Dashboard for a group of virtual machines

I want to create dashboards customized for groups of virtual machines.  These virtual machines will generally be a grouping of servers to make a request.

For example lets say I have 6 Web servers that make up Webapp1.   and I want a dashboard that shows me the metrics of just these 6 servers.

What is the best way to do it?  In general, we organize the virtual machine in files that represent the application.

The dashboard would be your typical metric memory, cpu, storage (load) CPU Ready ect.

Probably, there are two ways to go about it, here, my preferred approach is to use a service.

A Service is a logical grouping of components in Foglight.

When you build a service, you can specify which domain, it is a part of.

In this example, I create a gtest service

Specify that it is a part of the domain of vmware

and then add virtual machines

It looks like this

Then I can just look at virtual machines in the service of the dashobard of the virtual environment by selecting the gtest service

If I want, I can also create a dashboard and drag the getServiceVMs to the main view

In the tree on the right data access to all categories of services and search service.

Drag the getServiceVMs to the dashboard feature

and select a model that works for me (as the summary lite)

Or create a table with the right information (similar to this)

The result will look like this

Hope this helps

  • PowerCLI script for the deployment of virtual machines via the model using customizations comments

    Hello... I hope someone can give me a script that will do the following:

    (1) provision VMs in vCenter template (I need 125 + VMs created in the next day or two)

    (2) use the existing customizations of comments in vCenter

    (3) let me enter data warehouses available to be created on the virtual machines.  Example: I want that VMs on warehouses of specific data as LUN2, LUN5, LUN6, LUN12, LUN1, etc...  However, the script must have the ability to know when a data store is near the threshold of capacity, say 90%, so it can use one of the other warehouses available, identified in the script... similar to storage profiles.  We still have to adopt profiles storage but plan to do so once upgraded us to v5.1 in the next month or two.  We hope that this will help us keep our replicated LUN more organized during the use of SRM and copy to remote groups, our team of storage's configuration on 3PAR.


    Additional information: I will use 2 styles... Windows XP and Win7.  Their respective sizes are 40 and 60 GB due to all applications for stable DR.  Data warehouses are ea 500 GB.

    No, unfortunately you cannot specify a folder like this.

    You'll have to do a

    $folder = get-file-name WinXP

    New-VM-$folder file...

    Remove the line of New - VM WhatIf switch if you really want to start creating virtual machines.

  • I have a product key for a pre-installed version of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, now I need an ISO standard for installation in a virtual machine

    Hello

    I bought a refurbished machine that came with Win 7 Pro pre-installed. I erased the HARD drive. Completely. Nothing more.

    I don't want Win 7 installed on the drive, but I need an ISO to install it in a virtual machine for research reasons.

    I tried to download the ISO of http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery, but when I gave the product key, I got a response that I should turn to the vendor of the computer and that is preloaded.

    When I did and asked an ISO, they told me to download from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-recovery. This seems to be the only source for Windows ISOs left in the world.

    So, I run long in circles... infinte loop... :-(

    How can I solve this misery?

    Thanks for the replies!

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. ISO file which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options?

  • How to increase disk for/tmp space in virtual machine?

    People,

    Hello. I use VM Player 3. My host computer is Windows 7 and VM is Oracle Linux 5.10.

    When I copy a virtual machine host machine (1.2 GB) file, the error message appears:

    "Unable to write file in Virtual Machine.Aborting the copy file operation."

    To be able to copy the file into the virtual machine, it takes about 2 GB of disk space free for the folder/tmp.

    I cleaned all the files in the directory/tmp which is now empty. After that, I ran the cammand:

    $df h/tmp

    Its output:

    File system: / dev/map/VolGroup00-LogVol00

    Dimensions: 95G

    Used: 90G

    Available: 48 M

    : Use 100%

    Mounted on: /.

    As you see above, it has only 48 M free disk space, the file size is 1.2 GB to copy.

    My question is:

    How to increase disk space for "available: 48" to the directory/tmp in VM Oracle Linux 5.1 so that can copy the file?

    Thanks in advance.

    The log files are rotated. You have only the *.log files, but the former obsolete log files too. Are named name.log001 name.log002 and so on.

    Check out some of the files you found the log files and remove turned the oldest logs first. Once you have deleted a couple check if cela disk space savings.

    In theory, you can remove all of the log files, but be careful that no server component runs when you do that. Otherwise the logging stops until you stop and restart the component. If you are not sure if something is running, start with swivelled out newspapers.

  • Copy of the virtual disk for use by another virtual machine

    Hi all! How can I copy a virtual disk file to a location for future use by another virtual machine? I tried to just copy the hard, but it did not work for me - the copy is about 1 KB size and I can not add it as a hard drive on another virtual machine. Can someone help me?

    OK, so this client web vSphere that you use, in this case browse datastore doesn't show you the two files.

    Please follow the steps below

    Please go to Cluster & host inventory

    Select your ESXi host

    go to the tab 'Manage'-> settings-> Security-> Service Profile, and then click the button CHANGE

    Start the SSH service.

    If please use WinSCP to connect to your Esxi host and navigate to the folder of the virtual machine as in the screenshot to the suite, I navigated to a folder that is my VM name: Win10A

    and it has a virtual disk, if I want to take the virtual disk of this virtual machine to a different VM, I need to copy the two files that are highlighted.

    the two are to train your virtual disk.

    Download these two files and download them to another folder where you second VM resides, then try to tie it with this virtual machine.

    Hello

    You can try something like this...

    In vSphere client, choose display of virtual machines and templates.

    From there create a folder unless you already have one and move the virtual machines in question in this case. (you can also select a host, it must not be a folder).

    In the upper pane, select the virtual machines when you have selected the folder, or the host. You can select more than one virtual machine and right-click-> comments-> installation/upgrade to update VMware tools.

  • 12 GB of RAM is "not enough physical memory" for a 2-GB virtual Machine?

    I run VMware Player 6.0.3 on Windows 64-bit 8.1. My host has 12 GB of physical memory and my virtual machine uses 2 GB memory. And yet, I can't start my VM because VMware has said "not enough physical memory is available to power on this virtual machine with its configured settings".

  • No headquarters 'server' for JAVA 1.6 virtual machine

    Hello

    Looking at my inventory of platform, I see the option to add a new service of type "Sun JVM 1.5" and no option to choose "Sun JVM 1.6".»  Hyperic does support monitoring Sun Java JVM 1.6? If so, how should I configure my dock so I can see the Java followed information?

    Thank you
    Brian

    Dougm accessories for the answer here - but the JMX in JAVA 1.5 and 1.6 JVM virtual machine upon which we depend is exactly the same. There is no difference in how you select 1.5 vs 1.6 - they can be used exactly the same thing. Doug also adds that it should be compatible 1.5, although likely 1.4 works the same.
