vFoglight GUI Panels
Depending on where you log to vFoglight, you may see either the contents of the first
bookmark (the Welcome page is the default) listed under Bookmarks, or a home page.
For further details, refer to the vFoglight User Guide. Typically, the GUI is divided into
the following three panels:
• The navigation panel on the left.
• The larger display panel in the middle.
• The actions panel on the right.
Navigation Panel
The navigation panel operates like a drawer. Its default state is open. To close the
navigation panel, click the arrow at the far left of the vFoglight GUI. Click that arrow
again to open the navigation panel. The navigation panel lists all of the dashboards that
are available to the current user for viewing. You can use the navigation panel to select a
dashboard to view in the display panel. To access a specific dashboard, open the
appropriate module (the Virtual module, for example). The navigation panel also
provides access to the vFoglight Administration and Configuration areas, and may
provide access to some cartridge-specific navigation views (for example, the Virtual
Infrastructure View for the VMware Cartridge vmExplorer Dashboard).
Note If you do not see any dashboards in the navigation panel, the user id you signed in with may
not have been assigned to a group. For details, refer to the vFoglight User Guide.
The actions panel contains the various actions and tasks you can perform with thecurrent dashboard. It also contains views and data that you can add to a dashboard orreport you are creating and provides access to the online help files.
