Reference Guide
Related Objects Views
At least one Related Objects View is provided in both the vmExplorer and the
vmMonitor Dashboards.
In the vmExplorer Dashboard, Related Objects Views are part of the Primary View and
are typically located at the bottom of the Primary View. In the vmExplorer Dashboard,
more than one Related Objects View may appear at a time.
In the vmMonitor Dashboard, the Related Objects View is not considered part of
another view and is located at the right of the dashboard. Only one Related Objects
View appears on the vmMonitor Dashboard.
Purpose and Content
Related Objects Views provide summary information on either the parent or child
objects or both (whichever are applicable) of the object being viewed in the dashboard.
In the vmExplorer Dashboard, Related Objects Views differ from each other and may
not appear at all depending on the object or collection of objects selected from the
Virtual Infrastructure View and on the navigation tab selected from the vmExplorer
Primary View heading.
In the vmExplorer Dashboard, Related Objects Views for an individual object display
tables that list either the parents or descendents or both (whichever are applicable) of the
selected object and provide pertinent summary details about each one. The Related
Objects View for a collection of objects displays a table that lists all of the objects in the
selected collection and provides pertinent summary details about each one. You can sort
Related Objects View tables by a particular column by clicking the corresponding
column heading. If you select an object from the table by clicking on one of the table
rows, all of the views in the vmExplorer Dashboard get updated with information about
that object.
In the vmMonitor Dashboard, the Related Objects View provides Status Views of
summary details for either the parents or descendants or both (whichever are applicable)
of the object being viewed in the dashboard. The information presented varies slightly
depending on the object that is being viewed. Within the vmMonitor Related Objects
View, if you click an object’s icon, all of the views in the vmMonitor Dashboard are
updated with information about that object.
In the vmMonitor Dashboard, the combination of the Related Objects View and the
breadcrumbs at the top of the dashboard provide you with an effective way to traverse
up and down through the various virtual infrastructure object levels and view all of the
available metrics the VMware Cartridge provides for the virtual infrastructure.
