Data displayed
 
•
Alarm counts. The total counts of alarms associated with the clusters, servers, or virtual machines, broken down by alarm types (Normal, Warning, Critical, Fatal).
 
•
Cluster count. The number of physical servers in your virtual environment.
 
•
Server count. The number of physical servers in your virtual environment.
 
•

Hyper-V Explorer VMs

The Hyper-V Explorer VMs tab appears when you are exploring individual clusters. The VMs tab is consisted by a Heat Map Chart: and a Metric Table:.

Figure 181. VMs tab

•
Heat Map Chart:
Heat maps will be refreshed automatically when you change either of the following fields:
•
Hyper-V server: Lists all the Hyper-V servers available in the monitored environment.
•
Selected Metric: Populates a rectangle based upon the selected metrics. For example, if you select Memory Consumed from the Selected Metric drop-down list, the rectangle area will be populated based on the used memory for the selected topology object.
•
Virtual Machine: Select to display all virtual machines, or virtual machines with alarms.
•
Rendering related metrics: For example, if you select CPU Utilization and Red to Green, the rectangle of the topology object that has larger value of CPU Utilization will be rendered in red.
•
Color Metric: Renders the color of rectangle based upon the selected color metric.
•
Color Pattern: Offers two patterns, Red to Green (larger value shows in red) or Green to Red (larger value shows in green).
•
Metric Table:
Metric table lists the metrics of the Hyper-V virtual machine. The column values will vary with the Selected Metric and Color Metric.

Hyper-V Explorer Monitor

The Hyper-V Explorer Monitor tab appears when you are exploring individual servers and virtual machines. It provides more details about the component’s resource usage, such as the utilization of each individual CPU, server, and cluster performance, and the data throughput rate.
