Virtual Machine detail view

The Virtual Machine (VM) detail view provides high-level performance metrics for both the currently selected VM and for its host ESX® Server, and tiles for any application components running on the selected VM.

Figure 90. Example of the Virtual Machine detail view

From here, you can:

•

Click the ESX: <hostname> tab to access the ESX Server detail view.

•

Click More Details (not shown, located at the bottom right corner of the view) to drill down to a vmExplorer view.

•

Click the title bar of an application component tile to open the detail view for that component.

ESX Server detail view

This tab displays the CPU, Memory, Network, and Disk utilization for the <hostname> from the perspective of the ESX® server. The lower part of the tab displays the top resource consumers for this host. From this tab you can navigate to the vmExplorer dashboard by clicking More Details. This dashboard allows you to further investigate the performance of the selected ESX® host.

For hosts, always select the host object, regardless of whether or not the host is virtual (for example, Hyper-V® or VMware®). Foglight looks for the appropriate host extensions and displays the associated host dashboard (physical or virtual).


	NOTE: The list of available topology objects is current as of this release. Additional cartridges may add additional relevant objects in future releases.
