I have vmware view data going into splunk and i currently send alerts to an email group if a pooled image (TotalVMs>1) has less then 3 vms available (availableVMs is <3).
However, i would like to create a dashboard for this to be displayed as well. Showing a pie chart of TotalVMs/availablevms/busyvms/poweredoffvms.
All of this information is in one line in splunk, however I have about 20-30 pools (working on consolidation) and would like the dashboard to show all of the pools and a pie chart for each with the status mentioned above. Here are 3 lines extract from my log upload from vmware view broker. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
