Monitoring System Health

Monitor and display the current state of your system hardware status using one of two methods in the DR Series system:
Using Dashboard→ Health , you can access the Health page from the navigation panel.
In the Dashboard page, you can access the Health page via the HW State link.
For more information about the Health page, see Health.

Using the Dashboard Page to Monitor System Health

To use the Dashboard page to display and monitor the current DR Series system hardware status, complete the
following:
1.
Click Dashboard in the navigation panel.
The Dashboard page is displayed and provides a HW State link in the System Status bar (for example, HW State:
optimal). (You can also access the Health page when you click Dashboard→ Health.)
2.
Click the HW State link (in this example, optimal) to display the Health page.
The Health page provides a System tab, which is the default displayed on this page. If you have installed one, your
system will also include an Enclosure tab (this release supports up to two expansion shelves being installed). The
System tab displays front and rear views of the chassis showing the disk drive locations in the front view (0–11), the
OS internal drives (12–13), and the fans, system connectors, and power supplies in the rear view. If installed and
clicked, the Enclosure tab displays front and rear views of the enclosure chassis showing the physical disk
locations (0–11) in the front view, and the enclosure connectors, fans, and pluggable drive locations in the rear
view. In addition, the service tag of the expansion shelf is displayed. Both the System and Enclosure tabs display
the System Hardware Health summary table that lists the current status of all major components in the DR Series
system or its expansion shelf, respectively.
NOTE: This method is convenient when you are already at the Dashboard page and want to display more
information about current System Status.
