Terms in this definition
- log
Text written by a component to record something that happened. VCF Operations for logs takes these in, and after integration with VCF Operations they can be searched from its Analyze page and Log Analysis widget.
- VMware Cloud Foundation
Broadcom's platform for private cloud. It unifies management of NSX, vSAN, vSphere, VCF Automation and VCF Operations as one fleet; VVF, by contrast, lacks automation and cloud management.
- FORMAT
A DAX function that turns a value into text according to a format string, for instance "MMMM" to show a month's name. Since the output is text, numeric operations can't use it, and dynamic format strings were introduced to get around that.
