Time Range

The default behavior of vFoglight Cartridge for VMware is to display metrics, alerts,

and messages that have occurred within the last four hours. This time range, however, is

configurable.

To configure the Time Range use the Time Range menu located in the upper right corner

of the vFoglight GUI, as show in Figure 3.

Figure 3 Time Range menu

Using the Time Range menu, you can select from the listed pre-defined time ranges or

you can specify a custom range using either a sliding time bar or precision controls to

specify dates and times. When you modify the time range for a dashboard or view, it

adjusts the range for all of the views contained within and drill-downs accessed from

that dashboard or view. It does not adjust the time range for any parent views.

For more detailed information about modifying the time range, please refer to the

vFoglight User Guide.
