vCenter Appliance Availability dashboard displays the list of vCenter instances with reachability and availability issues.

If you have hundreds of vCenter instances and need to check their availability and the status of their services, it can be tedious to log in to each vCenter individually to gather this information. This dashboard helps you identify reachability issues and services that are encountering problems.

How to Use the Dashboard

The vCenter Appliance widget displays the instance name, total ESXi hosts, VMs, reachability of each vCenter. To check if there are any issues in the vCenter services, click a vCenter instance in the vCenter Appliance widget. The Services in the selected vCenter widget is automatically displayed once you click a vCenter instance. This widget displays the health status of the vCenter services. You can sort the services based on health status according to the following status: Started, Stopped, or Unknown.

Clicking an instance shows you the summary of the instance with metrics, logs, alerts, and other details.
