Chapter 4. Viewing relationships
4.1. Viewing relationships between physical servers and virtual hosts
CloudForms shows relationships between virtual host systems and physical servers and the virtual hosts for each physical-infrastructure provider. The topology view provides a graphical representation of the relationships, allowing you to easily navigate between connected nodes (see the following figure).
To display the topology view for a specific physical-infrastructure provider, complete the following steps.
- Navigate to Compute > Physical Infrastructure > Providers.
- Select the physical-infrastructure provider to be viewed.
From the overview section, select Topology to display the Topology page. From this page, you can perform the following actions:
- Hide or show all physical server by clicking Physical Servers.
- Hide or show all hosts by clicking Hosts.
- Hide or show all VMs by clicking VMs.
- Double-click or right-click a node in the graph to navigate to the summary pages for that node.
4.2. Viewing server relationships
You can view a list of all physical servers that are managed by a specific physical-infrastructure provider.
- Navigate to Compute > Physical Infrastructure > Providers.
- Select the physical-infrastructure provider to be viewed.
- Click Physical Servers in the Relationships section.
4.3. Viewing virtual-host relationships
You can view a list of physical servers that are associated with hosts that are managed by a specific physical-infrastructure provider.
- Navigate to Compute > Physical Infrastructure > Providers.
- Select the physical-infrastructure provider to be viewed.
- Click Physical Servers with Host button in the Relationships section.
You should see a list of physical servers that are associated with hosts as shown below.
