Let me quickly show you the dashboard and then I will help you build this in your vROps instance:
- CPU Usage %
- CPU Contention %
- Memory Usage %
- Memory Contention %
- Network Workload %
- Virtual Disk Latency (ms) aggregate for all disks in the VM
Well, if this interests you then let’s see how we can get this dashboard. To begin with go ahead and download the following file by clicking on the link below. This is the original export of the dashboard which we will import later:-
Click here – HELPDESK-DASHBOARD EXPORT
Let’s start building the dashboard now:-
1- Login to vRealize Operations with a user who has privileges to create a new dashboard.
3- Under Manage Metric Config, click on ResKndMetric directory and click on the + Sign to create a new XML named – vmperf.xml
Paste the following xml code in blue color on the right pane and click on Save. A screenshot follows to guide you.
4- Now let’s import the dashboard file which we downloaded before. Click on Content -> Dashboards – > Settings Button -> Import Dashboards.
5- Select the HELPDESKDB.json file you downloaded earlier and click on OK to import the dashboard.
The above step would create the dashboard for you. Let us quickly share the dashboard as well.
6- Under the Dashboards Tab, Click on the settings button again and click on Share Dashboards.
7 – Now select the newly created HELPDESK Dashboard and drag & drop it on the groups with whom you want to share the same.
Great job as always Sunny!Thanks

vROPs version: 6.1.0.3038036 build 3038036Thank you for sharing. I'm fairly new to vROps. As a test case I did the things as required in the blogpost.Everything seems to be ok except for the overview 'Search for a VM'.For instance a vm is reported more than once. In my specific case 21 times. Only one of these items is reported with the badge|health 100. This is also the only item which contains data in the 'key performance metrics' view.My question; how can I filter those other 20 useless items out of the view?Cheers,Johan.

Looks like you have extra objects which are stale. You can get rid of deleted resources by adjusting the retention period for deleted / non-existent resources under Administration -> Global Settings.
