You can view information about the zone from a platform perspective, or for a specific zone. Zones appear in a Solaris Zone Virtualization Platform page and each global zone, kernel zone, and non-global zone has its own virtual server page.
The Solaris Zone Virtualization Platform page provides general information about the zone, such as open incidents, CPU usage, memory resources, number of running and configured zones, and a list of all zones for the global zone and their states.
The Virtualization Platform is the container on which zones run. Go to the Virtualization Platform page to see the list of zones (virtual servers) running on a virtual platform. Click a zone to see the zone's home page.
The Summary displays details and metrics for the selected zone:
Dashlets: A series of dashlets at the top of the page contains summary information and might be associated with a more detailed information that is in a tab.
Tabs: A series of tabs on the right side of the page link to more detailed information, including CPU and memory performance.
The top of the page contains a series of dashlets that provide a quick view of top statistics. Click the small button below the row of dashlets to toggle to the next series of dashlets. Click the icon below the toggle icons to minimize the dashlets.
The Virtualization Platform dashlets provide the following types of information:
Platform status

Open incidents
Guest configurations
Distribution of the CPU and memory consumers per zone
