The vCenter Server Extensions allows you to monitor and interact with solutions that are registered with a vCenter Server instance.

The vCenter Server Extensions shows four standard tabs for each running solution. The tabs list the virtual machines that a solution deploys and manages, show the status, name, company URL, and version of the solution.

A solution can also use the Solutions portlet on the Summary tab to add links to Web pages that provide some functionality specific to the solution. For example, the pages can be used to allow users to configure the solution, or to provide access to the functions of the solution.
