Actions: Hypervisor Loom Dialog (showLoom)

Tip When configuring NNMi to work with your VMware implementation, use the DNS hostname of the ESXi host.

Launch a Loom Dialog to see detailed information about a particular hypervisorThe virtual machine manager in charge of delegating various aspects from a pool of resources to become virtual devices. The delegations might be static or dynamic, depending on the manufacture's implementation. The type of virtual machines being generated depends on the manufacturer's implementation. or one of the resources being provided by that hypervisor. In the URL string, you must include one or more attributes that enables NNMi to find a specific hypervisor or one of the resources being provided by that hypervisor. If more than one object meets the criteria, NNMi opens the first one found. When designating more than one attribute, separate each with a semicolon character.

To launch a particular Hypervisor Loom Dialog, use the following URL:

http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showLoom&objtype= Node&nodename= <x>

http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showLoom&objtype= Node&objattrs= name= <x>

http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showLoom&objtype= Node&objattrs= hostname= <x>

http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showLoom&objtype= Node&objattrs= snmpAgent.agentSettings.managementAddress= <x>

http://<serverName>:<portNumber>/nnm/launch?cmd= showLoom&objtype= Node&objattrs= systemName= <x>

Note If the NNMi Web server uses the https protocol, use https instead of http.

<serverName> = the fully-qualified domain name of the NNMi management server (values allowed here are determined by the Enable URL Redirect setting in User Interface Configuration, see Configure the NNMi User Interface)

<portNumber> = the NNMi HTTP port number
