Function
eSight provides virtual resource management functions and integrates entries for information query, maintenance, and operation of a single NE into one page, which facilitates monitoring and maintenance of a single NE.
Virtual Resource Access
The Virtual Resource Access function accesses and monitors virtual computing infrastructure such as the FusionSphere OpenStack, Redhat OpenStack, VMware ESX/ESXi Server, VMware vCenter Server, and FusionCompute.
Virtual Resource Monitoring
- Performance monitoring
O&M personnel can monitor the CPU/memory usage of hosts and VMs and set global thresholds on the home page, facilitating flexible monitoring of virtual resources.
- Alarm monitoring
Alarm monitoring and alarm synchronization are supported.
- Key monitored objects
For vCenter Server and FusionCompute, O&M personnel can specify VMs of VIP tenants as key monitored objects and view the following performance indicators on the home page or a large screen: VM status, CPU/memory usage, network adapter incoming/outgoing traffic rate, and disk read/write rate and latency.
- Top N monitoring
O&M personnel can monitor the top N VMs, hosts, and clusters with the highest CPU usage, memory usage, and disk usage on the home page.
Figure 3-40 Top N monitoring - Region monitoring
Region monitoring is supported only in V300R010C00CP5030 and earlier versions.
For the vCenter Server and FusionCompute, the region monitoring function centrally monitors the healthiness of data center virtual resources and corresponding public ports. Users can understand the overall healthiness information of the data center on the region monitoring page, and drill down by layer to locate the specific faulty VM. In addition, users can drag the time scroll bar to view historical running information of the data center.

- VM component topology
For the FusionSphere OpenStack and FusionCompute, O&M personnel can view virtual components such as cloud disks and ports of VMs, and view the mapping between virtual components and physical resources in the component topology.

- VM physical topology
For the FusionSphere OpenStack and FusionCompute, O&M personnel can view the network topology from the physical device where the VM is located to the external routers from the VM perspective.

Virtual Resource Configuration and Synchronization
- Configuring the global threshold and performance alarm threshold
Users can configure the alarm threshold and monitoring thresholds of KPIs such as the CPU usage and memory usage to flexibly monitor virtual resources.
- Synchronizing virtual resources
When the status of virtual resources managed by eSight changes, you can manually synchronize the changes or configure a synchronization policy to synchronize the changes at a scheduled time, ensuring that the virtual infrastructure information is updated in time.
Global Search
O&M personnel can search for VMs by name, IP address, and ID, click a VM in the search result to open the NE Manager, and add a VM as a key monitored object.
