# Home view
|
|
|
|
This is the home view - what you see when you access your Xen Orchestra URL. It displays all running VMs. This can be configured to your needs (see the "Filters section" below).
|
|
|
|
If you don't have any servers connected, you'll see a panel telling you to add a server:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Add a XenServer host
|
|
|
|
Just click on "Add server", enter the IP of a XenServer host (ideally the pool master if in a pool):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After clicking on connect, the server is displayed as connected:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now go back to the Home view (or click on the "Xen Orchestra" title on the top left of the screen), you'll see the default home view of VM objects.
|
|
|
|
## VMs
|
|
|
|
By default, this view groups all **running VMs** on your connected server:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's take a quick tour:
|
|
|
|
- the global menu is on the left, you can collapse it by clicking on the icon 
|
|
- the home view has a header with a type selector (VMs, hosts or pools), a filter zone and a button to create new VMs
|
|
- the VM list also has a header (number of filtered VMs and total VMs) and assisted filters (by pool, host and tags) and a sort menu (by name, memory etc.). You can also expand all VMs details here with the icon 
|
|
|
|
> Pro Tip: you can edit a VM name, description and even current host by long clicking on the field
|
|
|
|
### Bulk actions
|
|
|
|
You can select multiple objects (eg VMs) at once to perform a bulk action. The master checkbox will select all, or you can select anything yourself.
|
|
|
|
After selecting one or more object, an action bar is displayed:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will execute the action for all selected objects!
|
|
|
|
## Hosts
|
|
|
|
All host objects are displayed:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You have power status, name, description, number of CPU cores, total memory, management IP and pool name displayed. You can also edit these by long clicking.
|
|
|
|
> Pro Tip: If hosts have missing patches, you'll see a red dot with the total patches missing. Click on it to go the patch section of the host. See this blog post on [patches for XenServer](https://xen-orchestra.com/blog/hotfix-xs70e004-for-xenserver-7-0/) for more details.
|
|
|
|
## Pools
|
|
|
|
All your pools are displayed here:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also see missing patches in red.

> Did you know? Even a single XenServer host is inside a pool!
