Host Monitor views

Purpose

These views display CPU, memory, and other system metrics, along with a series of views connected with graphical flows, illustrating the selected host’s performance. Explore these views when you want to investigate a selected host’s statistics in real time.

* 
TIP: The value of Processor Queue Length metric is color-coded to indicate the threshold severity. For generic information about metrics’ thresholds, see “Working with Metric Thresholds” in the Administration and Configuration Help.
TIP: The value of Available Paging Space metric is color-coded to indicate the threshold severity. For generic information about metrics’ thresholds, see “Working with Metric Thresholds” in the Administration and Configuration Help.
