Capacity report and dashboard

Hello Guys,

I would like to see a capacity dashboard and report some way to give a view of the capacity utilization of clusters.

Would be good to get a view of all 3 nodes VSANs to start with that have > 66%  storage usage.

 

My infra

vROps 8.2

35 vSANs Clusters (3 nodes each)

Thanks,

it the built-in dashboards, views and reports don't match your requirements, you can build your own. (https://docs.vmware.com/en/vRealize-Operations/8.2/com.vmware.vcom.core.doc/GUID-0ABB810B-0496-48CF-...)

Making an 'object list' with a filter for (child?) vsan that uses >66% storage should not be too difficult. Filter for object type 'vsan cluster' with an advanced filter for vSAN|Diskspace|Diskspace Used(%)

If you find the dashboard building too complex, some very nice dashboards are retrievable from the internet

Thank you so much for your help bro, sorry for my delayed response I was sick.

I have tried to do that as you mentioned but didn't work

Please if you can create a simple example will be great.

 

Thanks

If the canned Cluster Capacity Dashboard or the Capacity Summary Dashboard don't work for you, I'd suggest that you check out VMIgnite. He's posted a number of useful dashboards that should cover what you're after and then some.

I believe he also has most of his dashboards on code exchange as well.
