vSphere Infrastructure view

The Infrastructure view enables you to manage the capacity of a virtualized infrastructure that is running vSphere, and presents key capacity metrics and charts for vSphere hosts and domains. You can use vSphere views to complete tasks such as manage the capacity of vSphere hosts belonging to a cluster, identify vSphere VMs that can be added to clusters, manage vSphere datastores, and so on.

To access the vSphere Infrastructure view, in the navigation pane of Views tab, select Views > Virtualization > vSphere > Infrastructure. The vSphere Infrastructure page contains subviews that provide details on vSphere clusters, hosts, and datastores. The view also provides a set of actions as recommendations to help you resolve issues for your vSphere infrastructure.
