Systems summary

Use this page to view high-level systems status, identify failing physical components, or identify problematic logical objects.

Introduction

This page initially displays the status for all resources of the storage complex that you are currently logged into. A 'normal' status message is displayed when all resources of the storage complex are operating normally. The summary table is displayed only if a problem exists. You must select a resource in the summary table before you can view logs, status information, or physical summary information about the problem.
