Understanding the VSC dashboard : Host configuration and performance monitoring using the VSC dashboard


Host configuration and performance monitoring using the VSC dashboard
The Virtual Storage Console dashboard of the virtual appliance for Virtual Storage Console (VSC), VASA Provider, and Storage Replication Adapter (SRA) provides an overview of the storage systems, ESXi host systems, datastores, and virtual machines in your vCenter Server environment. You can monitor the performance of datastores and virtual machines. The dashboard also reports any issues with storage and ESXi hosts.
The VSC dashboard displays IOPS, space utilized, latency, and committed capacity metrics that are obtained from your vCenter Server. ONTAP provides space saving metrics to the VSC dashboard. These performance parameters enable you to identify performance bottlenecks in the virtual environment and to take corrective action to resolve the issues. The data that is provided in the dashboard helps vCenter Server administrators and storage administrators in analyzing the datastore usage and to take corrective action to prevent the virtual machines from running into space-related constraints.
