Performance investigation with the Hyper-V Explorer

The Hyper-V Explorer provides a great deal of value to administrators who leverage Hyper-V Monitoring in Foglight® Evolve Cloud to monitor their virtual infrastructure. It has a hierarchical interface that displays various performance metrics and alarms within the virtual infrastructure. It provides several informative views through which you can quickly and easily access detailed information about any of the available components (physical or virtual) within the monitored environment.

About the Hyper-V Explorer

The Hyper-V Explorer provides detailed performance metrics about an object or a group of objects selected on the Hyper-V Explorer Topology tab.The upper part of the Hyper-V Explorer consists of three main components: a selected tile, an alarm summary for the selected object, and navigation tabs.

The alarm summary in the top right shows the number of alarms at each severity level that are outstanding for the selected object type: clusters, servers, and virtual machines. Clicking an alarm count shows a list of the active alarms for the selected object or group of objects.

The range of navigation tabs varies from object to object, but generally includes a tab that displays the selected object’s summary (typically the default view), a tab displaying the selected object’s performance monitoring details, and one or more tabs with other relevant information. There are tabs that appear in the display area and a tab displaying a topology tree on the navigation panel. In addition, the action panel also provides instant access to a number of useful actions and tasks.
