VMware Explorer Primary view

The VMware Explorer dashboard has a Primary view that takes up the entire display area of the Foglight for VMware browser interface. For more information about the VMware Explorer dashboard, see Investigating Performance Metrics .
Purpose
The VMware Explorer Primary view is the most content-intensive view in Foglight for VMware. It provides access to summary (of alarm, resource, and other) information for the object being viewed in the VMware Explorer dashboard, as well as detailed information on performance with respect to the four core ESX infrastructure resources: CPU, memory, disk, and network usage. This view provides a great deal of value to administrators who leverage Foglight for VMware to monitor their virtual infrastructure.
Figure 219. VMware Explorer Primary view
It provides navigation tabs that can be used to view a variety of valuable information pertaining to the object being viewed.
Content and Embedded Views
The metrics and the amount of detail displayed in the Primary view vary depending on the type of object you select.
The Primary view changes in appearance and content, depending on which navigation tab and embedded view you have selected.
The VMware Explorer Primary view heading, located at the top of the VMware Explorer Primary view, consists of three main components: an icon and text that specify the type of selected object or object container (from this point on, these two are referred to simply as object, unless otherwise specified), an alarm summary for the selected object, and navigation tabs.
The alarm summary at the right of the Primary view heading shows you the number of alarms at each severity level that are outstanding for the selected object. When you click an alarm count, you get a popup that lists the active alarms for the object.
The navigation tabs are located immediately below the selected object’s name. These navigation tabs vary from object to object, but generally contain a tab to an object summary (typically the default view), a tab to an object performance overview, and one or more tabs to other relevant information.
The Primary view changes in appearance and content, depending on which navigation tab and embedded view you have selected. For example, if you select an object type container from the Topology view, the Summary tab in the Primary view displays a consumption graph and a table that are representative of the group of objects within that container. However, if you select a Resource Pools container from the Topology view, the Summary tab in the Primary view displays a Resource Pools Relationship Tree that contains every resource pool that belongs to the clusters within the associated VirtualCenter.
If you select an individual resource pool from the Virtual Infrastructure view, the Summary tab in the Primary view displays summary and utilization information for that resource pool. This is typically the type of information you see for the Summary tab when you select any individual object from the Virtual Infrastructure view.
The metrics and the amount of detail displayed in the Primary view vary depending on the type of object you select.
The VMware Explorer Primary view contains a combination of a number of different embedded views. For more information, see the following topics:

VMs tab

Purpose
The VMware Explorer’s VMs tab displays the combined CPU utilization for all virtual machines associated with the selected component. This includes the percentages of CPU processing power allocated to the virtual machines that is used and ready for use.
Figure 220. VMware Explorer Primary view
How to Get Here
1
Open the VMware Explorer.
2
On the Virtual Infrastructure view, that appears on the navigation panel, select any node, except an individual virtual machine node.
3
In the VMware Explorer, open the VMs tab.
Description of Embedded Views
This view is made up of the following embedded views:
•
CPU Utilization
•
Virtual Machines
 
CPU Utilization
Description
Shows percentages of CPU processing power that are used and ready for use.
Data displayed
•
% Ready. The percentage of CPU processing power that is currently ready for use.
 
•
% Used. The percentage of CPU processing power that is currently used.
 
Table 95. Virtual Machines
Description
Shows the list of all virtual machines that are associated with the selected component.
By default, the CPU Utilization shows the CPU utilization for all virtual machines associated with the selected component. Selecting specific virtual machines in the Virtual Machines view and clicking Apply shows the CPU utilization information for the selected virtual machines. This can help you quickly compare the statistics for two or more virtual machines, when needed.
Data displayed
•
% Ready. The percentage of CPU processing power that is currently ready for use by the virtual machine.
 
•
% Used. The percentage of CPU processing power that is currently used by the virtual machine.
 
•
Virtual Machine. The name of the virtual machine.

VMware Modeler Views

The VMware Modeler dashboard contains the following view:
•
Migration Modeler view

Migration Modeler view

Purpose
The Migration Modeler view uses the collected data to show the effect that a virtual machine may have on an ESX host during a selected time period. This view can be used to predict potential performance impacts of moving virtual machines to specific physical ESX hosts.
