware View Environment Details tab contains tiles that summarize status. Selecting a tile changes the content displayed in the Quick View area. This content varies depending on the tile that you select. For example, selecting the View Infrastructure tile displays the connection server, terminal server, and security server details associated with a View Server instance.

For more information, see these topics:

Work with tiles

The upper part of the tile displays the desktop management component and a total count of these entries in the environment.

The lower part of the tile displays the count of entities at each severity level, based on the alarms currently active for those entries.

Clicking the label in the tile, for example, vSphere Objects, displays summary and alarm information for all components of that type in the Quick View area.

Clicking the alarm count in the lower part of the tile displays summary and alarm information for only the components with that status.
