Use resource list pages as a central location for viewing the condition of storage systems, servers, hypervisors, switches, and fabrics.

Procedure

  1. In the menu bar, go to the type of top-level resource that you want to view.
    For example, if you want to view the condition of switches, go to Network > Switches.
  2. To view the total number of different conditions that were detected for the type of resource, check the condition icons on the resource list page.
    The number next to the icon represents how many occurrences of each condition were detected.
    For example, if 15 switches are monitored, but five switches have internal resources with a warning status, two switches have internal resources with an unreachable status, and three switches have internal resources with an error status, the following condition information is displayed:

    Normal condition icon 5 Normal

    Warning condition icon 5 Warning

    Unreachable condition icon 2 Unreachable

    Error condition icon 3 Error
