FEATURES
Actionable Intelligence
Provides active or predictive performance and placement recommendations that can be run
immediately, or scheduled to run at a select time.
Heterogeneous virtualization management
Manage both VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V environments through a single pane of glass.
Virtualization performance monitoring and management
Proactively monitor and analyze virtualization-specic performance problems in vSphere and
Hyper-V environments.
Full application stack visibility and contextual awareness
The AppStack™ dashboard will give you contextual awareness of the performance and mapping
of your applications and their dependence from the virtualization and storage layers.
Performance and data metric correlation
Using the PerfStack™ dashboard, you can cross-stack performance data and metrics across
your virtualization, storage, applications, systems, and networks systems, allowing for quicker
problem identication.
Virtualization management actions
Integration with the Orion Platform gives you virtualization management actions, such as power
on/o, suspend, and reboot a VM, as well as the ability to take and delete snapshots.
Migration management actions
With VMware vSphere Storage vMotion®, you can migrate VMs to a dierent host. Also, VM disks
can be migrated to a dierent data store or shared cluster volume using Storage vMotion.
Intelligent script-based automation
Execute management actions through customized scripts for maximum optimization of virtualized
resources.
Alert remediation
Congure an alert to trigger a management action based on set thresholds.
Enhanced virtualization metrics
Integration with the Orion Platform gives you more VM metrics data. Get access to features in
the Orion Platform, such as role-based access control, web-based reporting, alerting, improved
virtualization management, and a synchronization wizard.
VDI performance monitoring and management
Monitor Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) performance, quickly troubleshoot issues, and easily
plan VDI rollouts.

DATASHEET: VIRTUALIZATION MANAGER
VM rightsizing and capacity planning
Manage, plan, and optimize VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V virtual infrastructure capacity.
Virtualization dashboards
Get at-a-glance insight into the performance, capacity, conguration, and usage of your virtualized
infrastructure.
VM sprawl control
Find stale, zombie, and overallocated VMs, add or remove CPU and RAM, and delete orphaned
VMDKs.
Virtualization performance alerts
Quickly discover and act on performance issues using flexible, out-of-the-box alerts within
Virtualization Manager. It triggers alerts when a VM fails to respond during the expected interval.
Integrating with the Orion Platform allows you to set dynamic thresholds from baselines, and
receive alerts when your virtual appliance is about to reach warning or critical states.
Virtualization conguration management
Track VM and host congurations over time to determine if your virtual environment conguration
is performing optimally.
Virtualization dependency mapping and historical forensics
Map dependencies and perform forensic troubleshooting and problem analysis.
Virtualization chargeback and showback automation
Govern chargeback/showback IT, infrastructure, and cloud services.
INTEGRATES WITH APPLICATION STACK MANAGEMENT BUNDLE
Integration with SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor
When you integrate Virtualization Manager with SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor, you can
see a dashboard view of the health and status of your applications, as well as all dependent virtual
server, host, cluster, and datastore information that supports the application and its virtual server.
Integration with SolarWinds Web Performance Monitor
When you integrate Virtualization Manager with SolarWinds Web Performance Monitor, you can
see a dashboard view of the user experience and overall performance of internal (CRM, ERP,
intranet) and customer-facing web applications. Drill into website load times and page load speed
by location, waterfall charts for heaviest page elements, and more.
Integration with SolarWinds Storage Resource Monitor
Virtualization Manager integrates with SolarWinds Storage Resource Monitor to give you a more
detailed view of your virtual disks. You can drill through a datastore all the way to the LUN and
array level.
