Each entity page is a collection widgets and each widget shows specific information related to the entity. The information provided is both real time and historical, and an exhaustive list of metrics and properties for the entity.

Timeline

The timeline provides you the following information:

  • The state of the data center at a particular time in the past.
  • A bird’s eye view of events that were detected across a selected time range.

Select the time range of the timeline that you want to view.

To view a particular timeline, select the time range by using the Time Range option.

Property Widget

The property widgets display important attributes in a two-column layout. Some property pins might also display only a singular attribute value. An example of the property pin is the VM Properties pin. The VM Property pin displays the properties of a VM, such as operating system, IP address, default gateway, logical switches, CPU, memory, power state, and so on.
