System Status

When the System Status icon in the navigation bar on the left side of the Web UI indicates there is an Alert, click the icon to access the System Alerts tab in the System Status window. From the System Alerts tab, you can view and acknowledge alerts. When viewing an alert, the following information is displayed:

• The time of the incident that triggered the alert.
• The host system on which the incident occurred.
• A description of the alert.
• The value of the alert. This value represents something different for each alert type. The description of the alert tells you what the value means in each case.
• A check mark icon you can click to acknowledge the alert. Once you acknowledge it, it is no longer displayed by default. To display all alerts, including acknowledged alerts, you can click the Show all alerts link in the System Alerts tab.
