Monitoring virtual machine instances

Use reports and charting to monitor the status and performance of your deployed virtual application instances and machines.

Before you begin

Your applications must be deployed and all of your virtual machines started before you can monitor results.

The user who deployed the application, along with those with access or the administrator, can see the monitoring information for the deployment.
