Dashboard for Latency and Packet Loss for all VM's

Hello Great Minds of Thwack,

Looking for some help as usual.....looking to build a Dashboard / Graph that shows the Network Latency and Packet Loss for all the VM's in a Datacentre. I can build a report for this, but haven't wrapped my brain around the visualisation. Looking at Modern Dashobards and wanted to use the TimeSeries widget but it only support PerfStack it seems. I potentially need to report on 500 VM's.....and so far nothing is working for us. We have 2024.3 HCO for reference. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks as always

Even if you could display a timeseries or won't let you load 500 rows. That's asking for a page to take 40 seconds to load.

Any time I'm working on a scale of hundreds or thousands i move to a model of only showing broken things. Wouldn't be too hard to display a table of nodes where the current response was above the warning thresholds and have it generate a link to an individual perfstack of the specific node showing its perfstack for latency over time.

Remote Ping using any Network Device this might help you get a Powershell monitor for latency and packet loss. Unsure if you can put this on a dashboard. @kpmarcin any ideas?

That's a decent solution usually....our challenge was the latency and packet loss show up somewhat randomly so a larger representation might help us to identify the underlying pattern.
