Cartridge for VMware Views 109
Overview of Views
Messages View
The vmMonitor Dashboard provides a Messages View, located toward the bottom of the
dashboard.
Purpose and Content
The VMware Cartridge receives VirtualCenter messages (including status changes and
VirtualCenter alarms, if configured) and presents them in the vmMonitor Dashboard.
Note These messages are not generated by the VMware Cartridge.
The Messages View displays these messages for the dashboard time range specified. For
specific information about dashboard time ranges, refer to the vFoglight User Guide.
If you click a message within the Messages View, you are taken to a vmMonitor
Dashboard for the object to which the message corresponds, if appropriate. You can
always use the breadcrumbs at the top of the vmMonitor Dashboard to navigate back
through the virtual infrastructure.
For more information about the Messages View, see the chapter titled “Interacting with
the Cartridge for VMware” in the vFoglight Cartridge for VMware User Guide.
