The compute topology displays the relationship between clusters and hosts as well as hosts and VMs. You can view the alarms for the hosts and VMs as well as the CPU usage, memory usage, and storage usage of each cluster.
On the top navigation bar, click Resources.
From the left navigation pane, select Topologies > Compute.
Top tool bar
Select : In this mode, you can select and drag the icons in the topology. The mouse is in this mode by default.
