Interacting with the vFoglight Cartridge for VMware 71
vmMonitor Dashboard
Utilizations View
The Utilizations View is located near the center of the vmMonitor Dashboard.
Purpose
A typical Utilizations View provides detailed information about the four core resources
within an ESX infrastructure: CPU, memory, disk usage, and network usage. However,
the metrics and the amount of detail displayed in the Utilizations View vary depending
on the type of object that is being viewed. At the Server and Virtual Machine level, the
vmMonitor Utilizations View takes on a spotlight style appearance and provides some
additional details that are not available for other objects.
For descriptions of the various metrics available in the Utilizations View and elsewhere
in vFoglight Cartridge for VMware, refer to the vFoglight Cartridge for VMware
Reference Guide.
Within the Utilizations View, you can hover the cursor over any metric to see a
description of the metric, and you can click a metric or chart to see a popup with a
detailed chart.
