6.10. Monitoring —
If you click the Monitoring tab on the top navigation bar, the Monitoring category and links appear.
These pages, which require Monitoring entitlements, enable you to view the results of probes you
have set to run against Monitoring-entitled systems and manage the configuration of your monitoring
infrastructure.
Initiate monitoring of a system through the Probes tab of the System Details page. Refer to
Section 6.4.2.9, "System Details"
list of available probes.
6.10.1. Probe Status —
The Probe Status page is shown by default when you click Monitoring in the top navigation bar.
The Probe Status page displays the summary count of probes in the various states and provides a
simple interface to find problematic probes quickly. Please note that the probe totals in the tabs at the
top of the page may not match the numbers of probes displayed in the tables below. The counts at the
top include probes for all systems in your organization, while the tables display probes on only those
systems to which you have access through the System Group Administrator role. Also, the probe
counts displayed here may be out of sync by as much as one minute.
The following list describes each state and identifies the icons associated with them:
•
— Critical - The probe has crossed a CRITICAL threshold.
•
— Warning - The probe has crossed a WARNING threshold.
•
— Unknown - The probe is not able to accurately report metric or state data.
•
— Pending - The probe has been scheduled but has not yet run or is unable to run.
•
— OK - The probe is running successfully.
The Probe Status page contains tabs for each of the possible states, as well as one that lists all
probes. Each table contains columns indicating probe state, the monitored system, the probes used,
and the date and time the status was last updated.
