Understand the System Information Gauge

The System Information gauge:

•Tells you the installed release version of your DMM server software.

•Tells you the serial number of your DMM appliance.

•Measures free space and used space for:

–The content partition on your DMM appliance hard drive.

–The content partition on your Show and Share appliance hard drive.
