A customer migrate their infrastructure from a 3rd party storage to a Nimbleenvironment.

VMvision is a feature within HPE InfoSight that provides deep visibility into the performance and resource utilization of virtual machines (VMs) running on HPE Nimble Storage arrays. It offers an agentless approach, meaning it does not require any additional software or agents to be installed on the VMs or hosts. Instead, VMvision leverages the vCenter server appliance credentials to directly gather data from the VMware environment.

Once integrated with vCenter, VMvision can collect and analyze VM-level performance data, such as latency, IOPS, and throughput, in real-time. This data is then correlated with storage performance metrics, allowing administrators to easily identify bottlenecks and optimize VM performance. The agentless nature of VMvision simplifies the deployment process and reduces the management overhead associated with performance monitoring.

Unlike traditional performance monitoring tools that may require configuring SNMP traps or deploying agents on each VM, VMvision’s integration with InfoSight streamlines the process by using existing vCenter APIs to gather the necessary data. This approach not only ensures a seamless integration but also enhances the accuracy of the performance insights provided by InfoSight.
