Overview of Views
vFoglight displays monitoring data in views that group, format, and display data. The
main types are described below. Dashboards are top-level views that do not receive data
from other views. Dashboards usually contain a number of lower-level views. The
dashboards supplied with vFoglight, as well as those created by users, are available in
the navigation panel. Lower-level views in vFoglight can be added to dashboards or can
be accessed by drilling down from a dashboard. They receive and display data directly
from the vFoglight or from other views. Some views filter or select data that appears in
other views in the same dashboard. Some are tree views with expandable nodes for
selecting servers, applications, or data.
