You can view warning information about potential problems and required actions on the Notifications widget on the Appliance Dashboard.

About this task

The Notifications widget refreshes automatically after every two minutes to display the most recent state or condition of the Identity Manager virtual appliance.

    Identity Manager server restart required 
    Appliance restart required 
    Middleware components not configured 
    The disk space utilization has exceeded the warning threshold.
    
  2. Take appropriate actions as necessary.

    Identity Manager server restart required
    

    If a message for restarting the Appliance Dashboard is displayed, restart the virtual machine from the vSphere console. This condition occurs only if you did not restart after your first configuration.
