Getting Started Guide
The browser interface also includes the Administration home page, which allows you to
navigate to all Administration dashboards and presents a summary of information about
vFoglight from an administrative perspective.
The browser interface consists of three areas:
• A navigation panel that:
• Lists all of the dashboards that are available for viewing in the display area by
the current user.
• Provides access to the Administration home page and to the pages where you
perform administrative tasks.
• A display area in which you can view and create dashboards and reports.
• An action panel that:
• Lists the various actions that you can perform on the dashboard that is
currently displayed.
• Contains views and data that can be added to a dashboard or report that you
are creating.
• Provides access to the online help.
Note The action panel is referred to as the page panel in the Web Component Framework
documentation, for example in the Web Component Reference.
See the Foglight User Guide and the Administration and Configuration Guide for more
information.
Customizable Dashboards
vFoglight also includes the Web Component Framework, which allows you to create
and populate your own custom interface views on top of the dynamic data schemas
generated by the Foglight Management Server. See the Web Component Guide and the
Web Component Tutorial for more information.
vFoglight command-line interface
vFoglight provides commands that allow you to manage and work with vFoglight
components without having to use the browser interface. These commands allow you to
perform tasks such as managing the vFoglight Management Server, the vFoglight Agent
Manager, agents, cartridges, and licences, as well as work with entities such as metrics,
monitoring policies, and schedules.
