Nutanix Virtual Machine Detail dashboard
The Nutanix Virtual Machine Detail dashboard provides a detailed look into one of the selected Nutanix Acropolis Virtual Machines within the client's BMC Helix Continuous Optimization (HCO) environment. Within the dashboard the following capacity insights will be presented:
- Snapshot of the Current Capacity
- Configuration Metrics collected for the virtual machine
- Tags applied to the virtual machine
- Timeseries for metrics being collected for the virtual machine
- Future Saturation or resources
- Timeseries which visualizes the future saturation
Filters
Filters can be found in the upper left portion of the dashboard. The following filters are:
- VM → Filters all panels to only focus on the specified virtual machine selected
- Data Resolution → Contains three values: Detail, Hourly, and Daily. This filter changes the data resolution to be used in the timeseries charts.
- Resource Statistic → Contains three values: Average, Max, and 95th Percentile. This filter changes the statistic to be used in the timeseries charts.
