Cartridge for VMware Views 99
Overview of Views
At A Glance View
The vmExplorer Dashboard provides an At A Glance View. The At A Glance View is
located in the navigation panel of the vFoglight GUI, below the Virtual Infrastructure
View.
Purpose
The At A Glance View provides key statistical information for the object that is selected
in the Virtual Infrastructure View (that is, for the object that is being viewed in the
vmExplorer Dashboard).
Content and Embedded Views
The content of the At A Glance View depends on the object that is being viewed in the
vmExplorer Dashboard.
The At A Glance View may or may not contain the following embedded views:
• Top 5 CPU View - shows the top five CPU-consuming virtual machines for the
selected object
• Top 5 Memory View - shows the top five memory-consuming virtual machines
for the selected object
• Top 5 Disks View - shows the top five virtual machines in terms of disk activity
for the selected object
• Top 5 NIC View - shows the top five virtual machines in terms of NIC activity for
the selected object
• Top 5 Ready View - shows the top five virtual machines in terms of percent-
readiness for CPU cycles for the selected object
• Status View - provides a brief summary of the present status of the parent object
for a selected Virtual Machine
For more information about the At A Glance View, see the chapter titled “Interacting
with the Cartridge for VMware” in the vFoglight Cartridge for VMware User Guide.
