Every colored segment reflects the number of VMs with a specific state — VMware Tools not installed (red), VMware Tools need to be updated to the latest version (yellow), VMware Tools up-to-date and running (green) and VMware Tools installed but not running for some reason (grey).

Virtual Machines by Power State

The chart groups VMs in the vApp by power state. Every colored segment reflects the number of VMs with a specific power state — powered off VMs (red), suspended VMs (yellow) and powered on VMs (green).
