Views

Foglight® for VMware ships with predefined views to help you monitor your application server environment. This provides quick reference information about each view.

Foglight for VMware displays monitoring data in views that group, format, and display data. The main types are described below.

Dashboards are top-level views that do not receive data from other views. Dashboards usually contain a number of lower-level views. The dashboards supplied with Foglight for VMware, as well as those created by users, are available in the navigation panel.

Lower-level views in Foglight for VMware can be added to dashboards or can be accessed by drilling down from a dashboard. They receive and display data directly from the Foglight for VMware Management Server or from other views. Some views filter or select data that appears in other views in the same dashboard. Some are tree views with expandable nodes for selecting servers, applications, or data.

Resource Pools Relationship Tree view

The Resource Pools Relationship Tree view is provided in the VMware Explorer dashboard. If you select a Resource Pool container from the Topology view on the Virtual Infrastructure view and click the Summary navigation tab within the VMware Explorer Primary view, a Resource Pools Relationship Tree view is displayed in the Primary view. A Resource Pools Relationship Tree contains every resource pool that belongs to the clusters within the associated VirtualCenter.

The Resource Pools Relationship Tree view is useful if you want to see how the resource pools within the clusters are laid out or if you want to take a look at the utilization statistics for each configured resource pool on the VirtualCenter.

The default Resource Pools Relationship Tree simply displays the names of the various resource pools and their parent/child relationships.

You can use the Normal Zoom Level button on the mini map at the top right of the Relationship Tree to zoom into a more detailed version of the Tree. You can use the Minimized Zoom Level button on the mini map to zoom back out again.

You can browse through a Relationship Tree by clicking and dragging the rectangular shadow provided on the mini map.
