I see what you're trying to do. Unfortunately you cannot see parent-child relationship from that interface. You can only see (and define yourself, however be careful) relations in 'Environment -> Advanced -> Resource Relationship'. The only way I can think of is creating a good naming scheme in your vSphere vCenter inventory. This way you can easily filter out 'application' VMs and their parent, sibling and sisters based on a string unique to that application. Maintaining VCOPS defined applications and creating corresponding dashboards can be quite time consuming - but can be very rewarding in the end :smileylaugh:.
Oh no, another Virtualisation signature...
