24.4.1About the Dashboard

The Dashboard provides a graphical representation of the general health status of several managed resources in your data center. From the Dashboard, you can immediately see the areas that need your attention. For direct access to resources needing your attention, select the resource name for a filtered view.

Each time you log in to the appliance, the Dashboard is the first screen you see. To view the dashboard graphs, select Dashboard from the main menu.

Only those resources you are authorized to view or manage appear on the Dashboard.

See “How to interpret the Dashboard graphs” (page 176) to learn more about the resource health and capacity information that appears on the Dashboard.
