Summary (All Datacenters) tab

The Summary (All Datacenters) tab shows a summary of system resources for all datacenters that currently exist in a selected Virtual Center.

2
On the Virtual Infrastructure view, that appears on the navigation panel, select the Datacenters node.

This view is made up of the following embedded views:

Shows the combined percentage of the CPU usage for all ESX hosts in the system.

Combined CPU Consumption %. The combined percentage of the CPU utilization used by all ESX hosts to execute system code and user programs during the selected time period.

Drill down on:

Combined CPU Consumption %. Displays the Combined CPU Consumption dialog box.

This tabular view lists all datacenters that exist in a Virtual Center configuration.

Clusters. The number of clusters associated with the datacenter.
CPU Used. The current amount of the CPU speed that is used by the ESX hosts associated with the datacenter.
Hosts. The number of ESX hosts associated with the datacenter.
Key. The color used in the Combined CPU Consumption chart to represent the datacenter.
Memory. The current percentage of memory that is used by the ESX host.
Name. The datacenter name.
Status. The datacenter status, associated with any alarms raised against it. If no alarms are fired, the status appears as Normal. Otherwise, the status is set to the highest alarm severity (Warning, Critical, or Fatal).
VMs. The number of virtual machines associated with the datacenter.

Drill down on any datacenter entry. The VMware Environment dashboard appears, showing the datacenter details on the Summary tab.

This embedded view shows the same information as the Virtual Environment view appearing on the Summary (All Clusters) tab. See page 141 for complete information.

Summary (All Resource Pools) tab

The Summary (All Resource Pools) tab shows a summary of system resources for all resource pools that currently exist in a selected Virtual Center.

2
On the Virtual Infrastructure view, that appears on the navigation panel, select the Resource Pools node.

This view is made up of the following embedded views:

For complete information about this view, see Resource Pools Relationship Tree view .

This embedded view shows the same information as the Virtual Environment view appearing on the Summary (All Clusters) tab. See page 141 for complete information.

Summary (All Servers) tab

The Summary (All Servers) tab shows a summary of system resources for all ESX hosts that currently exist in a selected Virtual Center.

2
On the Virtual Infrastructure view, that appears on the navigation panel, select the ESX Hosts node.

This view is made up of the following embedded views:

Shows the combined percentage of the CPU usage for all ESX hosts in the system.

Combined CPU Consumption %. The combined percentage of the CPU utilization used by all ESX hosts to execute system code and user programs during the selected time period.

Drill down on:

Combined CPU Consumption %. Displays the Combined CPU Consumption dialog box.

Table 90. ESX hosts

This tabular view lists all ESX hosts that exist in your environment.

ESX host, CPU. The current amount of the CPU speed that is used by the ESX host.
ESX host, Key. The color used in the Combined CPU Consumption chart to represent the ESX host.
ESX host, Memory. The current percentage of memory that is used by the ESX host.
ESX host, NICs. The number of network interface cards used by the ESX host.
ESX host, ESX host Name. ESX host name.
ESX host, Status. The ESX host status, associated with any alarms raised against it. If no alarms are fired, the status appears as Normal. Otherwise, the status is set to the highest alarm severity (Warning, Critical, or Fatal).
ESX host, Version. The version number of the Windows OS running on the ESX host.
Virtual Machines, Configured. The number of virtual machines that exist on the ESX host.
Virtual Machines, Running. The number of virtual machines that are running on the ESX host.

Drill down on any ESX host entry. The VMware Environment dashboard appears, showing the ESX host details on the Summary tab.

This embedded view shows the same information as the Virtual Environment view appearing on the Summary (All Clusters) tab. See page 141 for complete information.

This tabular view lists all virtual machines that exist in the selected Virtual Center.

Virtual Machine, Name. The name of the server on which the virtual machine is running.
Virtual Machine, Status. The status of the server on which the virtual machine is running, associated with any alarms raised against it. If no alarms are fired, the status appears as Normal. Otherwise, the status is set to the highest alarm severity (Warning, Critical, or Fatal).
Virtual Machine, CPU. The percentage of the virtual machine’s CPU utilization spent on executing system code and user programs.
Virtual Machine, Name. The virtual machine name.
Virtual Machine, Status. The virtual machine status, associated with any alarms raised against it. If no alarms are fired, the status appears as Normal. Otherwise, the status is set to the highest alarm severity (Warning, Critical, or Fatal).
Virtual Machine, Memory. The total amount of memory allocated to the virtual machine.

Drill down on any virtual machine entry. The VMware Environment dashboard appears, showing the server details on the Summary tab.
