# VMware vSphere Infrastructure Summary

The VMware vSphere infrastructure summary dashboard provides the health status overview for the selected virtual environment segment.

The dashboard is available for the following infrastructure levels:

- Virtual infrastructure (root node)
- Virtual infrastructure container (such as folder, resource pool, host, cluster, datacenter or vCenter Server)

### Host Status, Datastores Status, Virtual Machines Status

The charts reflect the status of virtual infrastructure objects.

Every chart segment represents the number of objects in a certain state — objects with errors (red), objects with warnings (yellow) and healthy objects (green). Click a chart segment or a legend label to drill down to the list of alarms with the corresponding status for the selected type of virtual infrastructure objects.

### Latest Alarms

The list displays the latest 15 alarms that were triggered for objects in the selected virtual environment segment. Click a link in the **Source** column to drill down to the list of alarms triggered for a specific virtual infrastructure object.

### Alarms by Object

The list displays 15 objects with the highest number of alarms.

The value in the **Alarms** column shows the number of errors and warnings for an object. For example, 3/1 means that there are 3 error alarms and 1 warning alarm triggered for the object. Click a link in the **Source** column to drill down to the list of alarms related to a specific virtual infrastructure object.
