Host Aggregates page in the OpenStack view

Host Aggregate is an OpenStack entity. You can partition a single Compute deployment into logical groups; for example, into multiple groups of hosts that share common resources like storage and network, or have a special property such as trusted computing hardware.

The Host Aggregates page in the OpenStack view displays information for all the host aggregates available in the selected cloud.  

You can access this page in the TrueSight console using one of the following ways:

  • Select Capacity > Views > Cloud > OpenStack and click the Host Aggregates tab
  • In the OpenStack > Cloud page, navigate to the Related Information panel and click the Host Aggregates link.
