The Dashboard provides an at-a-glance look into the condition of the system and notification of any critical issues that require immediate action.
The Dashboard is the home page that displays after you log in to the system. It contains high-level information about the system and is not a replacement for the Performance page or the system view. The Dashboard contains sections for performance, capacity, and system health that provide an overall understanding of what is happening on the system.
The Performance section on the Dashboard displays a graph with up to 5 minutes of data from the performance of a specific system or a comparison of the performance of the nodes.
The Capacity section on the Dashboard provides an overall view of system capacity through physical capacity, thin provisioning, and compressed capacity.The capacity displays as actual capacity and also as a percentage of the total capacity.
The System Health section on the Dashboard provides a holistic view of the system through tiles of data that represents different components that make up the system. A tile contains one type of component, but it can contain multiple items of the same type. For example, a Fibre Channel port is a component, so it is contained in a tile, but the Fibre Channel tile can contain multiple Fibre Channel ports.For more information about tiles, see the topic on system health tiles.
The current software version number and the cluster ID are displayed above the Connectivity components category.
The Mini-Dashboard provides an at-a-glance look at the total, read, and write latency, bandwidth, and IOPS performance metrics for the system. The Mini-Dashboard displays at the bottom of the management GUI after you leave the Dashboard page. The information can be used in the following ways:
